Tribunal approves Official Plan Amendment settlement for residential development, finding lands are not provincially significant wetlands.
The applicant appealed the City's failure to adopt an Official Plan Amendment, Zoning By-law Amendment, and Draft Plan of Subdivision to permit a residential development with a townhouse block.
The parties reached a settlement regarding the Official Plan Amendment, agreeing that the subject lands are developable and not provincially significant wetlands.
The Tribunal allowed the appeal in part, approving the Official Plan Amendment based on expert planning and ecological evidence, and scheduled a further hearing to address the remaining zoning and subdivision appeals.
