Consent applications for six residential lots approved subject to an engineered solution for fire flow.
The applicant sought to sever six new residential lots on Edgecliff Crescent in Garson.
The appellant appealed the City's approval of the consent applications, arguing that the development should proceed by way of a plan of subdivision due to insufficient fire flow in the area and the piecemeal nature of the development.
The Tribunal found that a plan of subdivision was not necessary and that the consent applications represented proper and orderly development.
The Tribunal allowed the appeal in part solely to add a condition requiring the implementation of an engineered solution to address the fire flow insufficiency, ensuring the health and safety of residents.
