Appeal allowed in principle for a 27-storey mixed-use development in downtown Burlington.
The Appellant appealed the City of Burlington's failure to make decisions on applications for official plan and zoning by-law amendments to permit a 27-storey mixed-use building.
The Tribunal found that the proposed development conforms with the City's 2008 Official Plan, the Growth Plan, and the Provincial Policy Statement.
The Tribunal held that the proposed height, massing, and urban design were appropriate for the downtown context and provided adequate transition.
The Tribunal also found the proposed parking supply and shadow impacts to be acceptable.
The appeal was allowed in principle, subject to conditions including a holding symbol related to environmental site remediation.
