Appeal allowed; development permit granted for seven residential units as proposal conforms to planning policies.
The applicant appealed the Town of Carleton Place's refusal to grant a development permit for the construction of seven residential units.
The Town argued the development was inconsistent with the Provincial Policy Statement and the Town's Official Plan, primarily citing urban design and architectural concerns.
The Tribunal accepted the expert evidence of the applicant's architect and planner, finding the development compatible with the surrounding neighbourhood, consistent with the PPS, and in conformity with the applicable Official Plans.
The appeal was allowed on an interim basis, contingent upon the parties entering into a development agreement and a common elements plan of condominium.
