Tribunal approves settlement modifying Yonge Street North Secondary Plan, excluding specific site-specific appeals.
Multiple parties appealed the City of Toronto's adoption of Official Plan Amendment 615, which implements the Yonge Street North Secondary Plan.
Prior to the hearing, the City and several appellants reached a settlement modifying the OPA to prioritize the public realm, encourage diverse land uses, and support higher-order transit.
Relying on uncontested expert planning evidence, the Tribunal found the modified OPA 615 represents good land use planning and approved it in principle, save for several site-specific 'hived-off' appeals that will proceed separately.
