Consent to sever refused for failing to meet the 100-metre minimum lot frontage requirement.
The appellant appealed a Committee of Adjustment decision approving a consent to sever a rural property to create a new residential lot.
The appellant argued the proposed severed and retained lots, each with 75-metre frontages, failed to meet the 100-metre minimum lot frontage requirement for Minor Collector roads under the Official Plan and Zoning By-law.
The Tribunal agreed, finding the application did not conform to the Official Plan or Zoning By-law, was inconsistent with the Provincial Policy Statement regarding the protection of transportation corridors, and did not represent good land use planning.
The appeal was allowed and provisional consent was refused.
