The applicant appealed the City of Mississauga's failure to make decisions on applications for an Official Plan Amendment, Zoning By-law Amendment, and Site Plan to permit a 40-storey apartment building.

The City argued the building should be limited to 32 storeys and raised concerns about the floorplate size and amenity space.

The Tribunal allowed the appeal in part, approving the 40-storey height and 850 square metre floorplate, finding them compatible with the surrounding context.

However, the Tribunal required the amenity space to be increased to the standard 5.6 square metres per unit and excluded a narrow balcony from the amenity space calculation.
