Appeal dismissed and minor variances authorized for duplex development on retained lot.
The appellant appealed a Committee of Adjustment decision granting minor variances to permit a reduced lot size, reduced frontage, and reduced parking spaces for a proposed duplex on a retained lot following a severance.
The Tribunal accepted the uncontroverted expert planning evidence that the variances met the four tests under s. 45(1) of the Planning Act, finding the proposal would co-exist harmoniously in the neighbourhood through creative infilling and intensification.
The appeal was dismissed and the variances were authorized.
