Minor variance for a second driveway on a corner lot authorized subject to conditions.
The applicant appealed the Town of Amherstburg Committee of Adjustment's denial of a minor variance to permit a second driveway on a corner lot.
The Tribunal applied the four-part test under s. 45(1) of the Planning Act.
Preferring the evidence of the applicant's land use planner, the Tribunal found that the variance maintained the intent of the Official Plan and Zoning By-law, was minor, and was desirable for the appropriate development of the land.
The appeal was allowed in part, authorizing the variance subject to conditions limiting the driveway's width and requiring a turn-around.
