Zoning by-law amendment appeal allowed on consent to permit shoreline residential development outside wetland areas.
The applicant appealed the Township's refusal to amend a zoning by-law to permit shoreline residential zoning and adjust environmental constraint boundaries on a property containing wetlands.
Following a settlement between the parties, the Tribunal heard uncontroverted expert planning evidence supporting the amendment.
The Tribunal found the proposal consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement, in conformity with the Growth Plan and Official Plan, and representative of good planning.
The appeal was allowed and the zoning by-law was amended.
