The appellant appealed the municipality's approval of a zoning by-law amendment that permitted cluster housing dwellings and recognized existing setbacks on the subject property.

The parties reached a settlement to add site-specific criteria to the by-law to address the appellant's concerns.

The appeal was allowed in part to amend the by-law in accordance with the settlement.
