Appeal dismissed; front yard variance authorized for new dwelling as it met the four tests.
The appellant appealed a Committee of Adjustment decision granting a front yard variance and refusing a side yard variance for a proposed detached dwelling.
The appellant raised concerns regarding building height, shadow impacts, and lot coverage.
Relying on the unshaken expert planning and engineering evidence provided by the municipality, the Tribunal found that the front yard variance met the four tests under the Planning Act, while the side yard variance did not.
The appeal was dismissed and the front yard variance was authorized.
