Zoning by-law amendment and site plan approved to permit overflow parking for long-term care facility.
The appellant appealed the Town of Shelburne's failure to render a decision on a Zoning By-law Amendment and Site Plan Application to permit a 17-space surface parking area and landscaped garden on a vacant lot.
The parking area was intended to serve an existing long-term care facility located nearby.
The Tribunal found that the proposed development constituted intensification by increasing the use of the land, made efficient use of existing infrastructure, and conformed to the Town's Official Plan policies as an appropriate secondary use.
The Tribunal allowed the appeals, directing the Town to amend the zoning by-law and approving the site plan.
