Zoning by-law amendment appeal allowed to permit a single detached dwelling on private services.
The appellants appealed the Township's denial of a zoning by-law amendment to permit the construction of a single detached dwelling on private services on a 2.96-acre conditionally severed lot.
The subject property was designated 'Future Development' and located at the edge of the urban boundary.
The Township argued the development was premature pending a Municipal Comprehensive Review and that higher density was required.
The Tribunal allowed the appeal, preferring the appellants' planning evidence that the development was consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement, conformed to the County Official Plan, and would not impede future orderly development of the larger retained parcel.
