Appeals allowed in part on an interim basis to implement settlement for 49-storey mixed-use development.
The appellant appealed the City of Toronto's refusal of Official Plan and Zoning By-Law Amendments to permit a mixed-use development at 1366 Yonge Street.
Following mediation, the parties reached a settlement for a revised 49-storey building.
Participants objected to the loss of existing medical office uses.
The Tribunal accepted uncontested expert planning evidence that the revised proposal, which includes live-work units and a right of first return for a medical lab, represents good planning, is consistent with provincial policies, and conforms to the Official Plan.
The appeals were allowed in part on an interim basis, with final approval withheld pending satisfaction of conditions.
