Motion to dismiss granted; zoning by-law amendment did not apply to appellant's property.
The City of Oshawa brought a motion to dismiss an appeal by the appellant regarding a City-wide Zoning By-law Amendment that introduced regulations for social service establishments.
The City argued that the amendment did not apply to the appellant's property, which was zoned R2 (Residential), and therefore the appellant did not meet the statutory precondition to appeal under section 34(19)2.2 of the Planning Act.
The Tribunal agreed with the City, finding that the R2 Zone excludes the relevant uses and that the amendment's provisions do not apply to the appellant's property.
The motion was granted and the appeal was dismissed.
