Tribunal approves settlement for 495-unit residential subdivision, finding planning instruments meet statutory tests.
The appellant appealed the County's failure to make a decision on applications for an Official Plan Amendment, Zoning By-law Amendment, and Draft Plan of Subdivision to permit a 495-unit residential development.
The parties reached a settlement prior to the hearing.
Based on the uncontroverted expert planning evidence, the Tribunal found the proposed planning instruments had regard for provincial interests, were consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement, and conformed to the applicable official plans.
The Tribunal approved the amendments and the draft plan of subdivision subject to conditions.
