Appeal allowed and consent granted to sever residential lot into three parcels for townhouse development.
The appellant appealed a Committee of Adjustment decision refusing a consent application to sever a residential lot into three parcels for the development of street townhouses.
The City of Hamilton did not participate in the hearing.
Relying on uncontroverted expert land use planning evidence, the Tribunal found that the proposed severance represents gentle intensification, complies with the newly updated City Zoning By-law, and is consistent with the Provincial Planning Statement and the Urban Hamilton Official Plan.
The appeal was allowed and provisional consent was granted subject to conditions.
