The applicant appealed the Committee of Adjustment's denial of a consent application and two minor variance applications to sever a corner lot and build a detached dwelling on each new parcel.

The City of Toronto opposed the appeal, arguing the proposed lots were significantly undersized and out of character with the neighbourhood.

The appeal was dismissed and the original decision denying the applications was upheld.
