Appeals allowed in part to implement settlement removing density restrictions and retail frontage requirements.
The appellant appealed the City's passage of an Official Plan Amendment and Zoning By-law Amendment, which imposed density restrictions and ground-floor retail requirements on its properties.
Prior to the hearing, the parties reached a settlement to exempt the subject lands from the density restrictions, subject to a holding symbol for servicing capacity, and to delete the requirement for small inset stores within single-use retail frontages.
Relying on uncontested planning affidavit evidence, the Tribunal found the settlement consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement and in conformity with the Official Plan.
The appeals were allowed in part to implement the settlement.
