Appeal of minor variances for a six-storey mixed-use building dismissed; variances authorized.
The appellant appealed a decision of the City of Hamilton Committee of Adjustment granting minor variances to permit a six-storey mixed-use building.
The variances related to density, height, setbacks, gross floor area, landscaping, parking, and loading.
The Tribunal found that the variances met the four tests under section 45(1) of the Planning Act, noting that the proposed development was compatible with the surrounding area, provided appropriate transition, and supported intensification and transit policies.
The appeal was dismissed and the variances were authorized.
