Tribunal approves settled Official Plan modifications allowing increased height and density along the Centre Street Corridor.
Several property owners appealed the City of Vaughan's 2010 Official Plan regarding policies affecting the Centre Street Corridor.
The parties reached a settlement proposing modified policies and map schedules to allow for increased building heights, density, and mixed uses along the transit corridor while ensuring appropriate transition to adjacent low-rise neighbourhoods.
The Tribunal denied a late request for Party status from a ratepayers association.
Accepting the uncontested expert planning evidence that the modified policies are consistent with the Provincial Policy Statement, conform with the Growth Plan and Regional Official Plan, and represent good planning, the Tribunal allowed the appeals in part and approved the modified policies.
