Minor variance appeal allowed for construction of a two-storey detached dwelling, subject to conditions.
The applicant appealed the Town of Oakville Committee of Adjustment's refusal of a minor variance application to permit the construction of a two-storey detached dwelling.
The requested variances related to the number of garages, garage projection, dwelling depth, main wall length, and dwelling height.
The Ontario Land Tribunal allowed the appeal, finding that the proposed development met the four tests under section 45(1) of the Planning Act.
The Tribunal concluded that the variances maintained the general intent and purpose of the Official Plan and Zoning By-law, were minor in nature, and were desirable for the appropriate development of the land, subject to conditions.
