The appellant appealed a zoning by-law amendment that added new restrictions to its property after a mapping error had inadvertently rezoned it from Rural to Open Space and Environmental Protection.
The parties reached a settlement to restore the Rural zoning for most of the property while maintaining Environmental Protection zoning and a holding provision for wetland areas.
Based on uncontroverted expert planning evidence, the Tribunal found the settlement consistent with provincial and municipal policies and allowed the appeal, directing the municipality to amend the zoning by-law accordingly.
