Tribunal approves settlements amending Vaughan's comprehensive zoning by-law to resolve multiple site-specific appeals.
The City of Vaughan brought motions for settlement approval regarding several appeals of its new Comprehensive Zoning By-law and Transition By-law.
The Tribunal accepted uncontested expert planning evidence that the proposed site-specific amendments to the by-laws were consistent with provincial policies and represented good planning.
The Tribunal approved the settlements, allowed the appeals in part to implement the site-specific exceptions, and deemed the by-laws in force for certain lands where appeals had been withdrawn.
Party status granted to community coalition at Case Management Conference for zoning by-law amendment appeal.
At a Case Management Conference regarding an appeal of the City of Toronto's failure to make a decision on a zoning by-law amendment for a 50-storey residential building, the Tribunal considered a request for party status from a local community coalition.
The coalition, previously granted participant status, retained an expert planner and sought party status to fully participate.
With no objections from the other parties, the Tribunal granted the coalition party status, scheduled a telephone conference call to finalize the issues list, and set a nine-day hearing for September 2024.
