The respondent applied for an official plan amendment, zoning change, and subdivision approval, providing the prescribed information but refusing to provide additional information requested by the appellant municipality.
The municipality refused to forward the appeal record to the Ontario Municipal Board, arguing the 90-day period for a decision had not commenced.
The Court of Appeal held that under the Planning Act, the 90-day period begins once the prescribed information and fees are provided, regardless of whether additional requested information is supplied.
The appeal was dismissed, allowing the respondent to proceed directly to the OMB.
