At a Case Management Conference for appeals of a Zoning By-law Amendment, the Tribunal granted party status to the property owner and a neighbouring developer.
The appellants, who attended with limited-retainer counsel, requested an adjournment to retain specialized municipal counsel and respond to the applicant's motions for summary dismissal.
The Tribunal granted the adjournment, finding that the prejudice to the appellants of proceeding without proper counsel outweighed any prejudice to the applicant, and scheduled a second Case Management Conference to hear the motions and finalize the procedural order.
