The Ontario Land Tribunal issued an amending decision to correct a technical or typographical error in its previous decision dated May 13, 2026.

The amendment replaced paragraph 6 to clarify the applicant's position regarding private septic system requirements and the scope of the Environmental Assessment.

The Tribunal convened a Case Management Conference regarding appeals by Ponderosa Nature Resort against the City of Hamilton's failure to make a decision on site-specific applications to amend the Official Plan and Zoning By-law, and for Site Plan approval.
