The owners appealed a Committee of Adjustment decision denying minor variances to permit the demolition and replacement of a two-storey house.
The requested variances included increases to the permitted floor space index and building height.
The tribunal found that the proposed design, which included step-backs to minimize impact on adjacent properties, was sensitive to the neighbourhood character and met the four tests under the Planning Act.
The appeal was allowed and the variances were authorized subject to conditions.
