At a Case Management Conference for appeals concerning Official Plan and Zoning By-law amendments in the City of Kingston, the Tribunal considered requests for party and participant status.
The Tribunal granted participant status to numerous individuals whose requests were not objected to by the appellant, deferring the objected requests to a future CMC.
The Tribunal also granted party status to No Clearcuts Kingston Inc., applying the Oakville factors and finding that the group's participation would advance the public interest without causing prejudice or a multiplicity of proceedings.
A further CMC was scheduled to finalize the procedural order and issues list.
