The appellants appealed the Town's refusal of an Official Plan Amendment and Zoning By-law Amendment, and its failure to make a decision on a Consent application, to facilitate the creation of a new residential lot.
Prior to the hearing, the parties reached a settlement supporting the proposal.
Based on uncontroverted expert planning evidence, the Tribunal found the settlement proposal was consistent with provincial policies, conformed to regional and local official plans, and represented good planning.
The appeals were allowed, the amendments were approved, and provisional consent was granted subject to conditions.
