Tribunal orders appeals heard together and scopes policy appeals to be site-specific at first CMC.
The Ontario Land Tribunal held a first Case Management Conference regarding appeals by the applicant against the City of North Bay's adoption of Official Plan and Zoning By-law amendments, as well as the refusal of consent and minor variance applications for a property on Trout Lake.
The Tribunal ordered that the appeals be heard together and scoped the policy appeals to be site-specific to the subject property.
Several area residents were granted participant status, and a second Case Management Conference was scheduled to allow the parties to finalize a procedural order and issues list.
Appeal allowed and draft plan of condominium approved for conversion of 60 rental townhouses.
The appellant appealed the City's refusal of an application to convert 60 existing rental townhouses to condominium tenure.
Prior to the hearing, the parties resolved all issues and agreed on conditions of approval.
Based on uncontested expert planning evidence, the Tribunal found the conversion consistent with provincial policies and the City's Official Plan, noting it would provide affordable ownership while protecting existing tenants.
The appeal was allowed and the draft plan of condominium was approved subject to conditions.
