day of June, 2025
UPON APPEAL having been brought by 2085308 Ontario Limited et al., under subsection 17 (36) of the Planning Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. P. 13, as amended, regarding the adoption of Official Plan Amendment No. 95 for the Glendale Secondary Plan by the Town of Niagara-on-the-Lake;
AND THIS MATTER having come before the Tribunal on Friday, June 6, 2025, by videoconference for a first Case Management Conference (“CMC”), whereby it marked as Exhibit 1 the Affidavit of Service of Grant Bivol, dated April 25, 2025, attesting to proper Notice having been given for this first CMC;
AND THE TRIBUNAL, having received two requests for Party status from White Oaks Tennis World Inc. and 1526882 Ontario Inc. (jointly as one party) and Julie Smith (collectively the “Proposed Non-Appellant Parties”);
AND THE TRIBUNAL, having considered the submissions made by the Proposed Non-Appellant Parties, as well as the Statutory Parties, granted Non-Appellant Party status to White Oaks Tennis World Inc. and 1526882 Ontario Inc, jointly as one Party. The Tribunal deferred consideration of the Party status request submitted by Ms. Smith to the next CMC. While Ms. Smith was not in attendance, her written request indicated that the short notice made participation in this event impractical. In the interest of procedural fairness, the Tribunal determined that her request will be addressed at the next scheduled CMC.
AND THE TRIBUNAL confirmed the Parties’ awareness of Tribunal-led mediation;
AND THE TRIBUNAL at the CMC having scheduled a second CMC to commence on Friday, September 19, 2025 at 10 a.m. by videoconference; with the following log-in credentials:
