The Ontario Land Tribunal held a Case Management Conference regarding appeals by 110 Sheppard East GP Inc. against the City of Toronto's refusal of Official Plan and Zoning By-law amendment applications.

The applications seek to permit a mixed-use development with 49 and 53-storey towers.

On consent of the parties, the Tribunal issued a Procedural Order to govern the proceedings leading up to a 10-day hearing scheduled to commence on July 20, 2026.

The appellant appealed the City's failure to make a decision on a site plan application for a 580-unit residential development.

At the first Case Management Conference, the registered owner of the subject property requested party status, noting ongoing civil litigation with the appellant regarding the purchase agreement and questioning the appellant's authority to appeal.

The Tribunal granted party status to the registered owner and scheduled a motion hearing to determine jurisdictional issues, including whether the appellant is an authorized agent and whether the appeal should be held in abeyance pending the civil litigation.
