On May 5, 2016 the Ontario Municipal Board heard the City’s motion requesting an amendment to Zoning By-law 569-2013 to extend the Transition Clause Repeal date by 2 years. The Memorandum of Oral Decision and Order issued September 13, 2016 amends the transition clause repeal period in regulation 2.1.3.8(1) of this zoning by-law from the current 3 year period to 5 years.
The City of Toronto will continue to apply the Transition Clause provisions found in Chapter 2 of By-law 569-2013 until May 9, 2018.
