The Notice of Decision is attached. A neighbouring resident has appealed the Decision to the Toronto Local Appeal Body. This Motion will authorize the City Solicitor, and appropriate City Staff or outside consultants, to attend the Toronto Local Appeal Body in order to oppose the proposed minor variances requested in the Application. This Motion will also give the City Solicitor authority to negotiate a settlement of the appeal and retain outside consultants as necessary. This matter is time sensitive and urgent as the Decision has been appealed and the City Solicitor requires instructions to attend the hearing in opposition of the proposal.
