As the city filed it

On June 11, 2020, the North York Panel of the Committee of Adjustment approved an application brought by the owner of 10 Harnish Cres (the "Applicant") for a minor variance pertaining to lot coverage to permit the construction of a new dwelling. In a report from the Director, Community Planning, North York District dated March 23, 2020, Community Planning Staff recommended that the Application be refused. This Motion will authorize the City Solicitor to appeal the Application to the Toronto Local Appeal Body, to attend the Toronto Local Appeal Body in opposition to the Application, and to secure the necessary authorization and resources to support the City's appeal.
