This Motion will authorize the City Solicitor to appeal the Applications to the Toronto Local Appeal Body, to attend the Toronto Local Appeal Body in opposition to the Applications, and to secure the necessary authorization and resources to support the City's appeal. This matter is urgent as the deadline to appeal the Committee of Adjustment's decision is approaching and the City Solicitor requires instructions to appeal.
