At its hearing on September 18th, 2024, the Committee of Adjustment refused the Application (the "Decision"). The Notice of Decision is attached as Attachment 1. The applicant has appealed the Decision to the Toronto Local Appeal Body. This motion will authorize the City Solicitor to attend the Toronto Local Appeal Body ("TLAB") with appropriate City Staff or outside consultants, in order to oppose the 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 City Solicitor requires instructions to obtain party status in the appeal and subsequently attend the hearing in opposition to the proposal.
