Item - 2025.NY25.33

North York Community Council:

1. Directed the Chief Planner and Executive Director to report back to North York Community Council quarterly with a breakdown of planning applications that have been appealed to the Ontario Land Tribunal, and this breakdown should include the address, the status of the application, and the decisions made by the Ontario Land Tribunal.

2. Directed the Chief Planner and Executive Director to include, in the report requested in Part 1 above, a brief summary of basic Ontario Land Tribunal processes as they pertain to residential development applications.

Given the unprecedented number of planning applications that are being appealed to the Provincial Ontario Land Tribunal, it is critical that local councillors have a comprehensive and up-to-date list of applications before the Ontario Land Tribunal, both current active cases and past decisions made by this Provincial Tribunal, so this information can be shared with constituents who are directly impacted by Ontario Land Tribunal decisions.
