The City's review is pretty comprehensive. The developer's plans ignore pretty much every rule about massing and density - right down to ignoring visual stepbacks after five floors, not establishing a proper streetscape and ignoring the 45 degree rule at the back. Arguing against an additional 30' of height is not NIMBY-ism, especially when nobody is objecting to matching the height of existing condos on the block. The developer hasn't done their job of explaining why it's appropriate to exceed the plan by 50%.

It's also a bit rich for the developer to complain about delays when they haven't submitted all the updated docs for their revised plan. For those in the know, does this appeal have legs? Will the OMB give them everything the developer wants because the City didn't respond in time, or is this just a technicality by the City because they knew it would end up at OMB regardless?

"It's just a beautiful end-of-summer street festival where you eat tasty street food, listen to live music, catch up with friends and neighbours, and oppose the local condo development in the neighbourhood...as Canadian as hockey and maple syrup!"
 
The unfortunate thing is that most residents are so uniformed about basic things in this city, so they buy this kind of non-sense. These days, as long as you can make something up that makes a moderate amount of sense, someone will believe you even if it's not true.
