Only individuals, corporations and public bodies may appeal the Zoning By-law Amendment to the OLT. A Notice of Appeal may not be filed by an unincorporated association or group. However, a notice of appeal may be filed in the name of an individual who is a member of the association or the group on its behalf.

No person or public body shall be added as a party to the hearing of the appeal unless, before the Zoning By-law Amendment was passed, the person or public body made oral submissions at a public meeting or written submissions to Council or, in the opinion of the OLT, there are reasonable grounds to add the person or public body as a party.
