A ruling is an approval or a refusal at a hearing. Deferred and withdrawn files are left out, because neither says what the Committee decided. Fewer than 10 rulings in twelve months, so no approval rate is shown.

1 ruling that covers more than one lot, such as a lot split or a building on each of two lots, is not listed here, because each line shows the size and the homes of one lot.

Ward boundaries and the rules change, and none of this is a zoning opinion on a specific lot. Confirm what an address allows with a TESA Scan.
