The following excerpt is from Green v London (City), 2020 CanLII 24854 (ON LPAT):

Winkler C.J.O. goes on in paragraph 44 to quote Bouck J. in Capital Regional District v. Saanich (District), 1980 CarswellBC 302, who says at his paragraph 57: The [municipality] must set out in its official … plan what it is trying to do. When it fails in its purpose, others cannot fill in the gaps because they are then placing themselves in the position of the [municipality] which alone is responsible for the decision.
