Is the OMB really a factor? Since the Region owns the site, they have to approve anyway, as site owner, and if they approve as owner presumably they will approve as zoning authority. It wouldn’t make sense for the Region, with the developer, to appeal the Region’s planning decisions to the OMB.
I agree a lot of the other factors make some sense to me. I hope we see some movement before too long, but it’s definitely not an ordinary site and that might make it harder to find somebody to work on it.
