What does the Local Planning Appeal Tribunal (LPAT) primarily handle?

Hearing cases related to zoning bylaws, but not subdivision plans.
Creating provincial policy statements.
Hearing appeals relating to the Planning Act.
Approving each municipality's Official Plan.

The correct answer is: Hearing appeals relating to the Planning Act.

The Local Planning Appeal Tribunal (LPAT) primarily handles appeals relating to the Planning Act. The Planning Act governs land use planning in Ontario, and the LPAT plays a crucial role in resolving disputes or appeals related to planning decisions made by municipalities or other authorities. Option A is incorrect because LPAT does handle cases related to both zoning bylaws and subdivision plans. Option B is incorrect because the creation of provincial policy statements is not within the LPAT's primary responsibilities. Option D is incorrect because LPAT does not approve each municipality's Official Plan; rather, it deals with appeals and disputes regarding those plans.
