From the Honorable Yasir Naqvi, MPP (Ottawa Centre) and Attorney General:
*************************************************************
As you know, our government recently passed the Building Better Communities and Conserving Watersheds Act, 2017. This legislation replaced the Ontario Municipal Board (OMB) with the Local Planning Appeal Tribunal, which will help ensure that proceedings before the tribunal are faster, fairer and more affordable.
We want to make sure that we do everything possible to give people a stronger voice in the planning of their own communities. So, I am pleased to invite you to a town hall discussion on Saturday, March 10, 2018 from 1:00pm to 3:00pm at the Churchill Seniors Recreation Centre, 345 Richmond Road, Ottawa.
I am looking forward to sharing an update on the legislation, and hearing your questions and feedback. If you would like to participate in this session, or need more information, please contact Ben Charlebois by email at Ben.Charlebois@ontario.ca.
Thank you, and I look forward to hearing from you!
Sincerely,
Yasir Naqvi
MPP, Ottawa Centre
Attorney General
