Smiths Falls council has asked staff for a report on potential reform of the Ontario Land Tribunal.
Other municipalities are calling for its dissolvement, and Smiths Falls has been asked to join that call.
Senior Planner Karl Grenke says it’s a provincial government arm which has disrupted municipality decisions in the past.
Grenke said the OLT hasn’t interfered with the town, and suggested caution in supporting the resolution.
Councilor Chris McGuire feels no more time is necessary on the matter as he doesn’t see this as an item council will support in the end.
Ultimately a report will be made and presented to Council.
