File #		M-9200276


Institution/HIC		City of Vaughan


Summary		The City of Vaughan (the City) received a request under the Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (the Act ) for access to all reports made by inspectors from the By-law, Building, Fire, Building Standards and Health Departments who had been called to her home during the period of 1989-1992. During this period, the requester had called City inspectors on a number of occasions to lodge complaints of by-law violations about two residential properties. As the City believed that disclosure of the records might constitute an unjustified invasion of the personal privacy of two individuals (the affected parties), the City notified them pursuant to section 21 of the Act . The affected parties did not respond to the notification. The City identified a number of responsive records and provided access to some. It denied access to others pursuant to sections 8(1)(b) and 14(1) of the Act . The requester appealed the decision. Mediation was not successful and notice that an inquiry was being conducted to review the City's decision was sent to the City, the appellant and the affected parties. The City, the appellant, and one of the affected parties made representations.
