Summary
|
|
The City of Elliot Lake (the City) received a request under the Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (the Act ) for the identities of individuals who had responded to a "questionnaire seeking individuals who would be interested in lot development on Spine Road". More specifically, the request stated: "Whether `letters' or a list, or simply copies of the questionnaires, I am seeking to learn who, in fact, answered what [the Economic Development Corporation of the City] is calling a `market survey'". The City responded to the request by indicating to the requester that copies of the completed questionnaires could be released, subject to the severance of the names, addresses and telephone numbers of the individual respondents under section 14(1) of the Act . The requester appealed the denial of access. During the course of mediation, the appellant claimed that, based on some materials received from the City, there should be 20 completed questionnaires responsive to the request, instead of the 18 identified by the City. Mediation was not successful and notice that an inquiry was being conducted to review the decision of the City was sent to the appellant, the City and the individuals named in the records (the affected persons). Representations were received from the appellant, the City, and some of the affected persons. The records at issue in this appeal are those portions of the questionnaires which contain the names and addresses and, in some instances, telephone numbers of the individuals who filled out the questionnaires. These questionnaires are forms entitled "Cottage Lots and Residential Building Lots for Sale?" and were printed in a local newspaper. They state, in part: The [EDC] needs your help to identify the potential local demand for cottage lots and/or executive style residential building lots in Elliot Lake. If you or someone you know is interested in purchasing this type of property in Elliot Lake, please mark an (X) in the appropriate box. ... Yes, I am interested in purchasing a executive-style residential lot on Spine Road. Please include your name and address (optional) and forward your response to: [the Economic Development Office]
