Summary
|
|
The Town of Whitchurch-Stouffville (the Town) received a request under the Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (the Act ) for access to information about the new building permits issued by the Town during the month of May 1992. The requester sought access to: 1. Name of the owner (of the subject building or property). 2. Address of the owner. 3. Location of the property. 4. The intended use of the building or structure. 5. Type of work proposed. 6. Date of issuance of the building permit. 7. Name of the builder (if known). 8. Address of the builder (if known). The Town granted partial access to a summary report which it produces monthly and provides to Statistics Canada. This report contains, for each building permit issued during the month, information corresponding to Items 3, 4, 5 and 6 of the request, plus additional information not included in the request. The Town, relying on the exemption in section 14(1) of the Act , refused to provide access to information corresponding to Items 1, 2, 7 and 8 of the request, and deleted from the summary report provided to the requester the name of the applicant for each building permit, who could be either the owner or the builder. The Town informed the requester that it would provide him with the monthly summary reports, without requiring him to submit a request under the Act , for a fee of $70 per year. The requester appealed the Town's decision to deny access to the names and addresses of the property owners and the builders, and the annual fee for provision of the monthly summary reports. During mediation, the appellant withdrew his appeal with respect to the fee. However, mediation was unsuccessful with respect to the provision of access to the names and addresses, and notice that an inquiry was being conducted to review this aspect of the Town's decision was sent to the appellant and the Town. Representations were received from the Town, but not from the appellant.
