This document explains how no one is reading the legislation, in its entirety, to know the intent of the legislation. This is causing Municipal Councils and staff, throughout Ontario, to create by-laws that are beyond the authority of said Councils. This is also placing our municipal councils in a position of having legal action taken against them.

This report also explains the limitations of their authority.
