OMB Decision Out in 30 days

There was no decision coming out of an Ontario Municipal Board hearing held in Fort Frances Wednesday.

The hearing heard arguments surrounding the town's October 2008 decision to rezone the United Pentecostal Church site on Emo Road to allow it to be redeveloped into apartments. O.M.B. Chair Gary O'Connor heard more than four hours of testimony from town officials and residents living in the area who are against the rezoning and the project.

O'Connor is expected to rule on the case within a next month.
