Park Rezoning Likely Headed to OMB


Some Fort Frances residents says they'll consider an appeal through the Ontario Municipal Board to overturn a town decision to create housing lots on a neighbourhood park.

Fort France town council approved the rezoning of Nelson Street Park at their meeting Monday night.

Eric Rude says he's prepared for a further fight.

The residents also allege a conflict of interest within a town committee that played a role in identifying the park for housing development.
