OMB Hearing Begins Today


Residents opposed to the rezoning of a Fort Frances green space for housing development get their say today.

The Ontario Municipal Board will begin hearing an appeal launched by residents living near the "Nelson Street Park."

Town council voted in December to rezone the parcel of land between Minnie and Williams Avenues.

The OMB has set two days aside to hear evidence from both the town and residents.
