• Read the Letter

The Ombudsman reviewed two meetings held by the City of Hamilton Farmers’ Market Board of Directors. The Ombudsman determined the Hamilton Farmers’ Market is a municipal services corporation. As municipal services corporations are deemed not to be local boards by section 21 of O. Reg 599/06 under the Municipal Act, 2001, the Board is not subject to the open meeting rules under the Act.
