Product description

Appearing before the Ontario Land Tribunal (“OLT”) can be daunting. Procedures must be followed, and an understanding of the OLT itself is necessary. Former long-time Board member Bruce Krushelnicki and new co-authors Matthew Di Vona and Alexander Suriano have put all the information needed about appearing before the OLT into one unique resource.

A Practical Guide to the Ontario Land Tribunal, 3rd Edition answers four key questions:

  • What does the OLT do?
  • How is an appeal made?
  • How is a Tribunal hearing conducted?
  • How do you prepare for a Tribunal hearing?

Formerly published as A Practical Guide to the Ontario Municipal Board, this updated publication is for anyone appearing before the Ontario Land Tribunal. It covers the different proceedings and mechanisms of the OLT, and offers practical expert advice on appearing in front of the Tribunal. It also features a special chapter on the future of the OLT in planning.
