Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act
In most cases, it is not necessary to apply under the Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act to obtain access to the Township’s records.
Requests for information can generally be made by calling, writing, or visiting the appropriate department. Staff may request that a formal request be made when it is deemed appropriate.
Make an Official Freedom of Information Request
- Complete the request form below, or write a letter stating that you are requesting information under the Act. Any clear written request that refers to the Act will also be accepted. Please provide as much detail on the document(s) you are requesting.
- Forward the completed request form or letter to the Township:

A $5.00 application fee must be included with your request. Make a cheque payable to "The Township of North Stormont".
Additional fees may apply for photocopying, mailing and staff time.
A request is usually processed within 30 calendar days. The Township must either provide access to the requested record or notify the individual that the information is exempt under the specific provisions of the Act.
