This 2024 Decision of the Ontario Superior Court of Justice outlines that in order to successfully sue a municipality for a policy decision, you must prove bad faith. The Test for Bad Faith The Ontario Court of Appeal commented on what constitutes bad faith on the part of a municipality, by stating: To say that Council acted in what is characterized in law as "bad faith" is not to imply or suggest any wrongdoing or personal advantage on the part of any of its members. But it is to say, in the factual situation of this case, that Council acted unreasonably and arbitrarily and without the degree of fairness, openness, and impartiality required of a municipal government Grosvenor v.

📢 Update on the Renters Reform Bill (RRB): iHowz has been lobbying parliament for some time, working alongside Sir Christopher Chope regarding the RRB. However, on the 3rd reading, the situation remains uncertain. Despite efforts, an opposition amendment to immediately abolish Section 21 was defeated. The Bill stipulates Section 21 will be axed 'when the court system improves,' but the specifics are sadly lacking. Key points of the Bill: 1. Abolition of Section 21 Evictions: Ensures tenants' security by preventing landlords from evicting without cause. 2. Decent Home Standard: Sets minimum safety and quality standards for rental properties. 3. Enhanced Tenant Rights: Grants new rights, including pet permissions and protection against discrimination. 4. Review of Court System: Ensures effective management of eviction cases before Section 21 abolishment. 5. Timeline Adjustments: Allows for adequate preparation periods for landlords and tenants. 6. Clarifications on Rights/Obligations: Ensures clarity in tenant rights and landlord obligations. 7. Focus on Housing Standards: Ensures safe and habitable rental accommodation. 8. Balancing Interests: Aims for fairness between landlords and tenants. Overall, the RRB, with its amendments, represents a comprehensive effort to reform the rental sector and address key issues affecting renters across the UK. Stay tuned for updates! 🏠🔑 #rentersreformbill #RRB #ukrentals #uklandlords #rentals #privaterentedsector #prs

On Tuesday (31st October) West Lindsey District Council will be in the High Court alongside Braintree District Council. They will be challenging the government's use of emergency legislation allowing the Home Office to impose asylum seeker accommodation centres in local areas bypassing normal planning and consultation procedures. In this video Cllr Sally Grindrod-Smith explains the situation and their experiences of the Home Office taking charge at RAF Scampton. We've heard similar problems from Wethersfield (Braintree) and have been experiencing them here with respect to Northeye (Bexhill, no decision yet). Common problems are a lack of information, no consultation, changes in plans and fundamentally...local people don't want these large camps in small communities. It is VERY CLEAR that the Home Office are not able to work with local communities. This legislation needs to end. The government and the Home Office need to sort out arrivals and processing...rather than introduce a third problem (large scale accommodation centres). We wish Braintree and West Lindsey all the best. Please show your support...or you could be next! https://lnkd.in/eTenk9fS
