Appeals were brought regarding the Point Abino Municipal Drain in the City of Port Colborne.
The drainage basin experienced flooding and health hazards.
The Tribunal heard conflicting evidence from upstream and downstream owners.
The Tribunal ordered the City to adopt the revised engineer's report subject to amendments, including the deletion of a pumping station at the outlet, the removal of work and assessment on the Haggerty property, and a review of contiguous unsevered lots for minimum assessment.
The Tribunal also requested the City to seek available grants or subsidies due to the residential and conservation nature of the project.
