The appellants appealed under section 5 of the Drainage Act after the City of Welland took no action on their petition for drainage.
The Municipality requested an adjournment of the hearing until after November 30, 2006, due to a family health situation involving the City Solicitor.
The appellants objected, citing ongoing flooding damage.
The Tribunal granted the adjournment to December 2006 in the interests of fairness, but noted no further adjournments would be granted for this reason.
