Freedom of Information
The Township of McGarry is required to provide access to records and release public information in accordance with the Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act. The Act ensures that information is publicly available while also protecting personal information that is in our custody.
Make an information request
Before making a formal request, contact us to see if the information is already available. If not, please complete the Freedom of Information Request Form and submit it along with a $5 application fee to the municipal office.
Fees
Fees are set by the Provincial Government and are based on search time and the volume of documents requested. We will provide you with a fee estimate before processing your request.
Fees can be waived if it is in the public's best interests to do so, or if the fees would cause financial hardship.
Appeals
If you are not satisfied with our response to your request for information, you can make an appeal to the Information and Privacy Commissioner of Ontario.
Please complete the form and submit to the Township office with your payment.
