Freedom of Information 

Ontario’s Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (MFIPPA) gives you the right to request access to government-held information.  MFIPPA  applies to all local government organizations, including municipalities, school boards, public utilities, transit and police commissions, fire departments, conservation authorities, boards of health and other local boards.  There are separate Acts that apply to Provincial Ministries, agencies and Federal Government institutions. 

MFIPPA came into effect January 1, 1991 and required municipalities to protect the privacy of an individual's personal information  existing in government records.  The Act creates a privacy protection that must be followed to protect an  individual's right to privacy and includes rules regarding the collection, use, disclosure and disposal of personal information in the custody and control of a municipality. 

How do I make a Freedom of Information Request?

Step 1:  Complete the Freedom of Information Request Form or write a letter requesting the information

Step 2:  Forward your request to the Municipal office, along with a $5.00 application fee (make cheques payable to the Municipality of Huron East).  Please note: depending on the request additional fees may apply.

You will receive a response from the Municipality regarding your request within 30 days of receiving your $5.00 application fee.
