LAWN RAGE - a Case for Change was spawned over two years after being effectively stonewalled by an unresponsive Ward Councillor; suspended from topical sharing/posting on the OHHA FB Group Page; absorbing unmoderated ad hominem innuendo posted by "Anonymous Neighbour Complainants" in OHHA FB Group Comments; and challenging By-law Officers, Supervisors and the Commissioner on the rationale behind their intrusive, unwarranted, arbitrary and illegal By-Law 125-2017 enforcement in my case, based solely on harassment in the form of "Anonymous Neighbour Complaints".
Similarly, said City of Mississauga authorities have been unresponsive to copious letters and emails requesting clarification of By-Law 125-2017's vague terminology; discretion in its arbitrary enforcement in my case; and its legality, given the 1996 Ontario Court of Justice Ruling that such municipal Tall Grass & Weeds By-Laws are void, invalid and unenforceable on account of vagueness, and they contravene Freedom of Expression guaranteed in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.
In place of making an accommodation for my efforts to convert a traditional mono-culture lawn into a wildlife- and pollinator-friendly Natural Meadow, an "Additional Charge" was tacked onto my Property Tax bill with interest charges accruing every month (see attached Year End Notice), for the City of Mississauga's unwarranted demolition of my work-in-progress Natural Meadow.
Perforce, the next step is to pursue legal remedy by way of an APPLICATION TO DIVISIONAL COURT FOR JUDICIAL REVIEW.
