If a person or public body would otherwise have an ability to appeal the decision of Council to the OLT, but the person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting or make written submissions to the Township of West Lincoln before the by-law is passed, the person or public body is not entitled to appeal the decision.

If a person or public body does not make oral submissions at a public meeting or make written submissions to the Township of West Lincoln before the by-law is passed, the person or public body may not be added as a party to the hearing of an appeal before the OLT unless, in the opinion of the OLT, there are reasonable grounds to do so.
