Scope Municipal and planning law is governed almost exclusively by provincial legislation but is affected by case law and the decisions of provincial municipal boards (e.g., the Ontario Municipal Board) and municipal planning boards that have statutory jurisdiction to rule on matters of municipal or planning law. Be aware that municipalities and their employees are often entitled to the benefit of shorter limitation periods.
