Submission for your late morning reading. And due to the timeliness of this report, I would like to remind everyone to get out and vote next month.
Dont care who for, but that you do. Its the only true power we have in shaping how our hometowns grow and operate.
Our latest report detailing our investigation into how the Rural Municipality of Victoria handled code of conduct and conflict of interest complaints relating to a member of council is now available.
Following a complaint, OmbudsPEI investigated and discovered that required procedures were repeatedly not followed by the municipality.

Wanted to share this, as two of the nicest people I know are now without a home or any possessions. My wife's uncle and aunt lost their house in a fire last week and were left with only the clothes on them at the time. bit.ly/3TbYsb0
With the release of this year's allowable rent increase, I wanted to highlight some recent work our office did relating to rental increase complaints.
Things always change, but we need to make sure those changes and processes remain fair to those they affect.
Our latest report detailing our investigation into complaints about the Island Regulatory and Appeals Commission has been released.
IRAC allowed a corporate landlord to increase rent by 12% for 23 units of a Charlottetown apartment building. Following a complaint, OmbudsPEI investigated and discovered that IRAC made significant procedural errors when hearing the appeal.
