A freedom of information request sought information on a wide range of housing data covering November 2019 to July 15, 2021.
The City of Vancouver has asked B.C. Supreme Court to quash an information commissioner’s order that it disclose plans for new rental housing sought in a freedom of information request.
The city had withheld information in its response to the person requesting the information. It cited harm to financial or economic interests and harm to third-party business interests to withhold information from the applicant. As such, the city filed a July 12 petition with the court to have Kimmett’s order quashed. That petition said Kimmett’s legal and factual reasoning and conclusions were unreasonable and should be set aside.
“Specifically, the city relies on third-party financial modelling to be associated with specific sites and owners,” it said. “The city provided evidence that disclosure of this information could reasonably be expected to harm property owners and frustrate city objectives.”
