      History

      The Provincial Municipal Relations Committee was established in 1951 under the sponsorship of Premier Leslie Frost. The Committee was composed of representatives of the Ontario Municipal Association, the Ontario Association of Rural Municipalities, the Association of Ontario Mayors and Reeves and the Northwestern Ontario Municipal Association, and from the Department of Municipal Affairs. Harold J. Chater of the Provincial Bureau of Statistics served as the Chairman.

      The committee members sought submissions from municipalities, local boards and organizations interested in municipal issues and organized itself into sub-committees dealing with specific policy areas including rural affairs, education, health, law, and social services.

      The Committee ceased to meet in 1955 without issuing a final report.
