According to a new post on the Collingwood Judicial Inquiry website, there will be early hearings by the end of the month.

The judicial inquiry was called by council to examine the 50 per cent sale of Collus to Powerstream in 2012 and to look into the way the proceeds of the sale were allocated.

The upcoming hearings will be status hearings and will be used to determine logistics and a timeline for when parties with standing will have documents ready to produce.

Additionally, participants with pre-hearing motions can bring those to the judge provided they have given advance notice to other participants.

The status hearings will begin Monday, Oct. 29 at 1 p.m. and will continue to the next day (Oct. 30) beginning at 10 a.m. if necessary.

According to the announcement on the inquiry website, counsel have been interviewing potential witnesses and others who have pertinent information. They’ve also been studying “thousands of documents.”

The status hearings will be held at town hall, and will be webcast by Rogers Cable. A transcript of the proceedings will be available a day after the hearing.
