Construction Act

As of October 1, 2019, if you wish to submit a claim for lien under Section 34 (3.1) of the Construction Act for premises owned by the County, you must submit your claim to the County Clerk using the prescribed Form 12 which can be accessed through the Ontario Court Forms webpage.

Complete the form and send it by email to clerksoffice@oxfordcounty.ca. Liens will only be accepted via e-mail. Ontario Regulation 304/18, as amended by Ontario Regulation 112/19, made under the Construction Act, allows a municipality to choose a method by which the claim for a lien shall be given.

Claims for a lien submitted after 5:00 PM local time or on a holiday are deemed to have been given on the next business day. (Ontario Regulation 304/18, s.11.1 (3))

If you would like to submit a withdrawal of your claim for lien, you must use the prescribed Form 18 which may also be accessed through the Ontario Court Forms webpage. Complete the form and send it by email to clerksoffice@oxfordcounty.ca
