No person or public body shall be added as a party to the hearing of the appeal unless, before application was refused, the person or public body made oral submission at a public meeting if any, or written submissions to the council or, in the opinion of the Ontario Land Tribunal, there are reasonable grounds to add the person or public body as a party.
