Metro Vancouver and the Township of Langley are headed to court but they can't even seem to agree on the reasons why.
Township mayor Jack Froese says it is about who has say, council or Metro Vancouver, over a municipalities land use plans, in this case the Trinity Western University development.
But Metro chair Greg Moore says that has nothing to do with it.
"We are not interpreting what they want to do there. We are just saying we believe that you agreed in your regional context statement that lots wouldn't be below a certain size they disagree and say that we never agreed to that. So we have a disagreement and we are going to get someone to make a judgement on that."
To back up his point Moore adds the regional district has yet to see anything official from the Township of Langley over the TWU development plan.
"The Township of Langley has never applied to Metro Vancouver for a land use change. They have interpreted a document one way, which we have interpreted differently. And so therefore we need to go to a third party, which is a judge, and make a judgement for us. They have never applied on the merits of the planning aspect of the Trinity Western properties, lets be clear they have never done that."
Moore says it will now be up to a judge to decide who is right.
"Sometimes when you have these disputes you need a third party to come in and make a judgement for you and that is really all that we are doing here."
It is not yet clear when the matter will be in court.
