From: Ted Tyndorf
Director of Community Planning
Subject: Application for an amendment to Metropolitan Condominium Corporation No.742
Citylife Residence Corp., 67-93 Douglas Crescent
File No. Cond. 6
Ward 1 - East York
Purpose:
This report requests that Council authorise the Chief Planner to approve an amendment to the description
and the declaration of a previously Registered Condominium Corporation No. 742. The amended
declaration and description will change the tenure of the parking spaces and lockers from common
elements to units and add four new residential (townhouse) units to the previously registered sixteen
residential units.
Financial Implications and Impact Statement:
None.
Recommendation:
(1) It is recommended that City Council authorise the Chief Planner to approve an amendment
to the Declaration and Description of Registered Condominium Corporation No. 742 to
affect a change to the tenure of the parking spaces and locker units from exclusive use
common elements to units, and, to add four new townhouse units to the already registered
sixteen residential units subject to the confirmation that the units are complete pursuant to
the regulations of the Condominium Act.
Background:
The sixteen-unit condominium located at 67-93 Douglas Crescent was registered in 1987. Recently
its owners, Citylife Residence Corporation, were permitted to add four new townhouse units and
have also added eleven new parking spaces. These additions have necessitated technical
modifications to the registered condominium including amendments to the original declaration and
description.
The applicant provided the department with copies of the proposed Condominium Declaration and
the amended sheets of the Description including a marked-up excerpt of the amended description
showing municipal addresses (on file with the East York Planning Office). These were reviewed
and found to reflect the permissions granted to Citylife Residence Corporation for the additional
development.
Conclusions:
All the planning issues relevant to this development have been previously resolved during the
approval process of the various additional elements by East York Council, the Committee of
Adjustment, and the Ontario Municipal Board. The department has reviewed the proposed amended
condominium declaration and the amended description and we are prepared to recommend their
approval. However, based on the advice received from the City's building division that some
mechanical permits have yet to be finalised, we have made our recommendation for approval
conditional on the provision by the applicant of confirmation that all the units are completed
pursuant to the regulations of the Condominium Act.
