Thanks to all who signed the recent petition opposing the pay parking for visitors. Copies were faxed to Homestead head office last week, as well as Councilor Grimes’ office.
SEVERAL TENANTS ARE FILLING OUT A T3 WITH THE LANDLORD AND TENANT BOARD. A T3 application challenges a discontinued service (i.e. free visitor parking for our guests) that was up to now provided. This is against the 2006 LANDLORD & TENANT ACT, and we hope that a strong application and solidarity of our neighbors will force Homestead to reverse this decision which is, in essence, a subversive rent increase!!!
The initial fee of $45.00 has kindly been covered by several tenants. For any additional tenants, the cost is $5.00
If you would like your name attached to the application, please contact DONNA @ 416.253-9457, Unit 618. I will need the following information:
· Full name and contact info
· Rent amount
· How long you have been paying/residing here
· $5.00 fee
WE ARE NOT SURE EXACTLY WHEN THIS ISSUE COMES BEFORE CITY COUNCIL, EXCEPT IT WILL BE IN THE FALL, NOR DO WE KNOW IF PRE-EXISTING PAID PARKING WILL THEN BE GRANDFATHERED INTO THE NEW BY-LAWS. UNTIL THEN ONLY THOSE WHO PARTICIPATE IN THIS T3 PROCESS MAY BE EXEMPTED FROM PAYING, IF OUR APPLICATION IS SUCCESSFUL.
J Thanks to all who have supported the cause thus far – let’s continue to work together in solidarity and see what happens! J
