  • Expropriation of Part of 228-230 Queens Quay West
    GM8.19 STAFF REPORT ACTION REQUIRED Expropriation of Part of 228-230 Queens Quay West and Part of the Lands at the Rear of 250-270 Queens Quay West for the Reconstruction of the York/Bay/Yonge Off-ramp from the F.G. Gardiner Expressway Date: October 23, 2015 To: Government Management Committee From: Chief Corporate Officer Wards: Ward 20 – Trinity Spadina Reference P:\2015\Internal Services\RE\Gm15038re (AFS #21976) Number: SUMMARY The purpose of this report is to seek authorization from City Council to commence proceedings for the expropriation of certain lands forming part of the condominium property known municipally as 228-230 Queens Quay West and certain lands located to the north (rear) of the condominium properties known municipally as 250-270 Queens Quay West. These lands are required for the reconstruction and realignment of the Gardiner Expressway's York/Bay/Yonge off ramp (the "Project") with a new ramp to Lower Simcoe Street. While discussions with the affected owner and condominium corporations are ongoing, it appears unlikely that satisfactory negotiated terms can be achieved, as the required land is directly part of, or subject to easements in favour of, condominium properties. Pursuant to the Condominium Act (Ontario), a condominium corporation is prohibited from selling part of the condominium's common elements unless at least 80% of the unit owners vote in favour of the sale and 80% of those persons with a registered claim against the property consent in writing to the sale. In order to release easements that benefit a condominium, a majority, or in some cases 80%, of the unit owners must approve the release.
