Summary
This report recommends that City Council refuse an application to demolish the significant built heritage resource on the protected heritage property at 38 Camden Street which is designated under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act.
Under the Section 34 of the Act, if City Council fails to make a decision on the application within 90 days of issuing a Notice of Receipt the application is deemed to be permitted.
The Province of Ontario has extended the March 17, 2020 Declaration of Emergency and made several subsequent Emergency Orders under the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act. Pursuant to Ontario Regulation 73/20, the statutory timelines for City Council to consider the application to demolish a Part IV designated property are currently suspended, however, the statutory timelines under the Ontario Heritage Act are intended to commence after September 11, 2020, pursuant to Ontario Regulation 106/20 under the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act, subject to any further amendments.
Unless the regulation is otherwise amended, the 90 day notice of the intention to demolish the building on the subject property therefore starts after September 11, 2020 and the applicant must be notified of Council's decision by December 9, 2020.
