AKoko, the right way to handle this problem is to write directly to the board (attention John Dorion, President) and ask for a meeting with the board. I definitely will support your request. Roseanne is not employed with the condo corporation, but with the management company who in the end will...

Shelfun, when the performance audit will be done (soon), the auditor will hand out questionnaires to all residents. Major problems like your wiring will definitely have to be addressed. What Kyle told you is BS; there seems to be a wiring problem in your unit. As for the taxes, I also received...

I am out of the country but can provide a couple of updates: - We have asked for one more bid for the Performance Review and Reserve Fund Study. After studying the 4 we received, we have decided to ask one more company. These bids are over twice as expensive as budgeted for in the 1st year...

We can definitely try to claim greenery on the PDI (General Inspection). It doesn't mean we'll get it, but why not try. Currently, we are awaiting an outstanding quote from one of the inspection engineering companies we have contacted. After we receive it, things will move quicker. Once we...

Address a letter to the board explaining your issues (include pics) and drop it off at property management. All letters are reviewed at the meetings, so I will look for yours. Although it doesn't justify shoddy workmanship, please understand that the reason the super is given "first shot" to...

I agree with TorontoArchitect, this thread should be about our building, inside and out. Any concerns and complaints have first to be adressed to management, and only if management does not act in a timely manner or does not act at all, a letter to the Board of Directors should be sent. The...

here we go :-( 159 WELLESLEY ST E OPA / Rezoning 11 184584 STE 27 OZ Ward 27 - Tor & E.York Apr 29, 2011 --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- --- Rezoning application to permit the re-development of the lands for the purposes of a new 38 storey mixed use building complete with retail at...

If the City would have any vision (and I am afraid they don't), they would keep that development in line with the existing buildings on the other 3 corners and give the area some character.

Of course the meetings are no secrets and I will make it a topic at the next board meeting which will take place on May 12. So far, the policy is that only owners are entitled to know what is going on in the building and what decisions have been made by the board who represents the owners only...

The LCBO South of Winchester (not South of Wellesley) is kind of pathetic with a very limited selection of everything. The people who bought into all the new condos on Sherbourne and Wellesley (Verve) are well off and used to a better selection of wines and spirits. I would like to not have to...

That's what might happen. Kilmer through their" brownfield operation" will clean up the site, has it re-zoned and then sell it for higher development with a nice profit. http://www.kilmergroup.com/brownfield/

I can only hope that the new development will respect the heights of the other 3 buildings at that corner and won't stick out like a sore thumb. A decent LCBO is much needed in this area.

Everybody, We will have our first board meeting this coming Monday, April 18. Are there any specific issues you want me to raise? I welcome any input from you guys! Manfred

Guys, overall I am happy with the outcome of the elections. I am especially glad that only owners who actually live in the building got elected and not some investors whose interest is profit only and who wouldn't care too much about the upkeep of the building. Thank you all for your support...

Thanks, Displeased! Sofie is very much affiliated with Times Group, she, through the real estate company she works for, does all Times Groups condo sales and rentals. She is not an occupant. Also, Hessam Gahdaki is Hashem Ghadaki's son. To my knowledge, he does not live in the building (yet). I...

the turn-over meting will be held on March 7! Don't forget to paricipate.

The front steps on Sherbourne bothered me from day 1. Obviously, the concrete used for those steps, was of poor quality. Water getting into those cracks will further damage the steps, especially when the water freezes and breaks the concrete more. A problem that will certainly have to be...

And Zelda's.

My nickname here is Klaus. On the ballot I will be Manfred.
