As the city filed it

This report seeks Council's authority to repeal and enact a new By-law to replace the By-law passed on June 29, 2018 designating a portion of the property owned by the Toronto Community Housing Corporation and occupied by the York West Active Living Centre at 1901 Weston Road as a Municipal Capital Facility, namely a community centre, and exempting it from property taxes. This is necessary because, since this By-law was passed, the York West Active Living Centre has entered into a new lease with its landlord, the Toronto Community Housing Corporation, reducing the area it leases and adding seven parking stalls.

In particular, the seven parking stalls, which are ancillary parking, require designation together with the community centre to be tax exempt. The York West Active Living Centre is a community-based resource centre for persons 55 years of age and older that promotes, encourages, and supports healthy, independent living through a wide range of health and wellness programs, educational workshops, and social activities.
