Due to timing of the proposed development, the applicant would like to demolish the 15 rental dwelling units located at 170 Roehampton before the issuance of Notice of Approval Conditions for site plan and excavation and shoring permits for the approved development. The tenants of 170 Roehampton have moved out and received tenant assistance and compensation, and the rental units are currently vacant. The applicant has also indicated that they intend to move forward with this project as a rental housing project. This motion is urgent as it will enable the earlier demolition of 170 Roehampton to allow more expedited timeline for the project, which will assist the applicant in converting the project from a condominium to much needed rental housing.
