The Project forms a part of the City's Multi-Use Trail Network and the Scarborough Waterfront Project (Bluffer's Park to East Point Park). This report relates to the second stage of the expropriation process. During the first stage and in accordance with the Expropriations Act, Notices of Application for Approval to Expropriate were served on all applicable "registered owners" and published in the newspaper. Parties with affected interests in the lands had 30 days to request an inquiry into whether the proposed taking is fair, sound, and reasonably necessary. The previous owner of 48 Larwood Boulevard was the only party to request an inquiry; however, the property was subsequently sold, and the new owner has withdrawn the request. City Council may now approve the expropriation by this Stage 2 report. If authorized, an Expropriation Plan will be registered, and associated notices served. Statutory Offers of Compensation must be served prior to the City taking possession of the expropriated properties. The property requirements are set out in Appendix A and shown on the reference plan attached as Appendix B.
