Ensuite, M. Ferreira propose, |
||||||
That, in the opinion of this House, the Legislative Assembly of Ontario call on the Government of Ontario to move expeditiously to establish and implement a comprehensive landlord licensing program, to ensure minimum standards for rental accommodation throughout Ontario, with the following features: |
|||||||
The program would be fully integrated with existing municipal property standards by-laws and Part XIV (Maintenance Standards of the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006); Administration and enforcement would be the responsibility of the Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing, and could be assigned to individual municipalities by agreement; Landlords would be required to obtain a licence for each residential complex containing more than 10 residential units; Annual licence fees would be paid into special funds dedicated to supporting program administration and enforcement; Residential complexes would be regularly inspected and work orders would be issued to ensure compliance with minimum standards; Repeated failure to comply with work orders would be dealt with by a rent escrow system, whereby tenants in the affected residential complex would pay part of their rent into a special account, administered by the landlord licensing program and used to ensure that repairs are carried out; Serious infractions would result in prosecution and substantial fines could be imposed on conviction; and That the Government of Ontario report back to the Legislature on the implementation of this program during the spring 2007 sitting. |
