Attention
7 Park Vista Residents
Capreit has applied for an Above Guideline Increase (AGI) for
our building. The Park Vista Tenants’ Association has decided to retain counsel
in order to fight the rent increase before the Landlord Tenant Board (LTB). The
City of Toronto has a grant that is available to groups who are fighting AGI’s
so they may pay legal fees and other eligible expenses. The Board has decided
that we shall apply for this grant. The City needs to ensure that enough
tenants are onside with the decision to pursue matters before for the LTB, so
they require a petition be signed. This is where we need your help!
Tuesday, October 14
Between 7 pm – 9 pm
Board Members of the Park Vista Tenants’ Association
will be coming door-to-door to do several things:
1.
Ask eligible residents to
sign the petition.
If
you are wondering if this is you: you would have recently received a notice
(addressed to a member of your household) from the Landlord Tenant Board that
your rent is going to be increasing, and that a hearing is to be scheduled. If
you are unsure, worry not, as we do have a full list of effected tenants.
2.
Ask all residents to join
the Tenants’ Association.
There
is a $20 annual membership fee. At this time we are unable to take cheques, so
cash only please! You will receive a receipt. Please remember: having a strong
membership is very important in ensuring the survival of the PVTA. We wish to
continue for many years, and would love for you to join us on the journey!
3.
Answer any questions you may
have, and take note of ones that we may need to do some research on!

To tenants in other buildings:
we will be doing similar campaigns in your buildings very soon!
Please stay tuned.
