Article Summary:
The City of Toronto passed by-laws in December 2017 to restrict short-term rentals, allowing them only in the operator's principal residence for less than 28 consecutive days. The by-laws were appealed and the Local Planning Appeal Tribunal (LPAT) upheld them on November 18, 2019. Condominium corporations in Toronto must comply with these by-laws, and any unit owner or occupant in breach of the by-laws may also be in violation of the corporation's governing documents. Condominium corporations have a duty to enforce their governing documents under the Condominium Act, 1998. On December 3, 2019, short-term rental operators announced their intention to appeal the LPAT decision.
