Article Summary:
The article discusses upcoming and proposed changes to the Condominium Act, 1998 in Ontario. It mentions the "grey areas," which refer to sections of the legislation with shaded boxes indicating future changes or additions. One notable change is to Section 117, which deals with prohibited conditions and activities likely to cause damage or injury. The proposed amendment includes a definition of "nuisance, annoyance, or disruption" and expands the disputes that can be heard by the Condominium Authority Tribunal (CAT). Other potential changes include shared facilities agreements, liability limits for directors, and modifications to common elements, among others. The article emphasizes the uncertainty surrounding the enactment of these proposed changes and the importance of being prepared for potential industry shifts.
