580 CFRA: Bylaw Enforcing Laws at Heron Gate Residence: Mayor
Posted August 16, 2011
Mayor Jim Watson says Bylaw Services is now “proactively” monitoring and enforcing property standards at Heron Gate residence.
Members of the [Ottawa] ACORN Heron Gate tenant group called on the Mayor to get involved to ensure property standard bylaws are enforced at the Alta Vista property.
The group cites rotting wood, mould and pest infestation as among the issues that are ignored by Transglobe Property management.
In a statement to CFRA News, Watson says Bylaw will take a “zero tolerance approach” and will conduct monthly meetings with all stakeholders to ensure units are repaired as required.
Watson has contacted the Mississauga company and indicated he expects them to maintain the building to property standards.
