ORIGIN: Written request from the abutting owner. AUTHORITY: Municipal Act, RS.O. 1990, c.MA5, s.297 and s.315 - FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: Advertising, Appraisal, Survey Costs and Legal Fees and Disbursements (Purchaser Costs) $2,000.00 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: A request has been received from Barcana Consultants Ltd. for the re-conveyance by the City of those parts of Lot 31, Concession 1, designated as Parts I and 3, Plan 40R-20797 to the abutting property owners. In order to effect the re-conveyance, this portion of road must first be stopped- up and closed. Staff is in support of the stopping-up, closing and eventual transfer of this portion of road allowance as it is a land-locked parcel of land that has no value to the City. BACKGROUND: - In 1966, the City acquired Parts I to 4, Plan 40R-20797 along Sheppard Avenue for future road widening purposes (as shown on mapping attached). When the ultimate design for Sheppard A venue was established, these road widenings were no longer required by the City and in 1981 Council enacted By-law 1390/81 stopping and closing those portions laid out as Parts 2 and 4 and authorized the re-conveyance of same to abutting property owners for nominal consideration; when that by-law was enacted, Parts 1 and 3 were not considered and ultimately remain dedicated as public highway. As the Part I and 3 lands are landlocked and provide no purpose or value to the City, staff is in support of stopping-up, closing and re-conveying them for nominal consideration as was done with the Parts 2 and 4 lands. 065 Report to Council LO 1-02 January 2, 2002 Subject: Road Closing and Conveyance of City Lands Page 2 - As the subject lands are dedicated as public highway, the process to stop-up and close them must be done prior to their conveyance, which process is governed by the Municipal Act and not the Sale of Surplus Land Policy. Staff requires approval from Council in order to advise all agencies and provide "Notice" to the public that the subject lands are being stopped up and closed prior to the by-law being enacted. Staff will report back to Council to have the lands declared surplus upon completion of the road closing process. Council should pass a Resolution authorizing the Solicitor for the City to commence the process to stop-up and close, for the purpose of sale, those Parts of Lot 31, Concession 1, designated as Parts 1 and 3, Plan 40R-20797.
