Mayor John Tory is set to make another attempt at legalizing rooming houses across Toronto, this time with new enhanced powers that could allow him to push through the bylaw with only minority support.
“I deferred it because there weren’t the votes to carry it. But that same report will be going forward and put on the floor of council. All the public hearings and deputations were already conducted at the panning and housing committee and now we are going to bring it forward to city council for a debate and a vote,” Tory said during a news conference on Friday.
The motion being brought back to council by Tory would, however, create a single regulatory framework to permit multi-tenant housing in all Toronto neighbourhoods so long as certain standards are met as a condition of licencing. Speaking with reporters, Tory said that the current patchwork system doesn’t work because it allows countless illegal rooming houses to continue operate, without giving the city any ability to regulate them.
“Because they are not regulated by us we can't regulate them so this will be a big plus for a lot of neighbourhoods where I myself have been to see some of these illegal rooming houses and they are a disgrace, they are a nuisance and they are worst than that,” he said.
