Can a condominium corporation commence an action under the Condominium Owners Act?
Ontario, Canada
The following excerpt is from York Region Standard Condominium Corporation No. 1206 v. 520 Steeles Developments Inc., 2020 ONCA 63 (CanLII):
This is not a case like The Owners, Strata Plan LMS 888 v. The City of Coquitlam et al, 2003 BCSC 941, 15 B.C.L.R. (4th) 154, because pursuant to the statute considered there, the right to commence an action was premised on obtaining a vote of three quarters of the owners. By contrast, the Act contains no such approval requirement. Rather, the condominium corporation is empowered to commence an action subject only to the procedural requirement that notice be given.
