What are some of the conditions that apply to second suites?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Some of the conditions include:
The second suite must be self-contained with its own kitchen and bathroom.
The house, including any additions, must be at least 5-years old.
The floor area of the second suite must be smaller than the remaining unit.
In most cases, homes with a second suite must have at least two parking spaces and parking can be in tandem (one behind the other). There is an exception for parts of the former City of Toronto (R2, R3 and R districts) where only one parking space is required for a house with a second suite. Please contact the City of Toronto's Urban Planning and Development Services Department to determine if a property is located in a R2, R3 or R4 district.
Before planning any changes to the outside appearance of a dwelling the homeowner should contact the City of Toronto's Urban Planning and Development Services Department, and
All new second suites must comply with the Ontario Building Code and require a building permit. existing second suites must comply with the Fire Code as well as zoning and property standards.更多精彩文章及讨论,请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net
