Origin
Summary
This report seeks Council's authority for the adoption of the necessary by-law to designate a portion of the property owned by 30 Adelaide Street East Limited Partnership currently occupied by Toronto Court Services, as a Municipal Capital Facility, and to provide an exemption for municipal and education taxes. The Municipal Capital Facility agreement authorized by the by-law will provide an exemption for approximately 25,901 square feet of interior space, which is the entire 7th floor of 30 Adelaide Street East leased to Toronto Court Services.
By way of the terms of the existing Municipal Capital Facility by-law and agreement with State Street Trust Company Canada, the current designation is terminated as the sub-landlord has vacated the premises. As there is a new lease between the City and the landlord, 30 Adelaide Street East Limited, a new Municipal Capital Facility by-law and agreement will need to be authorized.
