Goodwin Place Condominium Association 9070 Bradley Street Abentel, ON N0G 1YO 18 August Julio Salazar Unit 503 Dear Mr. Salazar, Greetings from the Goodwin Place Condominium Association. We are writing to officially inform you of an addition to our condominium bylaws. From 1 September, unit owners will no longer be allowed to let any part of their unit for short-term rental (less than six months). -(1) -. You may be familiar with this practice as "using Owillo.com," but this ban applies to short-term rentals set up through any channels, even offline ones. As you are likely aware, this addition is the result of a formal vote among association members following months of discussion. As such, it is legally binding for all members, and violating the rule even a single time will result in a substantial fine. -(2) -. For details, see the full text of the rule (Article 9, Section B, Clause 12), which is enclosed. We hope that those among you who voted against the ban will keep in mind the considerable benefits of not allowing short-term rental. First, it will eliminate the security issues created by a constant stream of non-residents coming and going from our grounds. -[3] -. Moreover, it will preserve the spirit of Goodwin Place as a community of friendly neighbors. To confirm that you understand this change, please sign the enclosed form and return it to the association office by 31 August. -[4] -. Note that refusal to sign does not exempt you from the rule. Sincerely, Courtney Graham President Goodwin-Place Condominium Association Encl. |
