The decision was made Tuesday through a “consent agenda,” meaning it passed without discussion
Brockville council has approved the final group of rental units to be turned into condominiums, completing a mass conversion that started last year. The properties, owned by SIREG Management Inc., include 362 units at Cartier Court, Kensington Parkway, and Balmoral Place.
The decision was made Tuesday through a “consent agenda,” meaning it passed without discussion. Council first rejected the plan in 2023, but later changed its mind after receiving a staff report and legal advice. Tenants were told their rental status will stay the same, whether they buy or not.
Council also approved a rezoning at King and Broad Streets to allow five new apartment units without requiring parking. Instead, the developer will pay $32,500 in cash-in-lieu fees.
Another motion approved extra costs for a development charges study, raising the total from $35,000 to $65,000. Mayor Matt Wren called it a smooth process, joking about the vote needing no “strong mayor powers.”
