What to do if you received an "Order to Comply"

Receiving an Order to Comply letter from the city can seem unwanted and stressful for the property owners.

What is it?

An 'Order to Comply' is a document issued to a property owner regarding a violation of the Property Standards. It describes the violation and an expectation for repairs to be completed within a reasonable timeline.

In short, it's an order to legalize, with the help of engineering drawings, the already completed construction. ​

For example here is an order from Toronto’s Chief Building Official (CBO) requiring all remaining tenants of Swansea Mews - west end housing, to leave for an extended period.
