Dial 911 for police or ambulance services in the event of a serious illness, fire, break-in, robbery, intruders etc. Then Call the Landlord at the service phone number on the Lease.

Fire Safety Plan:

• Leave the fire area if possible
• Call 911 – never assume this has been done
• Activate the fire alarm (use pull station at exit)
• Close all doors behind you
• Use the stairwells to leave the building immediately
• Congregate in the roundabout area at the front of the building at Lakeshore Rd E
• Do not return until fire officials provide an all-clear
• If you can not leave your unit because of the fire or dense smoke, remain in your unit and close the door and leave it unlocked for the entry of firefighters
• Seal all cracks where smoke can get in by using wet towels or sheets, duct tape etc.
• Open a window for air, wave a white sheet or towel to attract attention
• Crouch low to the floor if smoke enters the room
• Wait to be rescued – do not jump
• Listen for instructions given by officials
• Dial 911 again if you are in difficulty

Fire Alarm Systems: No one shall tamper with, by-pass, disconnect the system or the in-unit alarms, temperature monitoring systems, or other sensor equipment for the fire, HVAC, or maintenance systems of the building. By doing so, you would be creating an unsafe environment for the building and other residents.

The Tenant shall not do, bring, or keep anything in the Rental unit or residential complex, or permit
such act that will in any way create a risk of fire or increase the rate for fire insurance on the building
or its contents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Tenant shall not use the living
space in the Rental Unit for excessive storage, including hoarding (to be determined at the sole discretion of the Landlord), of combustible material and/or personal or other property. The Tenant and Landlord agree that failure to do so will be considered a serious breach of the tenancy agreement.

Due to the increased risk of fire, electrical hazards, increased maintenance costs, increased risk of accidental poisoning from plants, products, and waste, negative impacts on indoor air quality such as increased relative humidity, increased risk of indoor mold, and increased odors that can cause interference with the reasonable enjoyment of other Tenants and units:

29. a) No Tenant, resident, guest, business invitee, or visitor shall cultivate or grow cannabis or similar plants within the building. This prohibition includes all residential units within the building, all commercial units within the building, all balconies and patios, enclosed common areas, as well as outside within 9 meters (29.5 feet) of doorways, operable windows, and air intakes.
30. b) “Business invitee” shall include but is not limited to any contractor, agent, household worker, or other person hired by the Tenant or resident to provide a service or product to the Tenant or resident.
31. c) No Tenant may decorate with Live trees

Under Ontario Fire Code (O. Reg. 388/97):

1. No Tenant, resident, guest, business invitee, or visitor shall place, store, or keep any materials of any kind in a hallway or common area. Shoes, bicycles, decoration, chairs, tables, equipment, storage, and umbrellas are prohibited in the hallways, on doors, and in common areas at all times.
2. Flammable items such as doormats, door decorations, wreaths, flowers, etc in the common area hallways are prohibited. Doormats should be placed inside the apartment entrance.

Barbecuing and the making of fires are prohibited in the Rental Unit, common areas, and every other place in the residential complex.

Electrical circuits – should not be overloaded. Tenants are asked to regularly check that electrical cords, power bars, etc, are all well maintained.

Fire Extinguishers – Every Tenant should maintain a fire extinguisher that is regularly checked to ensure it is operative and charged.

3 Foot Rule – The Tenant must always keep all flammable objects at least 3 feet of distance away from any heat source (examples: space heater, oven, radiator, toaster) and cooling source (examples: air conditioner, fan) even if the source is off. If there is a risk of a flammable object falling (a pillow for instance) during an earthquake or accidental movement, it must not be kept above the heating or cooling source.

Your unit has been provided with smoke alarm(s) that are Hardwired with battery backup.

Your unit has been provided with a CO alarm(s) that are hardwired with battery backup.

The Tenant acknowledges receipt of a smoke alarm, and where applicable carbon monoxide alarm. The Tenant shall immediately inform the Landlord in writing of any damage to, or malfunction of, any smoke or carbon monoxide alarm provided by the Landlord, in which case the Landlord shall service and maintain said alarm.

The Landlord shall furnish batteries for each smoke and carbon monoxide alarm requiring batteries when the Tenant takes possession of the Rental Unit, but the batteries for such alarms shall thereafter be replaced as needed, from time to time, by the Tenant and no batteries shall be removed from such alarms unless immediately replaced with working batteries.

The Nest Smoke detectors require 3x Energizer Lithium AA (L91) Batteries. Do Not use rechargeable or standard Alkaline batteries in these units – if you do, they will quickly drain and need to be replaced soon after installation.

For your protection, the Tenant is encouraged and required by the Ontario Fire Code (OFC) to take part in ensuring that the smoke alarms and CO alarms are operational and to co-operate with the Landlord in carrying out the necessary testing and maintenance. Tenant shall take the following actions to ensure the operability of the alarms:

• Tenant shall review the main features and operation of the smoke alarm and CO alarms at https://nest.com/support/images/misc-assets/Nest-Protect-(Wired-120V)-User-s-Guide.pdf
• Tenant shall allow the Smoke and CO alarm(s) to complete their monthly testing cycle when initiated
• Notify the Landlord if when the lights are turned out the alarm glows yellow, meaning it has detected something wrong that needs attention.
• Notify the Landlord when the low battery signal is activated so that the Landlord can make arrangements for testing after the replacement of the battery.
• Notify the Landlord when the “end of life” signal is activated so that the Landlord can make arrangements for the replacement of the unit.
• Notify the Landlord if the “power on” indicator goes out so that the Landlord can arrange for appropriate repairs or replacement of the unit.
• Notify the Landlord if the smoke alarm or CO alarm is damaged so that the Landlord can make arrangements for the repair or replacement of the unit.
• When you have been absent for seven or more days (such as a vacation), arrange for the smoke alarm and CO alarms to be tested by the Landlord to ensure that they are operable (on battery-operated smoke alarms and CO alarms only).
• Notify the Landlord of any electrical problems that may affect the operability of electrically wired smoke alarms and CO alarms.

The Tenant shall not disable any smoke or carbon monoxide alarm provided by the Landlord, ever. The Ontario Fire Code (OFC) specifies that “No person shall disable a smoke alarm” and “No person shall disable a carbon monoxide alarm”. A Tenant or any other person who disables a smoke alarm or CO alarm is guilty of a provincial offense and may be subject to a minimum fine of $360 per device, imprisonment, or both. Fines are subject to increase.

Tenant and Landlord agree that the interpretation of “disable” includes but is not limited to painting the alarm, unplugging from an electrical outlet or removing the battery, covering the alarm(s), impeding detection of the alarm(s) to smoke or CO, taking the alarm(s) off the ceiling or wall, performing a reset, re-assignment of WiFi, re-assignment of the authorized users (such as through the App), or re-programming or changing of settings on the Smoke and Carbon Monoxide alarm(s).

If any damage to or malfunction of a smoke or carbon monoxide alarm provided by the Landlord is the result of a willful or negligent act or omission of the Tenant, an occupant, or any person permitted in the Rental Unit by the Tenant or an occupant, then the Tenant shall reimburse and indemnify the Landlord for any expenses incurred for servicing or replacement of such equipment and if the Landlord is assessed fines or other financial penalties resulting from such act or omission, the Tenant shall reimburse and indemnify the Landlord for any such fines or penalties and for its reasonable legal costs and disbursements incurred in defending legal proceedings arising from the Tenant’s act or omission.

Windows and Doors: Any window or door to the building must be firmly locked and secured by the individual using the window or door. Doors may not be propped open at any time. Windows may not be left open when the unit is not occupied.

Windows: Window limiters have been installed as per the requirements of the Ontario Building Code and City of Mississauga and are required by law to restrict the windows from opening more than 100mm (4 inches). The Tenant agrees that window safety devices are not to be disabled at any time after installation, unless in an emergency requiring the window to be used as a method of egress. Tenant shall immediately report any safety devices not in satisfactory working condition so that they function safely and effectively.

Entering and Leaving the Building – do not allow strangers into the building. When in doubt, ask.

In-Unit security alarm systems and cameras – must be registered with the Landlord along with the current access code. The Landlord will not be responsible for any costs if emergency access is required and an alarm system is triggered.

Video Cameras: there are multiple cameras located throughout the building. No one shall tamper with, by-pass, or disconnect the security cameras. The Tenant hereby accepts notice that interior and/or exterior common areas of the residential complex may be subject to video surveillance by the Landlord or its agents to maintain security and prevent crime. Tenant access to video records shall be in accordance with the Landlord’s Privacy Policy.

The sidewalks, entry, alleyways, passageways, and stairways in the common areas of the residential complex shall not be obstructed or used for any purpose except for proper access to and from the Rental Unit, and no door shall be propped open.

The Landlord shall have the right to limit access to the residential complex by delivery services or solicitors, at its sole discretion, but access to canvassers is permitted if such canvassers are authorized pursuant to the Residential Tenancies Act (RTA).

The Tenant shall not use any appliance in addition to those supplied by the Landlord including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any space heater, dishwasher, air-conditioner, washing machine, clothes dryer, or refuse compactor, without first obtaining the written consent of the Landlord, and paying to the Landlord the required charge for the use thereof. The Tenant shall properly care for all appliances supplied by the Landlord and notify the Landlord in writing if any such an appliance requires repair.

The Tenant agrees to be responsible for all general maintenance and repair costs to all the fixtures and appliances included in the rental up to and including the first $100.00 per repair and the landlord to pay the balance. The Tenant shall obtain the landlord’s prior consent to all repairs exceeding $100.00.

If any damage is caused to such appliances or fixtures by the willful or negligent action or omission of the Tenant, an occupant, animal, or any person permitted in the Rental Unit by the Tenant or an occupant, the Tenant shall be responsible to pay for the entire cost of all repairs or replacements.

The following items may be included in the rental: Air Conditioner/Heater Unit, Stainless Steel Stove, Stainless Steel Fridge, Over-the-counter Stainless-Steel Microwave, Quartz countertop, Stainless Steel Dishwasher, Marble Tile where laid, Kitchen and Vanity Shock Absorbers and Drawer Rails, Kitchen and Door Fixtures and Hardware and the Landlord warrants that the aforesaid appliances and fixtures will be in good working order at the commencement of the Lease. All the above are the properties of the Landlord and are to be returned to the Landlord and left on premises at the end of the lease term.

The Tenant agrees to pay the full cost repairs for any undue damage to the rental unit or property caused by the willful or negligent conduct of the Tenant, the Tenant’s guest, or another person who lives in the rental unit. User manuals for all items included in the rental property should be read before use to ensure negligent conduct does not occur. If the Tenant repairs the unit using their service provider, the service provider must not be hired without the prior written consent of the Landlord, for which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Tenant agrees that the repair cost will be in addition to the monthly rental and be considered a part of lawful rent.

The Landlord requires a rent deposit of one month’s rent. The rent deposit must be used for the rent for the last month before the tenancy ends.

The Tenant may offer, voluntarily, additional deposits, however, this is not required as a condition of the tenancy, or demanded by the Landlord.

The Landlord will pay interest on all rent (both offered and demanded) deposits every 12 months. The percent interest is the same as the rent increase guideline that is in effect when the interest payment is due. The guideline is set each year by the Ministry of Housing. https://tribunalsontario.ca/documents/ltb/Brochures/2020%20Rent%20Increase%20Guideline%20(EN).html

The key deposit is currently $250 and will be refunded to the Tenant when the Tenant turns in their key(s) at the end of their Tenancy. Keys must be received in working order and free of damage. A current set of keys includes:

2 Electronic Key Fobs
2 Unit Door Keys

E-Bikes, mobility scooters, and any similar devices or vehicles may be used and stored in the residential complex only in the manner and locations prescribed by the Landlord and in accordance with occupancy standards.

A separate charge may be payable to the Landlord if it is agreed that the Landlord will provide electrical hook-up for device charging purposes and use of the hook-up will be metered at the Tenants expense. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no e-bike or mobility scooter may be stored or charged in any common area of the residential complex without the express written agreement of the Landlord.

E-Bikes, mobility scooters, baby carriages, and any similar devices or vehicles must not be stored or parked on any part of the common elements not designated for storage. Any items chained to posts, rails, or located throughout the common elements will be removed and impounded at the owner/resident’s expense.

Leverage off-peak rates

• Mississauga charges different rates of electricity at different times of the day. This changes for Summer, Spring, Winter, and Fall.
• https://alectrautilities.com/time-use-pricing for more information

Reduce phantom energy consumption

• Some appliances such as toasters, video game consoles, televisions, phone chargers, and computers can consume energy even though they are turned off! Prevent this by unplugging items or plugging them into a surge protector power strip with an ON/OFF switch.
• Smart strip surge protectors can automatically turn off plugs when it detects an item is off.

Fridge

• Keep your fridge/freezer full. Food and drinks in your fridge and freezer act as insulation when you open and close the doors.
• Cover refrigerated food and drink. This cuts down on cool moist air your fridge needs to try to keep cold, and less moisture means less energy.
• Only put cooled food in the fridge. Placing warm or hot food in the fridge requires the fridge to work extra hard to cool it, using more electricity.
• Fridge temperature should be 37-40 degrees for most efficient use, going colder takes extra energy without extra benefit.

Using the Shower instead of the Tub

• Tenants acknowledge that using the tubs for baths often requires more than double the amount of water to shower and that this increase in hot water use will increase the cost of your electricity bill significantly.

Dishwasher

• Running the dishwasher on Energy Savings mode will conserve half the heating energy used by other cycles
• Turn off heated dry
• Running the dishwasher when full rather than daily will save 15-50% of the operational costs
• Scrape food off plates instead of rinsing dishes prior to washing. The tenant must not load dishes into the dishwasher with large pieces of food on them

Lowering Hot Water Temperature

• Speak to the Landlord about lowering the hot water temperature to your unit. Your hot water is kept in a tank that must be heated 24/7 and this affects your electricity bill

Lighting

• Turn off lights when not in use
• An LED-based night-light costs roughly $0.50 cents per year in electricity

Cooking

• Use a lid when cooking to cut your electric bill in half. Food cooks faster when covered and water can boil more quickly.
• Stop preheating the oven – many recipes with lengthy cook times don’t actually need or benefit from a pre-heated oven.
• The microwave uses less energy than the oven

All garbage shall be wrapped in plastic or disposable garbage bags and tied, and sorted if required, and placed by the Tenant in the area(s) designated by the Landlord, and at such times as the Landlord and City of Mississauga by-laws may designate, all in conformity with Health regulations and any applicable recycling regulations. It is expressly agreed and understood that garbage shall not, at any time, be stored outside the Rental Unit, except at such times and in such areas as may be designated by the Landlord.

All recyclable materials (aluminum/steel cans, glass/plastic bottles, jars and jugs, newspapers, and cardboard boxes) must be separated from regular garbage. Large boxes must be flattened, folded, and tied before disposal in the recycling bins.

Toxic Substances and Inflammable Materials – disposal of materials such as agricultural pesticides, paints, cleaners, solvents, and batteries are the responsibility of the Tenant. For information about Toxic Pickup call the hotline at 416-392-4330

Appliances, Furniture & Clothing – Do not leave at the garbage bins or garbage collection site unless told by the Landlord. Several charitable organizations are willing to pick up including Toronto Habitat for Humanity (416-755-7353 Ext. 26)

Pickup Times:

Garbage is picked up Monday and Thursday

Recycling is picked up Monday

Tenant shall not obstruct, alter, or in any way impair the efficient operation of heating, ventilating, air conditioning, electrical, fire safety, or lighting systems, nor shall Tenant tamper with or change the setting of any thermostat or temperature control valves in the Building’s common areas. If the Leased Premises are equipped with heating facilities separate from those in the remainder of the Building, Tenant shall keep the Leased Premises at a temperature sufficient to prevent freezing of water in pipes and fixtures. Tenant shall further cooperate to save energy by turning off lights in unoccupied areas or where daylight is sufficient, turning off computers and other equipment at the end of each workday or while not in use, and turning down the thermostat when reasonable to do so.

Heat – The unit will be heated to a minimum of 20 degrees Celsius throughout the year. For heat above this level, the Tenant may wish to use their supplementary heat pump in units where available. The use of the supplementary heat pump will be reflected on the unit’s electricity bill and charges are the responsibility of the Tenant.

Cooling – In units with air conditioning, the Tenant may wish to use the A/C unit. The use of the air conditioner will be reflected in the unit’s electricity bill and charges are the responsibility of the Tenant.

Radiator Obstructions – The Tenant must ensure that the radiators have at least 3 feet of unobstructed space in all directions as per fire prevention regulations. If your radiator is blocked, even by curtains, warm air will not properly spread through and heat your unit.

Heat loss and Windows – Opening windows during low temperatures causes heat to be lost from the nearest radiator, since all the radiators in a building are connected this will affect the heating in all other rooms in your unit, as well as neighboring units – causing potential loss of enjoyment for these Units.

Tenant acknowledges the Landlord’s insurance on the premises provides no coverage on Tenant’s personal property, nor liability on behalf of the Tenant. The Tenant agrees not to do anything on the premises for which the owner’s insurance premium, if any, may be increased, and agree to hold the Landlord harmless from damages of any kind, and liability from injury to anyone whomsoever regardless of fault during this lease term and renewal thereof.

The Tenant agrees to obtain and keep in full force and effect during the entire period of the tenancy and any renewal thereof, at the Tenant’s sole cost and expense a standard tenancy insurance package (Burglary + theft, inland flood, Fire, Water back-up, hail damage, wind damage) and liability insurance policy protecting the Tenant against loss, damages, theft of any Tenant property, or additional living expenses coverage and providing at least $1,000,000 liability coverage. The Tenant agrees to provide the Landlord, upon demand at any time, proof that said insurance is in full force and effect and to notify the Landlord in writing in the event that such insurance is canceled or otherwise terminated. A tenancy may not begin until insurance is in full force and effect.

Tenant agrees to indemnify and save harmless the Landlord from any and all claims, suits, actions, demands, or any other liability present or future arising out of the occupation of the subject premise.
