Background In 2012, the province of Ontario initiated a comprehensive review of the Condominium Act, 1998. The review consisted of an intensive 18-month public engagement process, involving 2,000 submissions and over 200 recommendations. Among other things, the review revealed a need for a new way to resolve condo disputes, and the result of the review was the Protecting Condominium Owners Act, 2015 (PCOA). The PCOA amended the Condominium Act, 1998, by establishing a new administrative authority, the Condominium Authority of Ontario, and a new Condominium Authority Tribunal (CAT). The CAT will be primarily an online tribunal, with a system that permits the exchange of documents and messages. It will have the exclusive jurisdiction to hear and to make legally binding and enforceable decisions about certain types of disputes under the Condominium Act, 1998, which will be prescribed by the government in regulations to the act. When the CAT starts later in 2017, the first dispute type will be access to condominium records. Purpose Members appointed to the CAT will be primarily responsible for resolving disputes brought to the tribunal through the CAT’s online dispute resolution platform through both formal (adjudication) and informal (alternative dispute resolution) means. Members must act in accordance with the CAO’s mission, core values, and governance and accountability documents. Members will be appointed to the CAT on a part-time, per diem basis.
