TORONTO — The Ontario government has released the terms of its 95-year lease with European company Therme for the spa and waterpark it plans to build at Ontario Place, and it shows the province has promised 1,600 parking spaces for the private facili
ty.
The report said a government proposal on relocating the science centre suggested parking could be integrated with the building at Ontario Place"in order to dispel public/stakeholder concerns relating to cost and impact on the environment." However, Infrastructure Ontario president and CEO Michael Lindsay noted in a media briefing about the lease that it stipulates the spots can be up to 650 metres away from the facility, so there are other surface lots in the area that could be used temporarily.
That includes cutting down trees, which Lindsay said has started now that it is October because birds and bats are no longer in their nesting season.
