Decorated figure skater Tessa Virtue and Toronto Maple Leaf Morgan Rielly have hired a lobbyist as they seek permission to paint the exterior of their Rosedale heritage home, despite objections from city staff.
City hall ordered Tessa Virtue and Morgan Rielly to stop painting their heritage house. Now they have hired a lobbyist to get permission.
But because the house, which was built in 1912, is located within the North Rosedale Heritage Conservation District permission has to be granted to make any alterations to its exterior. However, they said that “Heritage Planning staff were not aware of this note” when they approved the permit. Staff say that the owners did submit a list of properties within the surrounding neighbourhood with painted bricks but they said that a review of those properties determined that all of them were either painted prior to the designation of the area as a heritage district or are “unrated” homes, which means they don’t contribute to the heritage character of the neighbourhood and therefor are not subject to the same rules.
