Short Version

Bill PR58 revives the dissolved corporation Lakeside Village Property Owners' Association Fenelon Township Inc., restoring it to its legal position as if it had never been dissolved.

What It Means

This is a private member's bill that revives a corporation called Lakeside Village Property Owners' Association Fenelon Township Inc. that was dissolved on October 1, 1994. A member of the corporation's executive board asked for this special legislation to bring the corporation back to life so it can continue operating and manage property. When the corporation is revived, it will have all its original property, rights, and privileges restored, but it will also be responsible for any liabilities, contracts, debts, and obligations it had when it was dissolved. However, the bill protects any rights that other people may have acquired after the dissolution. The Act came into force on December 19, 2024, the day it received Royal Assent.
