Visitors and Guests
Tenants are welcome to have visitors and guests in their homes. To ensure the safety and security of all residents, tenants are reminded of the following:
- Tenants should not duplicate keys or lend building access devices (such as keys or entry FOBs) to visitors.
- For the safety of all residents, tenants should only permit entry to individuals they know personally.
- Individuals who have been formally trespassed are not permitted access to the building or individual units.
Guests
Guests are individuals who are not on the lease but stay with a tenant for up to 30 days within a 12-month period. If a guest remains in the unit for longer than 30 days without prior notification to LMCH and the completion of a request to add an occupant, the guest may be considered an unauthorized occupant.
Exceptions may apply in certain circumstances, such as:
- Accommodation-related situations under the Ontario Human Rights Code, including the need for short-term care provided by a qualified individual for a tenant with a disability.
Tenants are encouraged to contact LMCH if they require assistance or clarification on accommodating guests for longer periods.
Visitors
Visitors are individuals who come to see a tenant but do not stay overnight or require temporary accommodation.
While on the property, visitors may be asked to identify themselves and confirm the unit they are visiting if requested by LMCH staff.
Tenant Responsibility
Tenants are responsible for the actions, behaviour, and any damages caused by their visitors, guests, and occupants. For more information, please refer to your lease agreement, the Tenant Code of Conduct, and the Visitor and Guest Policy, available at lmch.ca
