Reserve fund studies for Orillia condominiums

What the Condominium Act requires, and what it means for a corporation here.

Orillia, located in Simcoe County, is a lakeside city with a small but ageing condominium stock. Close to Barrie, Midland, Newmarket, it is roughly 110 km from our Vaughan head office. A reserve fund study is required here within a year of registration for every condominium corporation, updated at least every three years after.

Corporations in Orillia are registered through the Simcoe land registry division, so you will see the prefix SSCC on registrations from May 2001 onward and SCC on earlier ones. That distinction is a useful shortcut: an SCC number usually indicates an older building whose major components are approaching or past their first replacement, which is exactly when an accurate funding plan matters most.

What the corporation is responsible for, as set out in the declaration, is what defines scope — not just what's on the property. Responsibility for the building envelope alone can mean two nearby corporations need substantially different studies.

A licensed Professional Engineer seals every study, which includes a 30-year, three-scenario funding plan and the Notice of Future Funding (Form 15), due to owners within 15 days of the board proposing its plan.

Property size, type, the number of buildings and whether a site visit is needed all factor in. We fix the price to a defined scope up front rather than charging by the hour.

How long does a study take?

It generally runs four to eight weeks from engagement, depending on property size and document turnaround.
