"That, on January 30, 2008, the property described as Part Lots 122 & 123
G.C.T. being Parts 1 & 4 on Plan 58R-15289, and municipally known as 560

That the Mayor and Clerk be authorized to execute any documentation approved
by the City Solicitor to show consent to the conveyance of the property
municipally known as 560 Bingemans Centre Drive from Cit Financial Ltd. "
BACKGROUND:
The subject property was purchased from the City of Kitchener on April 13, 2006. Restrictive
Covenants were registered against the title of the property by Instrument No. WR206780. As
part of the title control restrictions, Paragraph 2(f) states that no transfer or resale of the
property can take place within six years from the date of closing without the approval of the City
of Kitchener. The City has received a request from the owner of 560 Bingemans Centre Drive
seeking Council's approval to sell the subject property. The property is currently being leased
by Broda Enterprises through a twenty (20) year lease. The day-to-day business of the
current tenant will not change. It is the intention of the potential purchaser to have the current
business operations continue on the subject property with business and employment
opportunities proceeding under normal working conditions.

In view of the fact that a building was constructed and the current tenant of the property is

a certified copy of Council's resolution as well as the confirmatory by-law to the undersigned.
