Contents of the memo:
The Ministry of Transportation has written requesting clarification on our land titles registration procedures with respect to Notices of Assumption made in accordance with the Public Transportation and Highway Improvement Act.
The current "Land Titles Abstracting Standards", published in 1988, do not reference Notices of Assumption.
Notices of Assumption are to be registered in accordance with section 77 of the Land Titles Act and abstracted such that the Crown represented by the Minister of Transportation is shown as the owner. See copy attached.
Please amend the 1988 abstracting standards by adding to page 15 the following:
Registration number | Instrument | Grantee | Land-Remarks signature |
---|---|---|---|
6.16 | Notice | Her Majesty the Queen In right of the Province of Ontario as represented by the Minister of Transporation | Vests in Crown |
I recognize that most offices are already processing Notice of Assumptions in this manner, however, the standards should be updated to reflect this.
