Summary

Owners of a former GM plant in St. Catharines are heading to court to challenge a city order demanding they fix or demolish deteriorating buildings—arguing a 120-day deadline is unrealistic and requesting a new deadline pushed to June 2027. The city granted an extension, but owners say it’s still insufficient for complex, multi-agency work. Public safety concerns sparked the original order, but owners claim they’ve hired engineers and need more time. A Superior Court hearing is set for August 13, while local politicians, including MPP Jennie Stevens, accuse them of stalling cleanup efforts.
