Toronto Bylaw

[Claudia4105]

Toronto Bylaw requires short term rentals to post an emergency exit diagram in the space.

Any idea where to get this done?

@Claudia4105 A piece of paper and some coloured pens perhaps?

Hi @Claudia4105 , have you found any resources for creating an emergency evacuation plan or diagram for guests? 

Host @Zheng49 had started this discussion in the Community some time ago, where many Hosts shared their insights. 👉Emergency Evacuation Plan👈

Host @Jean174 had also created a wonderful guide around this topic to help our Hosts : 👉Providing important safety information for guests 👈

Hope the above resources help!

I am also inviting Hosts who participated in that discussion if they have any additional suggestions for your case : @John5097 @Zheng49 @Jean174 @Debra300 @Raluca54 🌻

You can do it yourself with floorplanner.com. I've found it pretty easy to use, although the free version does leave a large logo on your plan. I drew out a more-or-less to scale plan of the floor with doors and windows shown. Then I used their signs to indicate exits and location of fire extinguisher and first aid kit. They have a circled A symbol that I used to indicate the location of smoke alarms.

Another question - is the fire safety plan a requirement on top of the emergency exit diagram in the room too? 

and they told me I need a lighted exit box signage above the exit too, and a fire alarm system - are all these a bylaw required??
