The developer is OMNI Developments Inc. in care of Zelinka Priamo Ltd.
The OMNI Developments Inc.’s website (omnidevinc.com) is currently not live.
On a City of London report, c/o stands for “care of”. It means that Zelinka Priamo Ltd. (a local land use planning consulting firm) is officially representing the property owner, developer, or builder on that specific development application.
Instead of dealing with the property owner directly, city planners and official records send all correspondence, notices, and documents regarding that application to Zelinka Priamo. They handle all the paperwork for rezoning, site plans, and permits on behalf of their client.
Ben reached out to Zelinka Priamo Ltd. for specific construction timelines via phone on July 6, 2026 and heard back with the details listed above regarding the construction start date.
Ben was not able to find contact information for OMNI Developments Inc.
