A former North York hydro site now being used as a refugee shelter is costing taxpayers at least $1-million per month, the Toronto Sun has confirmed.
The city is paying $42,000 per month to the Times Group Corp. to use the 5800 Yonge St. site, which opened its doors on Tuesday.
City spokesman Andrea Gonsalves also confirmed the city has been paying the monthly rent to the owner since January of this year even though the site sat vacant until this week.
