The Landlord may increase the rents charged by 0.86% for the units set out in Schedule 1, within the time period of March 1, 2020, to December 31, 2020. The portion of the Landlord's application seeking an above-guideline rent increase due to an extraordinary increase in municipal taxes and charges to take effect during the period January 1, 2021, to February 28, 2021, was dismissed.
