What happened
Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant because the Landlord has entered into an agreement of purchase and sale of the rental unit and the purchaser in good faith requires possession of the rental unit for the purpose of residential occupation. The Landlord also claimed compensation for each day the Tenant remained in the unit after the termination date. The Landlord also applied for an order requiring the Tenant to pay the Landlord's reasonable out-of-pocket expenses that are the result of the Tenant's failure to pay utility costs they were required to pay under the terms of the tenancy agreement.
The ruling
The Landlord's claim for the Tenant to pay the outstanding amount of $1,298.47 for unpaid water and wastewater charges was dismissed. The Tenant was not obligated under the terms of the tenancy agreement to pay for these utility charges.
