What happened
The Landlord applied to evict the Tenant for rent arrears and substantial interference. The interference application was withdrawn. The Tenant justified withholding rent by alleging the Landlord had cut off the water supply, a serious maintenance breach. The Tenant also raised a past illegal lockout incident. The Board found the Tenant provided insufficient evidence for the lack of water and had not properly raised the lockout issue prior to the hearing. Consequently, the Board issued an eviction order for non-payment of rent.
The ruling
The Board has terminated the tenancy unless the Tenant pays the Landlord $10,986.00 by June 28, 2025. If the payment is not made, the Tenant must vacate by that date. If the Tenant fails to move out, the Landlord can enforce the eviction. The Tenant is ordered to pay the Landlord $9,983.25 for rent arrears up to the hearing date and the application fee, plus a daily compensation of $39.45 for each day they occupy the unit after June 5, 2025.
