What happened
The landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict the tenant due to the tenant substantially interfering with the reasonable enjoyment of the residential complex. The landlord alleged that the tenant's actions, such as storing urine in bottles, excessive clutter in common areas, and causing a foul odor, have resulted in complaints from other tenants.
The ruling
The Board found that the tenant substantially interfered with the reasonable enjoyment of the residential complex. However, instead of terminating the tenancy, the Board granted conditional relief from eviction, ordering the tenant to remove all personal possessions from the common areas by May 31, 2023. If the tenant fails to comply, the landlord may apply for an order terminating the tenancy and evicting the tenant.
