What happened

Tenant applied for an order determining that the Landlord substantially interfered with the reasonable enjoyment of the rental unit or residential complex by the Tenant or by a member of their household. The Tenant alleged issues with ants and snow removal.

The ruling

The Tenant's application is dismissed. The Landlord's response to the pest issue was reasonable, and the failure to clear snow from the Tenant's parking space did not constitute substantial interference. The Tenant's claim regarding the key deposit and modem rental charge was dismissed as it should have been filed under a different section of the Act.
