What happened
Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenants because the Landlord requires possession of the rental unit in order to demolish the unit and perform extensive renovations.
The ruling
The Landlord's application was dismissed. The proposed work was determined to be a renovation, not a demolition, which means the Tenants retain their right to return to the rental unit after renovations.
