What happened
The Co-op applied to terminate the occupancy and evict the Co-op Member due to substantial interference, wilful damage, impaired safety, and non-payment of rent. The Co-op Member caused extensive damage to the rental unit, including removing drywall, carpet, and other fixtures, which resulted in fire and electrical hazards. The Co-op Member also failed to pay regular monthly housing charges for over a year and a half.
The ruling
The Co-op's application to terminate the occupancy and evict the Co-op Member is granted. The Co-op Member must vacate the unit by May 31, 2024. If the Co-op Member does not pay the full amount owing by April 23, 2024, they will start accruing interest at 7% annually on the outstanding balance. If the unit is not vacated by May 31, 2024, the Co-op may file the order with the Court Enforcement Office for enforcement.
