What happened

The Landlord applied for an order to vary the percentage rent reduction determined under section 132 of the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 because the residential complex falls under the multi-residential property tax class and the amount of the municipal property taxes does not rise to 20% of the total annual rents charged, and because there is an error in the calculation of the rent reduction contained in the Notice of Rent Reduction issued by the City of Toronto.

The ruling

The rent reduction set out in the Notice of Rent Reduction issued by the City of Toronto dated September 9, 2019, is varied from 0.88% to 0.53% effective December 31, 2019. The Landlord or the Tenants shall pay to the other any sum of money that is owed as a result of this order within 60 days of the order issuance date.
