What happened

Landlords applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenant due to non-payment of rent. The Tenant owed $11,600.00 in rent arrears. The Tenant proposed a payment plan, which the Landlords initially rejected. The Board decided to give the Tenant an opportunity to pay the arrears and preserve the tenancy, subject to conditions.

The ruling

The Board ordered the Tenant to pay $11,786.00 to the Landlords, including $11,600.00 in rent arrears and $186.00 in application costs. The Tenant must pay $2,000.00 per month from July to November 2022, and $1,600.00 in December 2022, in addition to the regular monthly rent of $2,200.00. If the Tenant fails to make any payment, the Landlords can apply for eviction without notice under section 78 of the Act.
