What happened

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.

The ruling

The rent charged for the rental units is reduced by 2.6% effective December 31, 2018.
