What happened

Landlord applied for an order to require Tenants to pay outstanding water utility costs they were responsible for under the tenancy agreement. The Tenants had vacated the rental unit prior to the hearing.

The ruling

The Tenants are ordered to pay the Landlord $1,671.49, which includes the outstanding water utility costs of $1,485.49 and the $186 application filing fee. If the Tenants do not pay the full amount by February 7, 2023, they will owe interest at 5% annually on the outstanding balance.
