What happened

Landlord applied for an order to terminate the tenancy and evict Tenants due to non-payment of rent. Tenants had not paid rent increases, believing they were incorrect. The Board denied eviction but ordered Tenants to pay arrears and follow a payment plan.

The ruling

The Board denied the Landlord's application for eviction but ordered Tenants to pay $7,260.00 in arrears and costs. A 12-month payment plan was established, requiring Tenants to pay $381.00 monthly in addition to regular rent. If Tenants fail to comply, the Landlord can apply for an ex parte eviction order under s.78 of the Act.
