What happened

The Landlord applied to terminate the tenancy for non-payment of rent. The Tenant, who has lived in the unit for 16 years, admitted to the arrears but failed to comply with a previous interim order to pay ongoing rent. The Tenant cited past job loss and bank complications as reasons for non-payment and proposed a payment plan, which the Board rejected due to lack of evidence regarding financial viability.

The ruling

The tenancy is terminated effective October 12, 2025, due to non-payment of rent. The Tenant is ordered to pay $7,655.86 for arrears and filing fees. The Tenant may void the order by paying the specified amounts by September 30 or October 12, 2025. If not voided, the Landlord can enforce the eviction through the Sheriff starting October 13, 2025.
