What happened

The Tenant applied for an order determining that the Landlord failed to meet maintenance obligations or comply with health and safety standards. The Tenant raised issues regarding insufficient heat, cockroach infestations, unsafe parking conditions due to snow, and unsanitary common areas. The Landlord countered that they were responsive to all reported issues and that some claims lacked sufficient detail. The Board evaluated the evidence based on a one-year limitation period and the Landlord's responsiveness to complaints.

The ruling

The Tenant's application was dismissed in its entirety. The Board found that the Landlord consistently fulfilled their maintenance obligations by responding promptly and adequately to all reported issues regarding heat, pests, parking, and cleanliness in common areas. No breach of the Residential Tenancies Act, 2006 was established.
