The Tenants were required to pay $16,275.54 for rent arrears and the application filing fee in the previous order. The amount that is still owing from that order is $16,275.54 and that amount is included in this order. 5. Since the date of the previous order, the Tenants have failed to pay the full rent that became owing for the period from March 1, 2023 to March 31, 2023. 6. The previous application includes a request for an order for compensation for utility and the order requires the Tenants to pay an amount for utility. Accordingly, the Landlord is entitled to request an order for compensation for damage. 7. The Tenants were required to pay $590.00 for compensation for utility and the application filing fee in the previous order. The amount that is still owing from that order is $590.00 and that amount is included in this order. 8. The Landlord collected a rent deposit of $1,975.00 from the Tenants and this deposit is still being held by the Landlord. 9. Interest on the rent deposit is owing to the Tenants for the period from May 20, 2020 to May 1, 2023. 10. The amount of the rent deposit and interest on the rent deposit is applied to the amount the Tenants is required to pay. 11. The Landlord is entitled to daily compensation from the day after this order is issued to the date the Tenants moves out of the unit at a daily rate of $67.35. This amount is calculated as follows: $2,048.67 x 12, divided by 365 days. It is ordered that: 1. Order LTB-L-045319-22 (L1/L2) and LTB-L-020487-22 (L2) are cancelled. 2. The tenancy between the Landlord and the Tenants is terminated. The Tenants must move out of the rental unit on or before May 12, 2023. 3. If the unit is not vacated on or before May 12, 2023, then starting May 13, 2023, the Landlord may file this order with the Court Enforcement Office (Sheriff) so that the eviction may be enforced. 4. Upon receipt of this order, the Court Enforcement Office (Sheriff) is directed to give vacant possession of the unit to the Landlord on or after May 13, 2023. 5. The Tenants shall pay to the Landlord $17,988.37* (Less any payments made by the Tenants after this application was filed on March 16, 2023). This amount represents the rent owing up to May 1, 2023 and the unpaid compensation for utility charges and the costs related to the applications fee for the previous applications, less the rent deposit and interest the Landlord owes on the rent deposit.
