2020 BCCRT 83
2020-01-23Owner won$125

The tribunal determined that bylaw changes made by the strata corporation after 2002 were invalid due to failure to follow the required two-vote approval process for mixed-use buildings. Consequently, the restriction on short-term rentals could not be enforced and penalties imposed on the applicants were overturned.

2020-01-23Corporation upheld

A strata corporation attempted to impose $3,400 in penalties against a resident for operating Airbnb rentals from their unit. The tribunal ruled in favor of the owner, finding the bylaws restricting short-term rentals were invalidly enacted under strata legislation, and directed reversal of all fines.
