The tribunal determined a strata corporation incorrectly imposed fines on the applicants for short-term rental infractions under a specific bylaw, as transition provisions in the Strata Property Act exempted the tenant's vacation rental activities. The strata was ordered to reverse $1,000 in fines, return $200 in collected penalties with interest, and cover $225 in tribunal costs.
