Every tribunal decision linked to this building, newest first.
The applicant alleged the strata corporation breached governance obligations by failing to conduct annual meetings and obtain required depreciation reports, claiming this negatively affected her mortgage terms. While her monetary damages claim was rejected, the tribunal required completion of the depreciation report and granted partial fee reimbursement.
The owner conducted unpermitted renovations and falsified strata council signatures on permit documents. The tribunal upheld most bylaw fines around $2,200 but reduced some penalties due to process issues and invalidated excessive interest charges. The owner must stop Airbnb operations and follow renovation requirements.
