The decisions

Every tribunal decision linked to this building, newest first.

2024 BCCRT 453
2024-05-14Corporation upheld

The owner challenged a strata corporation's new bylaw banning hot tubs and spas, wanting to keep using a portable inflatable spa on the patio. The tribunal ruled against the owner, determining the bylaw was properly enacted, not retroactive, and reasonable given the spa's removable nature.

2022 BCCRT 1232
2022-11-10Decided

The owner installed an inflatable spa on their patio in violation of strata bylaws. The strata corporation imposed a fine for this violation. The dispute centers on the validity of the bylaw restriction and the legitimacy of the resulting penalty imposed by the strata corporation.
