Vicinia has been before the BC Civil Resolution Tribunal 3 times (2020–2025), surfacing 3 distinct issues across 3 categories. The dominant theme is governance & council conduct, and the highest-severity issue on record is rated elevated. Owners prevailed in 0 of 3 decisions; total awards on record: $113.
Each category below explains what that pattern means for a buyer, with the building’s own decisions as evidence.
Governance & council conduct
How the corporation is actually run — records access, meetings, bylaw enforcement, transparency. Repeated governance cases signal a contentious or opaque council, and that colours every decision made about your money and your building.
Common property & use
Boundaries, parking, and renovation disputes — who controls and can alter shared space. Usually lower-stakes individually, but frequent cases show ongoing friction between owners and the board.
Financial disputes & fees
Special assessments and fee disputes hit owners directly — a single levy can run tens of thousands per unit. A pattern here means the building’s finances have been contested. Ask for the reserve-fund study and the levy history before you offer.
The decisions
Every tribunal decision linked to this building, newest first.
A strata property resident filed a complaint alleging discriminatory conduct by the strata corporation in connection with parking space rental matters. The complainant claimed the strata failed to follow proper procedures under strata legislation and internal bylaws. The tribunal record is incomplete and lacks details about the final determination or any remedies ordered.
The tenant disputed a $100 penalty imposed by the strata corporation for breaching moving regulations. Since the strata corporation withdrew the penalty prior to the hearing, rendering the matter resolved, the tribunal dismissed the case but required the strata corporation to pay half of the filing costs ($112.50). Additional harassment allegations were rejected as beyond the tribunal's authority.
