All good arguments, tenants flout noise regulations, landlord is informed and terminates the tenancy based on by-law breaches.
But let me play the devils advocate here.
Yes excessive noise by a tenant is a breach of by-law (1) and potentially strata 117 (1)(a) and possibly (c) and potentially environmental and council regulations.
But what if the landlord is a relative or friend of the tenants and really doesn’t give a toss that their best buddies are constantly annoying a small part of the suburb. In fact the landlord tells all and sundry to leave their tenants alone and that they are definitely staying put.
As I understand it neither the OC, EC Strata Manager or CTTT can terminate a lease based on a breach of by laws of a tenant unless the landlord consents.
Can the landlord be fined by the CTTT for the behavour of their tenants?. A breach of a notice to comply often yields a fine of a few hundred dollars at best after months of mayhem to the surrounding neighbours.
Feedback and discussion most welcome
