What about the landlord who simply doesn’t want to rent to a tenant with a cat or dog? In our scheme, there is the appropriate by-law that allows cats and dogs on application and no applications have so far been refused. But if the owner of an apartment decided that they don’t want pets in the apartment, can they simply refuse to let the apartment to anyone who wants to bring in a dog or cat?
Well done, you, for persevering with this matter, notwithstanding the personal and financial costs, as well as the perils of dealing with NCAT, where the decisions can be capricious, to say the least. The strata development where I am secretary has had a no smoking by-law since 2018 and it works well. We have only had an issue with a tenant who was smoking, but it was very difficult to get the proof. However, the owner was on side and the matter was resolved.
If the drain is part of the network of drains that services all of the villas, then strata/Owners Corporation should pay.
