The Tenant's application for a rent reduction due to the temporary discontinuance of the fitness facilities, gym/exercise room and pool is dismissed. The temporary discontinuance was reasonable due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the need to ensure the health and safety of the residents, staff and visitors in the 641-unit residential complex with a significant elderly population.
Tenant applied for a rent reduction due to the temporary discontinuance of fitness facilities, gym/exercise room and pool from August 1, 2020 to October 31, 2020.
The temporary discontinuance was reasonable due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the need to ensure the health and safety of the residents, staff and visitors in the 641-unit residential complex with a significant elderly population.
The Landlord kept the facilities closed for an additional three months after the government easing of restrictions to ensure the health and safety of the residents, staff and visitors in the 641-unit residential complex with a significant elderly population.
The majority of the elderly people in the complex do not use the pool, gym or fitness facilities and the high-traffic areas like the laundry room have more potential to spread the virus compared to these facilities. The Landlord's decision to continue the facility closure for an additional three months created "hardship" for many tenants.
