Because of the arrears, the Landlord served a Notice of Termination effective August 30, 2020. The Tenant is in possession of this rent-geared-to-income rental unit. The lawful monthly rent increased to $479.00 effective June 1, 2020 and decreased to $298.00 effective August 1, 2020. The Tenant paid $1,643.00 after the application was filed.
