The Member awarded a rent abatement of $7,419.60 and directed the Landlord to hire a contractor to ascertain whether soundproofing could be installed to reduce the noise. The Member declined to order the Landlord to cease the noise, finding that would be unreasonable and unenforceable.
Tenant applied alleging interference with his reasonable enjoyment of his rental unit due to noise from the adjacent unit, which was caused by a child with autism who lived next door. The Landlord had sent notices to the neighbouring tenant in response to the complaints, but the issue persisted.
The Landlord argued that the Member failed to take into account the Landlord's obligations under the Human Rights Code regarding the child's disability, and that the Landlord could not have done more to address the noise complaints.
