The applicant, a restaurant owner of South American origin, alleged that the respondent condominium corporation and property management company discriminated against him on the basis of ethnic origin, national origin, and race.
He claimed the respondents selectively enforced condominium rules regarding temporary signage, changed the voting procedure for Declaration amendments to prevent his expansion, delayed his permanent signage approval, and failed to cut grass near his unit.
The Tribunal found that the respondents had legitimate, non-discriminatory reasons for their actions, such as enforcing a uniform signage plan across all units and following a vote by owners to change the amendment procedure.
The application was dismissed as the applicant failed to establish a nexus between the adverse treatment and a protected Code ground.
