The applicant, a unit owner, submitted requests for various condominium records.

The respondent condominium corporation failed to provide certain contracts and board meeting minutes, claiming the minutes did not exist because business was conducted via email.

The Tribunal found that the corporation failed to keep adequate records by not maintaining board meeting minutes, in violation of the Condominium Act.

The Tribunal ordered the corporation to provide the requested contracts, the manager's records of board approvals, and required the directors to retake mandatory training.

Costs of $200 were awarded to the applicant.

The applicant, a unit owner and former board member, applied to the Condominium Authority Tribunal seeking an order for the respondent condominium corporation to produce certain board meeting minutes.

The respondent argued the meetings were confidential disciplinary panels and that the records related to contemplated litigation.

The Tribunal found that while the meetings were board meetings, the respondent was justified in refusing to produce the minutes under section 55(4)(b) of the Condominium Act, 1998, as they related to contemplated litigation regarding disciplinary actions against the applicant and another board member.

The application was dismissed with no order for costs or penalties.
