The applicant, a condominium unit owner, requested email correspondence referenced in board meeting minutes regarding a gas contract renewal.
The respondent condominium corporation failed to reply within the mandated 30-day period but argued the emails did not exist or were not official records.
The Tribunal found that the emails, even if they existed, did not constitute records under the Condominium Act, 1998.
However, because the respondent failed to reply to the records request within the statutory timeframe, the Tribunal awarded the applicant $200 in costs for the tribunal filing fees.
