[The tenant/s] must pay Iron Bridge Property Management (Auck) Limited Acting Agent For Sung Chul & Byung Jun Noh $496.31 no later than 4 pm on 26 June 2024, calculated as shown in table below. DescriptionLandlord Water rates$496.31 Total award$496.31 Total payable by Tenant to Landlord$496.31

Reasons

Ms Clifton and Ms Taylor attended the hearing on behalf of the landlord.
The tenant, Mr Zhou, attended the hearing.
This application must be read in conjunction with application number 4725571 including two Tribunal Interim Orders because the present application is “part of application number 4725571.”
The landlord has applied for water arrears and provided a breakdown of how the arrears were arrived at, which proves the amount owing is $496.31.
The amount owing includes the actual usage of water from the start of the tenancy on 17 June 2023 to the most recent WaterCare invoice dated 9 May 2024.
Mr Zhou was unclear if the landlord charged him a fixed fee or how the landlord arrived at the amount he owed. He had repeatedly said that he would pay for his share of actual water consumption.
Ms Clifton and Ms Taylor submitted a breakdown of the actual water usage for Mr Zhou’s dwelling and a small dwelling on the same site. The breakdown includes a detailed calculation based on the actual WaterCare invoices.
Ms Clifton and Ms Taylor also told me that the landlord would pay for the WatreCare invoice in its entirety, which includes a fixed fee charge, and then charge the tenants for the actual usage of water according to the water meter reading on a quarterly basis. The calculation does not include any fixed fee charge.
I am satisfied that the calculation Ms Clifton and Ms Taylor had submitted did not include the fixed fee charge the landlord was responsible for and the actual water usage was attributed to Mr Zhou’s dwelling only.
Mr Zhou confirmed in the hearing that he accepted the water arrears as correct and would pay $491.31 no later than 4 p.m. on 26 June 2024. Filing fee
As this application is part of application 4725571, it is not appropriate to reimburse the filing fee twice when the landlord has decided to file a separate application.
