Order

[The tenant/s] must pay Waitakere Young Musicians 202 Trustee Limited $1,769.59 immediately.

Reasons

Both parties attended the hearing by telephone.
The landlord has applied for compensation for removal of tyres from the tenancy.
The hearing held on 9 October 2024 was adjourned for the landlord to arrange for the tyres to be removed and produce an invoice for that work which is to accurately record the number of tyres involved.
The landlord produced an invoice dated 28 August 2024 from Always Digging and Excavating. That invoice is for $22,252.50. It is for locating and excavating 810 tyres and the invoice lists 101 units (presumably hours) of machine hire and 88 units of labour. At the hearing the landlord said that none of the tyres have been removed and instead the area where the tyres were located has been excavated and the tyres moved. The landlord said that the work was carried out from August to November 2024 and yet the invoice is dated 28 August 2024.
At the earlier hearing the landlord produced a quote from J & J Laughton dated 23 September 2024 for 430 tyres amounting to $1,749.15. The invoice contains a handwritten note that “quantities estimate only, subject to change”.
The tenant said that other people occupying the land where the tenancy is located had also put tyres in the area. He also said that a friend of his had removed the tyres around June this year but there is no evidence of that, and the landlord does not agree with this.
The tenant signed a document dated 29 August 2022 which states, “As we discussed in our recent conversation you agreed to sign a document which acknowledges that you accept responsibility for removing all the tyres that you placed in the areas known as the pecan paddock and the swamp”.
There is conflicting evidence in relation to the number of tyres placed on the premises by the tenant. It is not clear that the tenant alone is responsible for all the tyres or the number of tyres. However, I am prepared to make an order for removal of 430 tyres as quoted on 23 September 2024.
Because Waitakere Young Musicians 202 Trustee Limited has substantially succeeded with the claim I have reimbursed the filing fee.
