An application for suppression has been made in this case, and the Tribunal orders suppression of the names and identifying details of both parties.

The tenant must carry out the following work to the premises, which must be completed by Friday 11 April 2025: a. Mow the lawn.

As an alternative to compliance with Order 2, the tenant must pay the landlord $1,051.81 immediately.

If the tenant fails to comply with either Order 2 or 3 above, then the landlord may undertake the work and charge the tenant the costs of this work up to $1,051.81. These costs may be treated as rent in arrears and enforced accordingly.

Reasons

The landlord attended the teleconference hearing. The tenant did not.

The landlord claims that the tenant failed to keep the premises reasonably tidy by failing to mow the lawn. The landlord wants the problem fixed.

Under section 40(1)(a)-(e), Residential Tenancies Act 1986, a tenant has specific obligations in relation to the tenancy premises.

Where the Tribunal finds the tenant has failed to comply with any of these obligations, where appropriate it may make an order for the landlord to carry out the work. See section 78(1)(e) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.

If the work order is not being made by consent of both parties, the Tribunal must also make a monetary order as an alternative to compliance with the work order. See sections 78(2) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.

A work order may also authorise the landlord to undertake the work and charge the tenant the costs of doing the work, if the tenant should fail to comply with the work order and alternative monetary order. A monetary limit must be imposed by the Tribunal on the amount of costs that can be charged. These costs can be treated as rent in arrears and enforced accordingly. See sections 78(2AAB) and 78(2AAC)(a) Residential Tenancies Act 1986.

Has the tenant failed to comply with their obligations?

The landlord has provided evidence of the overgrown lawn and the multiple requests by the landlord to have the tenant mow the lawn.

Despite the landlord’s requests, the lawn remained overgrown.

I am satisfied that the tenant has failed to keep the premises reasonably tidy and accordingly make a work order as ordered above.

The alternative monetary amount is based on a quote obtained by the landlord. I find the amount as reasonable.
