Summary:

Under:

Verdict:
The CAT ordered the condo corporation to provide certain requested records, but not those containing personal information, recognizing the need to balance the rights of unit owners to access records with the privacy rights of other unit owners. This decision underscores the importance of privacy considerations in condo management.
Takeaways:

- The rights of unit owners to access records must be balanced against the privacy rights of other unit owners.
- Failure to provide requested records in a timely manner can result in penalties for the condo corporation.
Recommendations:

- Condo boards should promptly respond to record requests to avoid potential penalties.
