Clarifies provisions related to eviction where a landlord seeks to demolish a housing accommodation
This bill clarifies when a landlord can use building demolition as a "good cause" reason to evict tenants. It requires landlords to demolish an *entire* housing accommodation or building (not just individual units) to qualify for this eviction reason. Landlords must prove their intent to demolish the whole structure with "clear and convincing evidence" to win a court case. This directly affects landlords seeking eviction based on demolition plans and protects tenants in buildings where only partial demolition is proposed.
