Whether or not a condominium can, or should, agree to a unit
owner's request to defer condo fees during the COVID-19 crisis
is a question that we have already been asked a few times and
expect to get asked a lot more of over the coming weeks and months.
When considering this question there are several issues to take
into account.
Firstly, while there have been changes to some rules (such as
the Rules of Court) to deal with the virus and how it is affecting
the judicial system, as yet there has not been any announcement or
direction from Service Alberta on condominiums and COVID-19
generally. We will be monitoring this on a day to day, week to week
basis to see if it changes, because it could.
