Trampoline installed by tenant without my permission, twice

[Shelley Peever]

Hello everyone - I have seen the trampoline posts in the past - I would really like some feedback - I own a duplex in Ontario Canada, and I have separate tenants either side. Tenants on the left were inherited with the purchase several years ago - they had a trampoline set up at that time, and I had my property manager ask them to remove it. They did remove it, but I have changed property management companies, and now, 2 years later, I see that the trampoline is installed again, and the tenants have installed a second shed without my permission. The lease was re-crafted when I purchased to add an appendix that strictly prohibits trampolines, pools, swing sets, and more.  Any feedback would be appreciated.  I am ready to get these people out, but it is very difficult in Ontario, Canada.  Thank you.

Call the residential tenancy board (or whatever it is called in ON) and ask them.  The tenants are in violation of the lease (not to mention their actions have created a potential problem with city bylaws), so that may be your way to get them out.  Your PM should also know the rules.
