In Housing Law
A land lease home is a home that is owned by someone who does not own the land the home is on. The owner of the home is a residential tenant who pays rent for the land. They might also pay for common areas and services, like recreational facilities or snow plowing. This arrangement is like a mobile home park except the homes are permanent structures that are not designed to be moved.
An independent agency set up by the Ontario government to resolve disputes between landlords and tenants. It is similar to a court, but less formal. It has “members” who are like judges and make decisions after hearing both sides.

Members of the Landlord and Tenant Board (LTB) make decisions about issues that are covered by the Residential Tenancies Act. They’re in charge at LTB hearings. Their role is like that of a judge in a court. An LTB member is sometimes called an adjudicator.
