¶ 13. Additionally, as the trial court observed in Sunset Lake Villa Associates v. Miller, in its attempt to interpret the language at issue in this case, "the provision is poorly worded and confusing, primarily because it appears to be missing a comma between the words 'rent' and 'occurring,' " and "[i]t would not be logical to first say that all evictions, including those for substantial violations, must be done with notice, and then say that ones for substantial violations do not need notice." Sunset Lake Villa Assocs. v. Miller, No. 416-4-15 Cncv, slip op. at 2 (Vt. Super. Ct. July 6, 2015); see also Garden Homes, No. 251-7-12 Bncv, slip op. at 3 (Vt. Super. Ct.
