This is an appeal of a decision by the Burlington Housing Board of Review ("the Board')
involving amounts that were withheld from a security deposit. The Board held a hearing on
March 17, 2025, and issued a decision on April 14 in favor of Alex Warner ("Tenant"). The
Board concluded that MTC Vermont, Inc. ("Landlord") was required to return a total of
$3,589.57 from the initial deposit of $5,700. Landlord appeals that decision pursuant to Rule 74
