. Section 13.3.1 authorizes certain capital improvement adjustments. Section 13.4 authorizes the landlord to “seek a tax surcharge from a tenant because of an increase in municipal property taxes.” App. at 56. Evidently, neither of these adjustments occurs in a “fair return” or “hardship” hearing. Defendants argue that because section 10 of the Tenancy Act proscribes the passing on of conversion costs in a “fair return or hardship” hearing only, it would have no impact on forms of automatic rent adjustment, including the property-tax pass-through. See App. at 54. Plaintiffs dispute this interpretation of section 10, maintaining that the section forbids any recovery of condominium costs that do not add to the services or amenities of the buildings. Because the issue is not outcome determinative, we have no occasion to pass on this question.
