Description

Myself, two boys and another male has been living in an illegal apartment. The property manager who lives on first floor, said he was given permission by the city for two tenants, and saying he needed to schedule an inspection for over a year now, has now decided to evict 2 of the 4 of us after confronting the issues. We have to use his mailbox and mailing address, they make us pay 3/4’s of the utilities, as we can’t set up our own. There is only one way in. No full windows to escape if a fire. Lack of smoke detectors and CO detectors. Mold has taken over the bathroom due to venting issues. He put a vent in, but he has it connected to the dryer vent- so it’s been no help. We will be addressing the issues in court, but would like proper authorities to come evaluate the situation here. It is very unsafe. Housing as been an issue, so we will need help with resources.
