Concerns and Safety Issues!!!



issues and Repairs-



·        Shortly after moving into the apartment and even after the initial viewing of the apartment unit we had noticed that the stove burners and stove oven had to be cleaned before they could be used.


·        Also in that same timeframe we had discovered that the elliptical receptacle on the north wall of the kitchen where you are supposed to be able to have electrical appliances that the electrical receptacle was not working.


·        Approximately after two weeks of occupying the unit that we noticed there was issues regarding apartment bathroom shower stall - in reference to shower hose and handheld showerhead as the bar at the bottom was lose because of screw hole was bigger then the screw, also where the showerhead joined main water supply connected to the hose at that connection it requires a o ring and that showerhead itself needs to be replaced as where the different settings of shower spray is the head is separating and majority of the water is escaping through the crevice instead of intended selection of the handheld showerhead.


·        Also the salient around the floor area of the shower stall is peeling and needs to be repaired as soon as possible before there could be water damage in the occupant unit and/or the occupant unit below and said mentioned unit.



·        Apartment building elevator when the power goes out the elevators are not functional as they are modern and computerized in the landlord has a contractor who is doing the computer sitting for appropriate function of elevators knon as resetting for appropriate operation of elevator's. During power outages even the emergency lighting from building comes on for approximately 15 minutes and then off again this even applies to the stairwell of the building from the first floor all the way up to the sixth floor level. What is very interesting during our last power outage it was in the evening and from 7 PM to approximately 2 AM next morning I was stuck at the main entrance of the apartment building as numerous residents may the emergency phone call to see if contractor was sending someone to reset the elevators. In the meantime the fire department was called and they came they were able to get there emergency keys from our department key box at the front of the building this giving them a key for entrance into the building and a key supposedly to reset elevators, now after numerous discussions among the fire Captain and his staff and checking various locations in the building it was discovered that their key would not reset the elevators without the contractors technician to reset the elevators. The captain decided to call the EMS to bring a special chair to carry me out for flights of stairs to my apartment resident’s, In next morning the contractors sent a technician between 8:30 AM and 9 AM.

June 30, 2014, Monday morning another surprise in the elevator, as there was a broken bottle glass all over the floor of the elevator... It is one thing when one someone wishes to have a drink but it is another thing when they are irresponsible for picking up broken glass for the safety of other residents using the elevator service facilities within the building.








Latest update regarding apartment bathroom repair issues, surprising what can be done when one is willing to stand up to management to have necessary repairs done for the convenience of the occupant.
Especially after moving into the said apartment last November 2013, and two weeks after the move-in these concerns and issues began until yesterday July 3rd, 2014 - believing the video is self-explanatory.
