My brother was a NYCHA cop 25 years ago.....according to stories he told, the failure to maintain “decent, safe and sanitary” conditions was primarily due to the residents....
Yep. If they rebuild the buildings that are in poor condition, they will be in exactly the same condition in a few years because they have the same destructive tenants.
I’m sure the sence of entitlement of these freeloaders is such that they expect the government to regularly clean the apartments for them.
The more crap you tolerate the more you will get.
Have a tenant who filed a lead complaint. Refused to give us access to fix the problem. Refused to give city contractors access. City fined us $7,000. She lives there now not paying rent (350.00) since 2014. Nothing we can do because it's a rent controlled apartment that she sneaked into (inheritance).
Recycling. Tenants never do it. We have to sift through their garbage or we get fined.
