Harris Texas Letter from Tenant to Landlord with Demand for Proper Outdoor Garbage Receptacles Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. As a tenant at [address of the property], I would like to bring to your attention an ongoing issue that requires immediate attention — the lack of proper outdoor garbage receptacles on the premises. It has come to my attention that the current situation regarding waste disposal is inadequate, causing inconvenience and unsightly conditions for tenants. Furthermore, this lack of proper garbage receptacles violates our right to live in a clean and sanitary environment, as stated in the Harris Texas Health and Safety Code. Firstly, it is crucial to note that the current garbage disposal system consists of small and overflowing bins scattered around the property. This not only attracts pests and rodents but also poses significant health risks to both tenants and neighboring properties. Instances of foul odors, unsightly litter, and potential spread of diseases are common occurrences due to these inadequate garbage receptacles. Moreover, failing to provide appropriate outdoor garbage receptacles goes against the regulations outlined in the Harris Texas Property Code. Section 92.008 clearly indicates that as a landlord, you bear the responsibility of maintaining the premises in a habitable condition, which includes providing sufficient garbage disposal facilities. Therefore, I kindly request that you take immediate action to rectify this situation. To address this issue effectively, I propose the installation of two or more large, covered and durable garbage bins strategically placed in convenient locations on the property. These bins should be of sufficient size to accommodate the waste generated by all tenants, thereby preventing overflowing, littering, and potential health hazards. By fulfilling this demand, you will not only meet legal obligations but also ensure a clean, hygienic, and pleasant living environment for all tenants. It will also contribute to maintaining the property's overall appeal, potentially attracting prospective tenants and potentially increasing property value. Should you fail to address this concern promptly, I may have no choice but to contact the local health department or seek legal avenues to rectify this issue. I trust that we can resolve this matter amicably and avoid any unnecessary escalation. I kindly request a written response within 10 days of receiving this letter, outlining your plan to install proper outdoor garbage receptacles and a timeline for implementation. Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter. I believe that by working together, we can maintain a positive and comfortable living environment for all tenants.
