Stamford Connecticut Letter from Tenant to Landlord for Failure of Landlord to Comply with Building Codes Affecting Health and Safety or Resulting in Untenantable Condition — Demand for Remedy [Your Name] [Your Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Email Address] [Phone Number] [Date] [Landlord's Name] [Landlord's Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] Subject: Demand for Remedy and Compliance with Building Codes Affecting Health and Safety or Resulting in Untenantable Condition Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the failure of compliance with building codes affecting health and safety, as well as the resulting untenantable condition of the premises located at [address of the rental property]. As your tenant, I have diligently fulfilled my responsibilities, paying rent on time and adhering to the terms of our lease agreement. However, it has come to my attention that the property does not meet satisfactory living conditions due to several violations found within the premises. These violations not only pose a threat to my health and safety, but they also make the unit untenantable. In accordance with the laws of Connecticut and our lease agreement, I kindly request immediate action to remedy the following building code violations: 1. Inadequate Ventilation and Mold Infestation: The property lacks proper ventilation, leading to excessive moisture accumulation and subsequent mold growth in various areas. Mold can adversely affect the air quality, leading to respiratory issues and allergies. 2. Faulty Electrical Wiring and Overloaded Circuits: There have been multiple instances of power outages and flickering lights, indicating potential electrical issues. This poses a significant hazard, increasing the risk of fire and electrocution. 3. Water Leaks and Plumbing Problems: Persistent leaks, both visible and concealed, have emerged from several plumbing fixtures, causing water damage to the property and compromising its structural integrity. These leaks further contribute to the mold growth and potential health hazards. 4. Pest Infestation: The presence of pests, such as rodents and insects, has become unmanageable. Despite my efforts to maintain cleanliness, these pests pose a threat to my health and damage personal belongings. 5. Lack of Heating and Cooling Systems: The absence of an adequate heating and cooling system has resulted in extreme temperature fluctuations within the property, making it uninhabitable during the severe weather conditions experienced in Stamford. I strongly urge you, as the landlord, to promptly address and resolve these violations to ensure compliance with the building codes and the provision of a habitable dwelling. Failure to do so constitutes a breach of your legal obligations as a landlord, and I am within my rights to seek appropriate legal remedies to protect my health, safety, and tenant rights. To ensure the proper remediation of these issues, I respectfully request that you provide a comprehensive action plan detailing the steps you will take to correct the aforementioned building code violations and restore a habitable living environment within [a reasonable timeframe, e.g., 30 days]. Additionally, I request that you reimburse any costs incurred by me due to these violations, including but not limited to repair expenses, medical bills, and temporary accommodation expenses. Please be aware that if these issues are not effectively resolved within the specified timeframe, I may have no choice but to explore further legal action to protect my rights and seek relief as deemed appropriate by the law. I trust that you will take this matter seriously and act promptly to rectify the violations mentioned. I look forward to receiving your written response within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 10 days] from the date of this letter. Please reach out to me via [preferred contact method] to discuss the necessary steps for resolving these issues. Thank you for your attention to this urgent matter. I genuinely hope that we can resolve these concerns amicably, preserving our professional rapport while ensuring a safe and habitable living environment.
