Subject: Urgent Notice to Cease Retaliatory Decrease in Services — Bridgeport, Connecticut Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing as a concerned tenant regarding recent changes in services provided at the property located at [Property Address], in Bridgeport, Connecticut. This letter serves as a formal notice, expressing my dissatisfaction with the decrease in services and the potential retaliatory nature behind this action. As a tenant, I have the right to enjoy certain amenities and services as outlined in our lease agreement and protected by state and federal laws. However, I have observed a significant decline in the quality and availability of essential services, which is concerning and has had a detrimental impact on my living conditions. The specific issues I would like to address are as follows: 1. Repairs and Maintenance: I have noticed a delay in addressing critical maintenance requests, such as plumbing problems, electrical issues, and essential repairs in my unit. Some of these requests have remained unresolved for an unreasonably long period, causing inconvenience and potential safety hazards. I urge you to promptly address these pending repairs and prioritize them in accordance with the terms of our lease agreement. 2. Waste Management: The frequency of garbage collection has significantly decreased, leading to an accumulation of trash throughout the property. This not only compromises the cleanliness and hygiene standards of the premises but also attracts pests and poses health risks. Please take immediate action to restore regular waste management services to maintain a habitable living environment for all tenants. 3. Security and Safety: I have noticed a decrease in security measures such as lighting repairs, malfunctioning locks, or the lack of security personnel when previously available. This lapse raises concerns about our safety, leaving the property vulnerable to potential criminal activities. I kindly request that these security precautions be reinstated promptly to ensure the welfare of all residents. It is essential to note that these issues have arisen after my recent complaint(s) regarding other concerns within the property. I am disheartened to consider that these detrimental changes may be retaliatory in nature, which goes against my rights as a tenant. In light of the aforementioned concerns, I kindly request that you: 1. Cease any retaliatory actions against me or any other tenants who have exercised their rights by making legitimate complaints regarding the property's conditions. 2. Immediately restore and maintain all services, ensuring they meet the standards outlined in our lease agreement, local ordinances, and state regulations. 3. Provide a written response within [reasonable time period] acknowledging the receipt of this letter, outlining the steps you intend to take to rectify the issues mentioned above, and providing an estimated timeline for their resolution. Please be aware that, as a tenant, I have rights protected under both Connecticut and federal laws, and retaliatory behavior is strictly prohibited. Should these concerns persist unaddressed, I may be forced to explore other legal remedies available to protect my rights as a tenant, including filing a complaint with the local housing authority or seeking legal counsel. I hope we can resolve these matters amicably, allowing us to maintain a positive landlord-tenant relationship and fostering a safe and habitable environment for all residents. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter, and I look forward to receiving your response soon.
