Title: Detroit, Michigan Letter from Tenant to Landlord with Demand for Proper Outdoor Garbage Receptacles Keywords: Detroit, Michigan, letter, tenant, landlord, demand, proper, outdoor, garbage receptacles Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to address a concerning issue regarding the lack of proper outdoor garbage receptacles at [property address]. As a tenant, I have noticed that the absence of appropriate waste disposal facilities poses a serious inconvenience, as well as health and safety risks to all residents. Therefore, I kindly request that you take immediate action to address this matter by providing the necessary outdoor garbage receptacles within the premises. As you are aware, a well-maintained waste management system is an essential component of ensuring the overall quality of life for residents. The absence of proper outdoor garbage receptacles not only creates an unsightly environment but also attracts pests and vermin, which can pose significant health hazards to tenants and neighboring properties. I would like to emphasize the urgency of this request as the current situation is detrimental for several reasons: 1. Inadequate Disposal Options: The lack of proper outdoor garbage receptacles forces tenants to store their trash inside their units for longer periods, which significantly heightens the risk of foul odors, bacteria, and potential infestations. 2. Sanitary Concerns: Without designated garbage bins, residents are left with no choice but to dispose of their waste in inappropriate manners, such as using unsanitary bags or containers. This can lead to potential spillages, littering, and enhanced health risks. 3. Neighborhood Aesthetics: The absence of proper waste disposal not only impacts the overall appearance of the property but also negatively affects the surrounding community. It can lower property values and discourage potential residents. 4. Legal Requirements: Michigan state law mandates that landlords provide adequate garbage disposal facilities for tenants. By not meeting this legal obligation, it leaves you, as the landlord, at risk of potential violations and penalties. In light of the aforementioned concerns, I kindly request that you address this matter as soon as possible by providing proper outdoor garbage receptacles that are both sufficient and maintained regularly. This would include durable, appropriately-sized trash bins with secure lids to deter pests, as well as clearly marked recycling containers for environmentally-conscious waste management. I understand that maintaining a clean and suitable living environment is mutually beneficial for both tenants and the landlord. I trust that you will take this matter seriously and prioritize the well-being and satisfaction of your tenants. If the necessary action is not taken within a reasonable timeframe, I will be compelled to explore legal options and report this issue to relevant authorities. I believe that amicable resolution is in the best interest of all parties involved. I kindly request a written response within [reasonable timeframe, e.g., 10 business days] to inform me of your plans to rectify this situation. If you require any further information or assistance regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me. Thank you for your understanding and prompt attention to this matter. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Tenant Occupying Property] [Property Address]
