I am writing to bring to your attention some serious concerns regarding the building codes' compliance in our rental property located at [property address] in Sugar Land, Texas. It has come to my attention that certain building code violations have resulted in an untenantable condition and are compromising the health and safety of the occupants. Background: As a responsible tenant, it is essential for me to emphasize the importance of complying with all relevant building codes set forth by the Sugar Land authorities.

Unfortunately, I must highlight that despite numerous previous communications regarding these issues, adequate action has not been taken to rectify the situation. Summary of Building Code Violations: 1. Structural Concerns: The building exhibits significant structural issues that pose threats to the safety of occupants. These include (mention specific structural issues such as cracks in walls, ceiling, or foundation, sagging floors, or unstable staircases). 2. Electrical Safety Hazards: The property's electrical system is outdated and poses a severe risk of fire or electrical shock. Instances of faulty wiring, exposed electrical connections, and malfunctioning outlets have been observed, further exacerbating these concerns. 3. Plumbing and Sanitary Deficiencies: There are multiple plumbing issues, including leaks, clogged drains, and outdated fixtures, impairing basic sanitation requirements within the premises. 4. Inadequate Ventilation: The lack of proper ventilation, combined with the accumulation of moisture, has led to mold growth in various areas of the property. Mold poses a serious health risk to tenants and should be promptly addressed. 5. Pest Infestation: Persistent infestations of pests such as rodents, insects, or termites are compromising dwelling conditions and impacting the overall health and well-being of the occupants. Demand for Remedy: Given the gravity of the situation, I demand that immediate action be taken to remedy these building code violations. The required actions should include, but not be limited to, the following: 1. Engaging a licensed contractor or expert to perform a comprehensive inspection of the property to identify and rectify all existing building code violations affecting health and safety. 2.

Engaging a certified electrician to conduct a thorough inspection and repair or upgrade the electrical system as per the requirements stipulated by the relevant building codes. 4. Arranging for a licensed plumber to address all plumbing deficiencies, including fixing leaks, unclogging drains, and updating outdated fixtures. 5. Taking prompt measures to improve ventilation and eradicate any mold growth within the property, including professional cleaning, remediation, and addressing any underlying moisture issues. 6. Employing an exterminator to implement effective pest control measures to safeguard the premises and prevent further infestations. Conclusion: I trust that as per your legal obligations to provide a safe and habitable living space, you will address these building code violations promptly. Failure to do so could result in further legal action and potential penalties.
