I understand your concerns regarding the noncompliant condition present in my rental unit, and I would like to provide some important information in regard to this matter. Firstly, it should be duly noted that the noncompliant condition in question has been caused solely due to your deliberate or negligent act as the landlord. As per our lease agreement and the laws governed by the State of Utah, it is the landlord's responsibility to ensure that the rental property is maintained in a habitable and safe condition. Upon moving into the premises, it became evident that certain essential repairs and maintenance tasks were needed, which I promptly brought to your attention through written communication on [date]. Despite repeated attempts to inform you of these issues, no action has been taken to address or rectify them.

This situation has caused significant inconvenience and distress, undermining my rights as a tenant and your obligations as a landlord. In light of the circumstances, I kindly request that you rectify the noncompliant condition immediately, ensuring that all necessary repairs are completed by [reasonable timeframe]. As the noncompliance was solely caused by your deliberate or negligent act, I expect you to take responsibility for the full cost of repairs, including labor and materials required. Furthermore, I kindly ask that you provide a written commitment outlining the actions you plan to take to ensure such incidents do not occur in the future. I believe it is crucial to maintain a constructive landlord-tenant relationship based on mutual respect and compliance with all legal obligations. If I do not receive a satisfactory response within [reasonable timeframe], I will be left with no choice but to exercise my rights as a tenant by seeking legal remedies available to me under the Utah Residential Landlord and Tenant Act. I sincerely hope it does not come to that, as it is in both our interests to reach a fair and amicable resolution promptly. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to a swift resolution and the restoration of a safe and habitable living environment. Please feel free to contact me directly at [your phone number] or [your email address] to discuss this issue further. Yours sincerely, [Your Name]
