On Thursday, June 20, 2019 at 11:00am David Greenbaum, Health Agent and Janice Orta, Sanitarian, accompanied by Officers Phelan and Rondinelli of the Salem Police Department conducted a re-inspection of the premises located at 13 Cherry Street #1, Salem, MA. Also present was the property owner, Greg Curtin and Mr. Harold Nunez who was in the process of moving out. This inspection was conducted at the request of Mr. Nunez's attorney Neil McCarthy. Upon entering the apartment Mr. Nunez pointed out a large hole in the horse hair plaster in the living room. Mr. Nunez stated that this damage was there when the apartment was originally inspected on April 29, 2019. Mr. Nunez did not show this damage to the inspectors at that time. As we progressed through-the apartment we observed extensive damage in the bathroom. This includes the ceiling being completely tom down, the vanity had been removed and the tub surround walls had been tom down to the studs. Additionally, the toilet had been cracked and water was running all over the bathroom floor. In the dining room there was also a large hole in the horse hair plaster that was not shown to the inspectors at the time of the original inspection in April. The drawers to the built-in cabinets had been removed and the drawer fronts had been put back in place and screwed shut. In the kitchen it appeared that a hole had been drilled in the trap for to the drain for the kitchen sink and that the plumbing had been forcibly broken away from the sink drains. There was a large puddle of water all over the kitchen floor. We then went to the basement where we discovered that water was leaking into the basement from the first-floor apartment. Mr. Nunez stated that when it rains the water floods the basement. The water flooding into the basement was clearly not r,fi. h a Tr Re Ca d from the rain. Upon further investigation it was found that all the water valves on the steam heat radiators were loosened or broken to allow water to leak onto the floors of this unit and into the basement. Mr. Nunez stated that the damages he was pointing out were all part of the original complaint and inspection on April 29, 2019. It is the belief of the health department that these damages did not exist at that time and that Mr. Nunez caused these damages. After some discussion with Mr. Nunez he agreed to move his remaining belongings and return the key to the landlord. After two hours Mr. Nunez finished removing his remaining belongings and left the premises. = 4 a �I
