Appendix II (14) Legal Remedies for Tenants of Residential Housing The following is a brief summary of some of the legal remedies tenants may use in order to get housing code violations corrected : 1. Rent Withholding(Massachusetts General Laws, Chapter 239, section 8A): If Code Violations Are Not Being Corrected you may be entitled to hold back your rent payments. You can do this without being evicted if: You can prove that your dwelling unit or common areas contain code violations which are serious enough to endanger or materially impair your health of safety and that your landlord knew about the violations before you were behind in your rent. You did not cause the violations and they can be repaired while you continue to live in the building. You are prepared to pay any portion of the rent into court if a judge orders you to pay it. ( For this, it is best to put the rent money aside in a safe place) 2. Repair and Deduct(Massachusetts General Laws, Chapter III, section 127L): The law sometimes allows you to use your rent money to make the repairs yourself. If your local code enforcement agency certifies that there are code violations which may endanger or materially impair your health, safety, or well-being, and your landlord has received written notice of the violations,you may be able to use this remedy. If the owner fails to begin necessary repairs (or to enter into a written contract to have them made)within five days after the notice or to complete repairs within 14 days after notice,you can use up to four months rent in any year to make repairs. 3. Retaliatory Rent Increases or Evictions Prohibited (Massachusetts General Laws, Chapter 186, section 18, and Chapter 239, Section 2A): The owner may not increase your rent or evict you in retaliation for making a complaint to your local code enforcement agency about code violations. If the owner raises your rent to try to evict within six months after you have made the complaint, he or she will have to show a good reason for the increase or eviction which is unrelated to your complaint. You may be able to sue the landlord for damages or if he or she tries this. 4. Rent Receivership (Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 11, section 127 C-H): The occupants and/or the Board of Health may petition the District or Superior Court to allow rent to be paid into court rather than to the owner. The court may then appoint a"receiver"who may spend as much of the rent money as is needed to correct the violation. The receiver is not subject to a spending limitation of four months'rent. 5. Breach of Warranty of Habitability: You may be entitled to sue your landlord to have all or some of your rent returned if your dwelling unit does not meet minimum standards of habitability. 6. Unfair& Deceptive Practices (Massachusetts General Laws, Chapter 93A) : Renting an apartment with code violations is a violation of the consumer protection act and regulations, for which you may sue an owner. The information presented above is only a summary of the law. Before you decide to withhold rent or take any other legal action, it is advisable that you consult an attorney. If you can not afford to consult an attorney, you should contact the nearest legal services office, which is Neighborhood Legal Services 37 Friend Street Lynn,MA. 01902 (781)-599-7730 J I CITY OF SALEM HEALTH DEPARTMENT Nine North Street • Salem, Massachusetts 01970 -Page o7 of 3 Date: Name: Address: 3 75— LAroz e,z-P S7nceer Specified Time Reg.#410..

Dear Mr. O'Brien: I represent Mr. Courtney J. Lundquist and Christopher L. Coyle concerning their Application for protection under the grandfather Policy for R-3 Structure (3 Family) in a R-1 zone (Single Family Zone). We are off asking you to determine based on the evidence that I am submitting that 375 Lafayette Street, Salem, Massachusetts qualifies for separate lot protection found in Chapter 40A Section 6 of the Massachusetts General Laws. The lot at 375 Lafayette Street does have at least 5,000; '°`square feet and at least 50 feet of frontage as you can see in the attached plot plan and plan recorded at the Registry of Deeds in Plan Book 20, Plan Number 4. I am also enclosing to you Deeds coming down from the Grantor from October 18, 1919 to the present conveyance into my clients dated September 14, 1987 and set forth in Book 9181, Page 548. As you can see from these documents the lot was continuously separately owned from the period of 1918 to the present and after the zoning change when conveyed, the lot retained it separate identity by continually being described as a separate and distinct lot. The lot from 1918 down to the present was not available for use in connection with adjoining • land on the effective date of the zoning requirements which was August 27, 1965. which made the lot ' substandard: I am also enclosing a copy of the building inspectors file card which indicates the structure is a three Family dwelling. sR < . ; 4 ONE:'= June 13, 1988 Michael O'Brien. City Solicitor 93 Washington Street Salem, Massachusetts 01970 For the above reasons we feel that the aforementioned lot at 375 Lafayette Street, Salem, Massachusetts is entitled to grandfather protection under the provisions of Chapter 40A Section 6 under the Massachusetts General Laws and would request that you issue a letter of Acceptance of this Application.
