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 II, 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.

On Thursday July 19, 2007 I was joined by Dave Greenbaum, Health Dept. and Lt. Griffin from Salem Fire Dept. to do a walk through of this property at the owner's request. The purpose of this walk through was so that all parties would be able to report their findings at tonight's meeting. The findings of the Building Department were as follows: I. All alarms within this structure appear to be in working order, there is one missing CO detector, this was brought up to the building owner at that time. 2. All of the Fire Extinguishers have been inspected and tagged last year, they will be up for re-inspection in August. 3. All Emergency Lights are in proper working order and have been checked. 4. All egresses and egressways are clear and unobstructed, and all panic hardware devices are functioning correctly. 5. The Sprinkler system has been inspected within the last year, and appears to functioning properly. 6. The general condition of the building is clean, free from debris or other fire hazards. Much of this building has been repainted, and all bathroom facilities are I working order. 7. There are 3 tenants still in residence at this property, one residing on each floor. The owner suggests that this is due to insurance requirements, that an empty structure would not continue to be insurable. 8. There is a staircase in the basement that serves a bulkhead that is in need of replacement. 9. As yet, the kitchen has not been removed from the egress corridor, however, the owner suggests that in the near future this area and an adjoining room will be rearranged to accommodate an eat in kitchen. 10. A wall has been constructed to separate the laundry room from the egress corridor,while the wall is fine, the lack of permit for this work is somewhat disconcerting.

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 II, 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 anv other legal action, it is advisable that you consult an attorney. If you can not afford to consult an attomey, you should contact the nearest legal services office, which is North Shore Community Action Northeast Housing Court Programs Inc. 2 Appleton Street 98 Main Street Lawrence, MA. 01840 Peabody, MA. 01960 (978) 689-7833 (978) 531-0767 J CITY OF SALEM HEALTH DEPARTMENT 1 Salem, Massachusetts 01970 Page I— of Date: 6=1-05e Name:11n(-Z- e r,ii e7/r 6 u w�✓a e� Address: //6 ZaFaurl_;�: S7— Specified Time Reg.#410..

However,as part of the renovation,the stair will be reinforced to meet seismic code and current handrail code requirements. The current rear stair is constructed of solid wood construction with an 8"rise and a 9 3/4"tread. The width of the existing rear stair is currently 3'-0",which provides the required 3'-0"width for means of egress in an existing building per code.In addition,the physical constraints of the building perimeter would prohibit the increase of rise or run by way of constructing a new stair without reducing the size of the rear unit to an insufficient square footage. Although the rear stair does not meet current code in terms of rise and run ratio,it is the opinion of the architectthat the rear stair is of solid construction and is safe to be used as a secondary means of egress with the addition of the handrail and seismic reinforcing.
