Structural ceiling damage since 2022 that Essex attempted to conceal with caulk instead of repairing <br /> 2. Blinding carport lights aimed at my unit, worsening my documented eye condition <br /> Persistent and targeted harassment from the upstairs tenant (Unit 329), with noise, stalking me from room to <br /> room and also into my bathroom, and structural stress has been ongoing since March 2024. <br /> Patterns of retaliation and digital interference affecting my medical access and safety have also been a part of <br /> landlord harassment and retaliation. <br /> I am respectfully demanding: <br /> 1. An independent city inspection of my unit <br /> 2. Immediate enforcement against Essex for failing to meet basic habitability and disability accommodation <br /> standards <br /> 3. A formal response from the City Manager's Office acknowledging receipt and outlining next steps <br /> Please confirm receipt of this complaint and supporting documents. I trust your leadership will intervene and <br /> uphold the rights and safety of vulnerable tenants like myself. <br /> Respectfully, <br /> Donna Kenefick <br /> <br /> <br /> i <br />
