Statement of Claim
Complaints Involved (2) - View
"From the week of 9/26/11 to 10/2/11, the property management of Anna's Vineyard/The Reserve moved a group of day workers into a residential apartment community without notifying the tenants of their presence. Without prior notification, residence have been exposed to unsafe conditions and management has been negligent and remiss in protecting the rights and safety of the residence. The workers have unrestricted access to the community and move about freely as paying residence.However, because they are not paying residence their actions are dangerous and disruptive to residential life. Management has not only been inconsiderate of the health and safety of its residence, they are also in violation of their own term and condition article, which states: "Conducting any kind of business in the Premises or in the Community is prohibited..." and has compromised the safety and well-being of uninformed residence."
