Re: THERE IS A TENANT FROM MY BUILDING SLEEPING AND LIVING IN A COMMERCIAL SPACE AND HE HAS NOT PAID RENT FOR THREE MONTHS IN THIS YEAR. HE IS CALLING THE DEPARTMENT OF BUILDINGS AND IS MAKING COMPLAINTS ABOUT ME. I HAVE TOLD HIM NUMEROUS TIMES THAT HE NEEDED TO LEAVE THIS COMMERCIAL SPACE BECAUSE IT WAS NEVER SUPPOSED TO BE RENTED OUT. IT WAS ONLY SUPPOSED TO BE USED FOR OFFICE SPACE. THIS INDIVIDUAL HAS A DOG LIVING WITH HIM AND A ENTIRE BED IN THIS SPACE. THIS TENANT IS ILLEGALLY OCCUPYING THIS COMMERCIAL SPACE. THERE ARE CAMERAS ALL AROUND THE BUILDING TO THE BACK AND IRON GATES THAT HE PUT UP AT THE FRONT OF THE BUILDING WITHOUT THE APPROVAL OF THE LANDLORD. I HAVE STARTED THE EVICTION PROCESS. HE WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR TAKING THE GARBAGE OUT FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF SANITATION AND HAS NOT DONE SO IN THREE MONTHS AND THIS PROBLEM HAS CAUSED RODENT ISSUES OUTSIDE OF THE BUILDING. I WANT HIM OUT OF THERE, BUT I AM UNABLE TO GET HIM OUT OF THE COMMERCIAL SPACE. I WANT YOU GUYS TO INVESTIGATE THIS SITUATION AND HAVE HIM REMOVED FROM THIS COMMERCIAL SPACE IN THE BUILDING. THIS TENANT HAS BEEN HARASSING ME AND I AM TIRED OF THIS SITUATION COMPLETELY. NOT ONLY IS HE LIVING IN THE COMMERCIAL SPACE, BUT HE IS ALSO OCCUPYING THE GARAGE SPACE AS WELL. HE HAS FULL ACCESS TO THIS SPACE THAT I DIDN'T GIVE HIM. THE TENANT HAS A LOT OF MATERIALS IN THE GARAGE THAT DOES NOT BELONG TO HIM AND HE REFUSES TO GIVE IT BACK.
