[quote=Anonymous]Here is a link to the story mentioned above. https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2022/02/06/homeless-kitchen-fires/ This is a real risk to people living in apartment or condo buildings that accept unsupervised mentally ill or anti-social residents. In one building in Van Ness, complaints about anti-social behavior led the subjects of the complaints to start fires and disable alarms. After repeated visits the Fire Dept expressed that they would not be responding to nuisance calls. I repeatedly saw people standing on the sidewalk last summer, many with pet cats in cages, the elderly out in the heat, etc. A neighbor mentioned that some of those tenants had been or were in the process of being evicted, seems like a large amount of money is wasted. I really feel for the elderly in rent controlled apartments in formerly very safe buildings and neighborhoods that have become defacto shelters absent rules, supervision or security. [/quote]
