Last year, the last time the permits expired, I called a number of gov't offices to complain. Nothing ever happened, except that the permits were renewed for another year. Do tenants have any legal recourse in a situation like this?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-73775999703392860642012-04-03T09:40:16.953-04:002012-04-03T09:40:16.953-04:00The pictures do not manage to capture the massive ...The pictures do not manage to capture the massive amount of people who are drawn to a sidewalk shed. <br /><br />Not only does the structure itself block the sidewalk, there are often dozens of people (and their dogs) gathered beneath it...and, later at night, the shed provides cover for those people looking for a place to take a piss.

However, if you cannot repair it right away, you must put up the hell-shed.<br /><br />The fact that this shed then gets to become a permanent alternative to doing the necessary repairs seems like a pretty big loophole.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5694390946037511355.post-42766738379869266802012-04-03T08:54:03.641-04:002012-04-03T08:54:03.641-04:00Ah, permanent scaffolding.... always loved this st...Ah, permanent scaffolding.... always loved this stuff.abrodnoreply@blogger.com
