There is a soft spot that has been expanding across our floor for a little over a year now. It was there when we moved in and we have reported it to maintenance, but we were told us that they would have to rip up the flooring, and we were only told that 2 days ago. We have contacted our front office and they have informed us that they would have to rip up all the flooring to find out what is wrong and we were told 2 days ago that they cannot rip up our flooring unless we move out. My roommate and I have both offered to move to a different apartment in the complex because we want this to be fixed. And they are not answering out emails. I have tried to go in to talk with them, and the person who I have to talk with about moving apartments is never in, and the other people in the office wont help. The soft spot in the floor has been getting bigger over the past year, and we now have mold concerns as well. Over the summer our HVAC system went out and we did not receive any window units for 1 month, and the only reason we did receive a window unit was because my roommate passed out in our apartment due to overheating. The soft spot is in a narrow hallway inbetween our HVAC system and our Water Heater and the laundry closet is next to the water heater.

I moved out of this property in January due to unsafe living conditions. There was a cracked foundation and slumping overhang. Our former neighbors have since reported that no outdoor work was done to the home.

The main electric wire from the pole to this house has been hanging low for nearly a full year after a limb fell on the wire and pulled the wire holder attachment anchor out of the house structure.
We (Chickering Rentals) own and manage a rental next to this property at 1006 e 1st, and the electric wire for 1002 e 1st is hanging low enough to touch in our back yard and creating a hazard.
I alerted Duke and they informed me that they cannot do anything to re-hang the wire until the property owner at 1002 e 1st re-mounts the wire holder anchor, or installs new service mast. I attempted to reach out to the owner of 1002 e 1st to ask them to make the necessary repair and was unsuccessful.
Not sure if the city can do anything about this to help. If you have any other suggestions, please let me know.
Thanks, Justin
