Agreed.

The process is called ENFORCEMENT.

The reason we have the messes out there we do is because people get away with it and there is no consequence.

Honestly, I don't know how people get these rat traps insured.

I'm all for government getting out of the way of entrepreneurs. But I definitely want government IN THE WAY of slum lords. People like that ruin neighbour hoods. Period.

I would encourage anyone out there living near or beside or dealing with a substandar/illegal multi unit conversion to get on the city's website and use the remote reporting system. Complain every day if you have to. It works. Use it to make property standard complaints, fire risk complaints, undue noise complaints.

When these slum lords start having to open their wallets frequently..... maybe things will change.
