| Trash around the dumpster at 350 Riverbend Street. |
105 CMR 410:
Garbage and Rubbish Storage and Disposal
The owner of a dwelling containing three or more units, the owner of a rooming house and the occupant of any other dwelling shall be responsible for providing receptacles in sufficient number for the storage of rubbish and garbage. These receptacles must be located so that odors do not enter the dwelling. Garbage or mixed rubbish and garbage shall be stored in rodent-proof, watertight, covered containers. Plastic bags will not be considered sufficient. [410.600]
An occupant exclusively occupying or using any part of the dwelling is responsible for maintaining it free from garbage and filth. [410.602(B)]
The owner of any dwelling must keep any part of the dwelling which is used in common by all occupants free from garbage and filth. [410.602(D)]
Does it seem as if Douglas Pochini, the Property Manager of Kaliko Estates in Athol, Massachusetts, takes these Commonwealth of Massachusetts regulations seriously?
Not only does garbage often collect around the dumpster, giving off an offensive and disgusting smell, some tenants continue to allow their dogs to shit on common areas. This even though Kaliko Estates was cited for this very issue by the Athol Board of Health.
Kaliko Estates: Don't move there!
I considered living there once but my kids would have had no back yard and we probably wouldn't have had privacy since the units are all connected. I've heard people say they didn't like living there. I can see why.
ReplyDeleteMichelle, this place is going downhill quickly. Just today a guy speeding through the parking lot hit a tenant's car. There are teenagers roaming the property even at night and an old man who hangs around the dumpster. He has been seen by people living on Riverbend Street walking into and out of the woods.
DeleteScary and bizarre.
The guy who runs this place is a fat and lazy type who doesn't know the meaning of real work. His kind is allergic to work and looks for ways to live off of other people's sweat....areal dirt bag!
ReplyDeleteWhen I read in The Athol Daily News that this character was billing us for water and sewer and breaking state law in the process, I was really p.o.
ReplyDeleteLike we're not already paying enough.
