there are also other issues with the property. The trash is constantly overflowed. The dog poop station next to my building hasn’t been emptied in 2 months. I brought that to their attention as well. The apartment across from me has had a poop filled dog kennel bottom since I moved in. One of my burners on my stove does not work. And some buttons on my microwave do not work.
