No. Andover, MA 01845
Dear Ms. Minicucci:
On August 1st, I inspected apartment number 105 Morkeski
Meadows and I found the apartment to be in complete compliance
with the State Sanitary Codes.
The tenant, Mrs. Ghazal, complained that water leaked into
the apartment and wet the carpeting. I saw no evidence of this,
but it was not raining on the day of my inspection. It appears
that a recently installed drain around the exterior of the
building should solve any water problems.
She also complained of a soap smell when people are using
the washers and driers in the building. The drier vents are near
her windows but I could not see an easy way to relocate them.
Mrs. Ghazal also complained of noise from the boiler room.
I inspected the boiler room and found the equipment to be in good
working order. Due to the proximity of Mrs. Ghazal's apartment
to the boiler room, she is bound to hear some noise when the
boilers are operating, but there is nothing that can be done
about this.
