City of Rahway

Garbage left out we have a huge issue with rats in the area of mice. We have personally spoke to the owner and the super of the building to no avail. This is causing a adverse impact to the community.
I have included the code for the ease of reference. I should also mention that we have made several complaints before and we’re not quite sure if anything has been done about it. Please respond to this particular complaint so that we know that these complaints are being read and followed up on and completed thank you so much.

2020: Moved into residents, landlord informed of leaking pipe in living room.
Present Day: 2024- Nothing has been fixed and is refusing to fix it. Leak has spread into bedroom causing ceiling damage. The hole in the ceiling where original pipe is the wood and ceiling is covered will mold. I originally tried to tape the exposure,but since leaking the tape cannot stay and came off. The tape is pulled out a chunk of mold from ceiling. (I have the evidence in plastic bag in closet to be tested if needed). The problem is not in my apartment it’s upstairs at the landlord. Everytime someone showers upstairs the pipe would leak causing a puddle on the ground.

I do believe other parts of the ceiling are damaged because of the paint turning a brown color and when I touch it some of the drywall comes off (more described as dusty)
