Dear neighbours,
Maria Street is one of the most quiet and family friendly streets in the Junction area. It is a beautiful place for starting a family, raising children, and enjoying everyday life. It is a place where most of us keep an amicable relationship with our neighbors and make friendships with one another.
The purpose of this petition is to address the landlord of 53 Maria Street about our disapproval over his irresponsibility to the neighbourhood and urge the landlord that things need to be changed immediately. Landlords have a responsibility to do their due diligence on tenants to which they rent units.
Landlords also have a responsibility to maintain their property in a good state of repair and fit for habitation and for complying with health, safety, housing and maintenance standards. Unfortunately, the landlord of 53 Maria Street is turning a blind eye on the deterioration of the building (photos attached) and activities/behaviours taking place in and around his building that do not fit in with the culture of the neighbourhood.
We love our street. We care about the neighbourhood we live in. If you are like us and share the same values of social responsibility and neighourhood living, please sign the petition and pass it on to your neighbours. We will bring this matter to the landlord of 53 Maria Street, the City Councilor and other city authorities if investigation is required. We will hold the landlord of 53 Maria Street responsible for the building issues and activities of his tenants that negatively affect our neighbourhood.
Thank you for your support!

To bring and maintain your building to a standard that complies with health, safety, housing and maintenance standards, including an updated certification from the fire department; repair any major structural damages to the building that may cause collapse (wall cracks and deteriorating foundation) in the immediate future; and to have a City inspector confirm that the building meets all municipal building standards;
