I'm requesting a housing inspection for an ongoing German cockroach infestation in my apartment. We've had four professional treatments on April 9, September 25, October 15, and October 29, 2026, but the infestation has continued to worsen. We're currently seeing approximately 3–4 live cockroaches daily, including adults and babies, primarily around the kitchen sink and stove, but they sometimes travel to the bathroom and living room areas too. Management has acknowledged that several units in the building are affected and arranged a building-wide treatment on October 29. Despite following all preparation instructions and making our apartment accessible for every treatment, the problem remains unresolved. I'm requesting city involvement because I'm concerned the property may not be complying with 105 CMR 410.550(B) and (C), which require owners of multi-unit residences to maintain the property free from pest infestations and establish requirements for effective pest elimination. I'm also concerned about potential violations of 105 CMR 410.500(A), which requires buildings to be maintained in a pest-resistant condition and free of structural defects that allow pest entry or harborage. I would like an inspector to assess the infestation, inspect potential sources in the building, and determine whether management is meeting its obligations under the Massachusetts State Sanitary Code. Thank you!

Residential parking sign at 16 Caltha road has been removed again because the anchor system is so weak that college student just picks it up and throw it away. This is a reoccurring problem.

Abandoned car on Mendum St. has been sitting here for a couple of weeks. Obstructs street sweeping. Undriveable. Neighbors don’t know whose it is. Should be towed away.

The street light on Amory in front of the church (207 Amory) was repaired/replaced yesterday, but it seems to have been put back a little crooked.
