Can the Town do something about no heat in my apartment?
The Town requires all property owners/landlords to abide by the the Town's Property Maintenance Code, including providing appropriate heating for tenants. If the property owner is not responsive to your communications regarding heating issues the Town can review and require the property owner to fix in accordance with the code. Requests for Town assistance with this concern will be handled same day by the Property Maintenance division when reported between the hours of 8AM and 4PM Mon-Fri. After hours and weekends please contact the EH Police Department 860-528-4401
The Town Property Maintenance Code Section 602 requires that dwellings shall be provided with heating facilities capable of maintaining a room temperature of 65°F in all habitable rooms, bathrooms and toilet rooms. Cooking appliances shall not be used, nor shall portable unvented fuel-burning space heaters be used, as a means to provide required heating. For more information you can review Town Ordinance Chapter 7 and Property Maintenance Code.
