Ranked from 124 total scoops using AI
A tenant has filed a code-violation complaint about illegal marijuana smoking at 5107 Keegan Way, saying smoke is seeping through shared walls and door gaps and constantly drifting into their apartment. The record lists Keegan Place LLC as the owner and notes the tenant says management isn't enforcing the lease—despite the family's six-year-old having severe asthma and a recent coma—and that the owner has allegedly tried to evict them or get them to sign a liability waiver. The case is open as an LMPHW tobacco/smoking enforcement matter, so local health inspectors may follow up.
A property maintenance case has been opened for University of Louisville student housing at 600 Ruggles Pl after tenants reported filthy, pest‑infested rooms and some plumbing that wasn’t usable. The owner is listed as Louisville/Jefferson County Metro Gov, the record is open, and related health and pest inspections are noted—so city inspectors are now involved to get this cleaned up.
A tenant at 3152 Vermont Ave reports the electrical system is “shocking out” outlets and appliances, the basement is flooded so the washer and dryer are inaccessible, and there are multiple other maintenance problems while children live in the home — the tenant says owner Ruiz Juan Manuel Contreras has threatened to sell. This has been filed as a property maintenance code-violation complaint requesting a Code Inspector ASAP; the city lists a response window of 1–20 business days and the case is open.
