CLEVELAND — Frustrated tenants living at the Residences at Shaker Square apartments in Cleveland were relieved to hear the city will soon take legal action against out-of-town landlords who don't remedy property issues.

Anderson claims she and ten other tenants have had to find other forms of heating at their units for nearly two years. “I use one space heater, because if you use two it’s going to blow a fuse, so you have to open your oven as well," said Anderson."I put mine on 400 and I have to sleep with it open.” Griffin also said out-of-town property owners who don't appear in housing court on code violations and are found to be in contempt of court will face a civil lawsuit. Griffin said the city must get tougher on delinquent landlords who have left tenants in bad living conditions.
