AI Summary

Answer: Two housing units missed their required inspections, and five units with failed inspections weren't re-checked on time.
Trend: There is a pattern of missed inspection deadlines and inadequate tenant notification across multiple units.
List: Follow up by ensuring all units are inspected on schedule, re-inspections are completed within 30 days, and proper documentation is provided to tenants.

Finding Text

The Lake Housing Commission had 2 units that were not inspected within the biennial timeframe and 5 units with failed inspections not re-inspected within the required 30 day time frame. There were also 6 units without proper documentation notifying the tenant.

Corrective Action Plan

The commission will work to develop a secondary system to track inspection dates, corrections and dates of re-inspections to avoid any potential loss of data should an incident occur that causes loss of tracked data like that which occurred last year. Staff shall be trained on the correct use and upkeep of the spreadsheet.
