It costs the apt complex money to do huge pick ups and I’m all for the owner charging people for “dumping” but here’s my question – can he legally put up cameras/monitors and “trap” people this way? I mean, its the only way to enforce it, but just wondering if that’s legal.
There is absolutely NO security on this property – there are NO cameras on the premises or security at all. Not even secure gates.
Just to clarify the landlord wants to install cameras in the GARBAGE AREA WHERE THE RECEPTACLES ARE LEFT – He wants to see who is dumping what in the trash that requires extra HEAVY pick ups. Anything beyond normal house hold trash that is dumped, he plans on fining the tenants $100 PER ITEM.
things that are considered outside normal household trash are : broken furniture items, lamps, TV’s, computer monitors – things that ACTUALLY require a different way of disposal. There is nothing in the lease that talks about trash either. (believe it or not!) People dump their unwanted junk and expect people to clean up after them – THAT is what makes them pigs, Monica.
