The Buenas on 32nd apartment complex in Phoenix has received a cease-and-desist letter from Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes to fix an air-conditioning problem that is affecting up to 400 units during one of the hottest summers on record.
The demand letter for the Arizona Attorney General’s Office has been sent to Buenas Communities LLC and requires “immediate action,” according to a release from Mayes’ office.
“The extreme heat poses a serious health risk, and it’s unacceptable for tenants to be without proper air conditioning,” Mayes said. “Buenas Communities LLC must take immediate action to ensure residents have safe and habitable living conditions in accordance with the law.”
The cease and desist letter details potential violations of the Arizona Landlord Tenant Act, Phoenix City Code and the Arizona Consumer Fraud Act.
“The Attorney General's Office expects Buenas Communities LLC to repair the air-conditioning system for all affected units by 5 p.m. on Friday, July 26, 2024, and provide written confirmation of compliance by 5 p.m. on Monday, July 29, 2024,” the release stated.
“Every Arizona resident should feel safe and comfortable in their home – regardless of their income bracket,” Mayes said.
