• Lorelei has 4 office hours per week: 2 on Wed; 2 on Sat.
• Lorelei met with Nick after the stairs were brought to code (without permit) then she suddenly couldn't remember who I was just
a week later!
• The old woman who wrote letter/brought pictures & was coping w/complications from invasive breast cancer treatment who injured herself
on the stairs with whom she chatted about her nephew's allergies, alternative health care, and ADHD.
• Saratoga is a shrinking town of 5,383 - a lot of businesses closing & I never saw anything resembling a building boom in progress.

6. 9/28: 2 days after their repair to code of the stairs and 4 days after I visited Building Inspector, a Quit/Pay Notice was taped to my door: Wisc Statute 704.45 Retaliatory conduct in residential tenancies is prohibited
(1) Except as provided in sub. (2), a landlord in a residential tenancy may not increase rent, decrease services, bring an action for possession of the premises, refuse to renew a lease or threaten any of the foregoing,if there is a preponderance of evidence that the action or inaction would not occur but for the landlord's retaliation against the tenant for doing any of the following: (a) Making a good faith complaint about a defectin the premises to an elected public official or a local housing code enforcement agency.Rent had been paid on 9/15 per agreement of 7/06 (email - below) and abated per Wisconsin Statute 704.07(4) untenantability as described in the letter provided with my check on 9/15
Arendt attached a letter to the Quit/Pay notice revealing the true basis for their Notice: "It appears you are unhappy with my client's management of its trailer park."
Posting the Vacate in 5 days or Pay full rent 4 days after my visit to the Building Inspector resulting in their necessary correction of the stairs for unrepaired door, windows, & water is called retaliation §704.45(1)(a)
Arendt's letter & Notice here.
Alleged late fees were calculated from 9/1 rather than the 15th padding the notice with an additional $70.00.
Lease provides late fees
of $5/day. Did young Joey "forget" both what he wrote & when he wrote it in August - just a little over a month earlier? Did he see it as a way to get a few more
dollars out of the fraudulent rental of the unit? Is he just following in his daddy's footsteps?
dollars out of the fraudulent rental of the unit? Is he just following in his daddy's footsteps?
Arithmetic & excerpt from lease re "late" payment here. Is arithmetic as hard as legal?
The photos below are from all the taps in the unit around time of their 9/20
(no show, no cancel, no rescheduled appointment)
to 9/28 date of Arendt's notice
Five Skies had been notified eleven (11) times from 5/10-9/11
about the water & other necessary repairs.
Nothing was assessed, nothing was done for 142 days
about the water, the door, or the windows.
