I regularly perform renovations and repairs to common areas in a large apartment complex. Must I provide separate notice to the tenants for each one of these activities or is there any way to avoid such duplication?
Answer: EPA recognizes that neither residents nor owners/managers/renovators are well-served if duplicative notifications are frequently issued for similar renovation activities. There are several options owners/managers/renovators may use to most efficiently provide residents in both single-family and multifamily housing with the necessary information. (A) Informational Signs – Owners/managers/renovators may provide notice…
-
Must notifications for common area renovations always be provided to every unit in a multifamily housing complex?
Answer: Not necessarily. When renovations are to be performed in common areas of multi-family housing (i.e., those portions of the property generally accessible to all residents/users), the RRP Rule requires that each “affected unit” be notified in writing. See 745.84(b)(2). As a general matter, all units in the housing are…

The RRP Rule requires delivery of the “Renovate Right” pamphlet to the owner and occupants of target housing. My firm was hired to perform a renovation in a pre-1978 apartment building. Is delivery of the pamphlet to the property manager sufficient for purposes of delivery to the owner of the building?
Answer: Yes. Property managers are acting in the capacity of agents for the building owners. For this reason, a property manager may receive, and acknowledge receipt of, the lead hazard pamphlet on behalf of the owner. In situations where property managers or their employees are performing the renovations themselves, they…
-
Does a renovator need to attempt personal delivery of the lead information pamphlet to a tenant more than one time before utilizing the “self-certification of pamphlet delivery” option?
Answer: Personal delivery of the lead information pamphlet is preferable, wherever possible, because EPA believes that tenants will be more likely to read the information if it is handed directly to them. It also affords tenants an opportunity to raise concerns and ask questions about the renovation. EPA recognizes, however…

In a typical co-operative apartment building, occupants do not own the individual units; rather they “own” an undifferentiated share in the entire building and then “rent” back a specific unit from the co-operative corporation. Similarly, in a typical condominium building, owners of individual units jointly own the common areas of the building. For purposes of the pre-renovation education requirements, who are the “owners” in such situations?
Answer: EPA recognizes that co-operative apartments (“co-ops”) and condominiums (“condos”) can be structured in a variety of ways. For example, in the case of co-ops, a corporation (sometimes referred to as a “co-op association”) is often established and owns all the units and common areas comprising the co-op; in such…
