PRP.7.11.070 Inspection Video Recording Procedures

The Housing Authority has found it essential to implement video-recording procedures for a number of reasons including the following:

(a) It provides a means to accurately back up paper records compiled during move-in, move-out, annual, and unscheduled inspections.

(b) It provides graphic evidence of the true condition of a unit, at the time of inspection that may be the result of poor housekeeping (cleanliness issues), vandalism or tenant caused damages. Due to the graphic nature of video tape recordings, this kind of documentation / evidence is difficult to refute by the tenant.

(c) It provides a means where by the Housing Authority can better defend itself against the many challenges it receives from tenants who contest charges levied upon them for the repair of damages caused to the dwelling unit.

(d) It provides a means where by the Housing Authority can better defend itself against the many challenges it receives from tenants when trying to uphold a Termination of Rental Lease and subsequently Eviction from the dwelling unit.
