Rent-Impairing Violation in Boiler Room

Landlord applied for maximum base rent (MBR) increases for 1990–1991. The DRA ruled against landlord, and landlord appealed, claiming it had cleared enough violations to qualify for MBR increases. The DHCR again ruled against landlord. HPD's inspection report stated that landlord had denied access to the boiler room where the violation was located. So landlord can't claim that it corrected that rent-impairing violation. Landlord submitted no proof that it had been corrected.
