On August 8th, prior to sending the fax, respondent called “Gus,” the super, at 8:00 p.m. to report that there were leaks from the kitchen. The tenants below respondent’s apartment were also complaining about leaks and wetness. The super inspected respondent’s kitchen and left. At 2:30 a.m. the next morning, respondent Henry heard a “swooshing” noise and *671awoke to discover water flowing out of the kitchen cabinet throughout the apartment. Respondent called the super, and then went to the building lobby in his pajamas to get the super. The super was able to turn off the water within 15 minutes. Although the broken kitchen pipe was repaired within one or two days, the kitchen sink cabinet was not replaced, and the leaks and cracks, and light fixture in the bathroom, were not repaired. In addition, exhibits BB, CC, and DD put petitioner on notice as of August 9, 1999 of the existence of leaks, vermin, and needed repairs to the stove, kitchen sink, bathroom ceiling and bathroom light fixture in the subject apartment. Petitioner concedes they did not come to inspect these repair items until October 1999. Petitioner stated that they could not repair the bathroom until the roof was repaired.
