The hearing concerns alleged housing conditions including pests, moisture, bathroom and heating issues, and a dispute over utility metering. The tenant must pay December rent directly to the landlord and make future $1,690 payments by the fifth of each month into a town-held account until the commission reaches a final decision. The landlord must arrange building-wide pest treatment, provide 24 hours’ notice before entering for repairs, and use licensed contractors. The hearing is scheduled to continue on January 28, 2026, or sooner if inspection reports are completed.
