OK Thanks. As of this post consider this topic closed as I pretty much have the answers I needed! Thanks to those who answered my OP questions!

I never said it did I refered to the dryer vent as another time the board was trying to gain entrance that one though the board president shut down the management company

Is there a way to get email alerts when they do update the page/case?

I did email the lawyer involved in that case you posted as the case is still open so even though from the documents it seems it was dismissed for some reason IJ still lists it as an open case so guess it's being appealed! So I wrote him to find out how I can get updates as the case proceeds...

it is if they have to enter your privately own apartment unit. As I pointed out in the post above these sort of inspections can in fact be done externally from the outside as that is how they did it this year. Some procedure where they snake in from the exterior exit of the vent and snake in all...

but point is they do not need entry into your unit to clean out the vents as this year due to my complaints last year they actually did it totally from the outside at the vent exit. So there was no need previously to inconvenience owners when they could have been doing it at least some of years...

like I mentioned above the documents we signed as far as I can tell do not have the document in them that the management referenced during last years dryer vent cleaning as that also broke down to an argument to which finally the board president at the time stepped in and told the management...

Yeah but the question sort of remains when can other peoples rights trump your rights. We see this alot in the 2A debate where the anti-gun crowd think they can deprive gun owners their right to keep and bear arms. So the question is where does the balance lay?

And that is alot why I raise this question. And in Seattle it's no surprise they think they can just violate peoples right to privacy with how little liberals here think about the constitution. To many here think it's an antiquated document without modern protections that is unless that...

Yeah see seems the case you mentioned might be falling under the same sourt of Supreme Court case I referenced where even administrative type inspections can be objected to, but from what I read it wasn't clear if they also included multi family dwellings like an apartment/condo building. One...

Right just the unit which as I said is partly why I suspected from the start that it would be because it is multi unit building (50) but as you said had it been a home there would be constitutional issues for them to do this reason I got curious where apartments stand in the grand scheme of the...

Never had home owners and probably never will. Just a personal choice maybe not wise especially living in an apartment building but just my wife and I's personal opinions on that. Mainly being in this building not such a huge issue for the unit itself as covered in the building insurance for the...

OK Thanks and yeah this is sort of why I was asking based on the link I sent in the OP one line stuck out at me which read hence my curiosity. But what you said was sort of my thinking as to the rationale for the inspection.

Reasoning just so I can better understand.

What is the name of your state? Seattle, Washington, which is in King County Hi First off I own the apartment we live in it is in a condo association (NOT Coop). My wife and I fully own our apartment no bank or other 3rd party involved 100% paid for. It is a condo building of 50 units with a...
