I am worried for what could happen if the city gets involved. On the one hand, more services may become available to help you; otoh, it may depend on your boyfriend, idk? I'm a renter, so my apartment has to pass city inspection every three years. Which basically means, a 3 foot clear path throughout the house. Which is a lot harder than it sounds. I had neighbors get thrown out from here for hoarding.

I wish we knew what your bf's city notices said! Sorry for being so nosy!
