home inspection done on mobile home notice of violation?

an outside inspection was done at the mobile home where i live at and now i got a letter in the mail (notice of violation) from the department of housing and community development the violations are

appliances shall not be installed outside the unit exposed to the weather (we have nothing plugged in outside)

extension cord is being used to supply power to a source that requires a permanent wiring method (i only own one extension cord and it's in my home)

there is an accumulation of refuse, rubbish, lumber scraps, paper, leaves, and brush materials under the MH unit (i don't go under my mobile home but maybe i should and clean that stuff up)

the water heater is not properly vented

the MH unit has been altered without a permit

waste water from washer sink and other plumbing fixtures is being discharged upon the ground or into an unapproved plumbing connection.

So the letter says all this needs to be fixed by March 15th, but we're moving out on Feb. 9th because our rent keeps going up and up about $300 every 6 months. So will the state try and hold us accountable for all this? we don't own the mobile home we rent it from a community type place, just got the notice in the mail today not exactly sure what it means for me as a tennant and we're moving out, but at least we're getting out before this place explodes seeing all the violations now.

Update:

i didn't break anything still live here until the 2nd week of feb though should i tell the office (from where we're renting at) about the notice, or how to tell them without trying to pin it on us

    interior the previous cellular residences have depreciated. in spite of the incontrovertible fact that interior the recent previous they have long previous up in value with the real sources advance. no possible inform you what is going to take place interior the close to destiny. I advise that in case you very own sources, carry onto it, as getting any funds out now could be no longer conceivable. The greater recent residences have a pair of reward: they're much less complicated to get loans on (cellular residences over 30 years previous are impossible to get loans on) and are outfitted plenty greater advantageous. they additionally deploy each and all of the brickwork, cement, beginning place, etc., so as that the homestead would be flow in waiting whilst they're executed. uncertain how plenty it fairly is to construct one, yet could be fairly worth him checking into in elementary terms for information purposes. i'm effective like each and every thing else, the charges will skyrocket with gas, etc. considering the fact that maximum folk right here in California can not have adequate funds something, they're back finding at synthetic housing. and you very own the valuables, so your threat of having a private loan in this is robust. I surely have lived in a cellular homestead and in a synthetic homestead as properly. i offered a cellular homestead for 82K and purchased for 105K 3 years later. so as that they DO flow up in value. i think of the those that are telling you this are going off the previous adage of trailer parks. They nonetheless exist, however the industry, the section and the producer undergo a great deal on the appreciation of the valuables. i could verify with a real sources criminal expert in the previous you do something, so once you're waiting to flow, you may sell it with out issues. good luck.

    Dude, your moving, and by all accounts for good reason. Don't worry so much- your landlord should sweat a little, not you. What me worry? Why not tell the front office, for Christ's sake they're the ******* who provoked the entire mess to begin with (presumably), they're not going to keep your first born if that's what your worried about. **** 'em and get the hell out of Dodge. I state this as a known landlord myself but I don't run a rotten household.

    I wouldn't mention it at all just in case your landlords DO try to pin it on you. Maybe it's some mistake from the city, & they were supposed to have mailed that to the landlords & didn't know you guys were just renters? Seems possible. OR the landlords may have already gotten something & already turned & pinned it on you guy. Either way, don't say anything, & hopefully you won't hear anything else about it.

    If you don't own it or live there then it's not your responsibility to fix anything for anybody, unless you broke it.
