TYLER, TX (KLTV) – It was a KLTV 7 On Your Side investigation that raised some serious red flags. Mold was on the walls, and in one case, mushrooms were growing from the carpet inside a Tyler apartment building.
One of the senior tenants had been hospitalized before her children discovered the mold growing in the walls.
Inspectors with the City of Tyler Housing Services Office toured one of the apartments because the tenant gets rental help from the government. The city now says the property owner has declined to make the necessary repairs to continue under that rental agreement.
“These types of enlightenments help people help people be concerned and help landlords also understand that they need to monitor their property to ensure that these places are up to standard,” said Tyler Neighborhood Services manager, Andy Davis.
The city says they are now working with the tenant’s family to find another place for her to stay.

“Changes in construction methods have caused US buildings to become perfect petri dishes for mold and bacteria to flourish when water is added. Instead of warning the public and teaching physicians that the buildings were causing illness; in 2003 the US Chamber of Commerce Institute for Legal Reform, a think-tank, and a workers comp physician trade organization mass marketed an unscientific nonsequitor to the courts to disclaim the adverse health effects to stave off liability for financial stakeholders of moldy buildings. Although publicly exposed many times over the years, the deceit lingers in US courts to this very day.” Sharon Noonan Kramer
