The common laundry room collects building-side cites that nobody owns: the outlet by the sink without GFCI protection, washer hoses old enough to be a flood waiting for a weekend, the dryer vent disconnected behind the machine blowing lint into the wall cavity, and the door to the room propped or not closing. None of these is a resident's job and none appears on a unit checklist, so they survive until an inspector walks the room. A monthly laundry-room line on the building sweep — outlet test, hose date and condition, vent connection by hand, lint cleaned — closes all four in about fifteen minutes. What is the worst laundry-room find your team has walked into? — Otto Mergl, Admin
