From the closing order for Coun. Harvey Smith's former West End suite:

* The premises: "Are insanitary and out of repair to such a degree as to be unfit for human habitation."

* Inspectors found: "Mouse droppings and evidence of mouse harbourage throughout the suite, including mattress and other items throughout the suite."

* They also found: A "large accumulation of household garbage, debris, filth and hoarding of items throughout the suite."

* And they ordered the landlord: To repair "structural defects on walls, ceilings and floors, including water damage on all ceilings, defective flooring, cracked walls, peeling paint, defective and stained wallpaper and stained walls throughout the suite."
