out within 14 days from the date of this notice. Some local governments may have an
eviction notice period longer than 14 days.
If you fail to pay or vacate the premises within 14 days, I have been authorized to commence an
eviction action against you in Housing Court to have you forcibly removed by the County
Sheriff. The filing of an eviction action may severely affect your ability to obtain rental housing
in the future.
We look forward to working with you in this matter and ask that if you have any questions,
please contact me.
Sincerely,
Jeff Edison
