OOS Managed Property - Citation Responsibility

[Marco G.]

One of my out of state properties that is managed by a company received a citation for a substandard fence. Based on my google maps street view that was updated six months ago, it appears numerous pickets are missing at random intervals. This is a corner lot property so it's really obvious as you pass by. The fine is almost $400, and being unaware of the issue had no way to prevent it. However, there have been numerous work orders for the property this year, and the crews would no doubt have observed this issue and should have reported it back for repair prior to my receiving the citation. So the question is, who pays the citation?

I'd show up unannounced.. and see what ya find, In my estimation you should probably do a yearly inspection on inside and out. Especially if you have more than one holding in the same area.
