Updated: 10:17 PM EDT Jun 8, 2021 The elderly and disabled residents of a Medford apartment complex had no air conditioning for most of a four-day heat wave in Massachusetts.Medford Mayor Breanna Lungo Keohn visited with residents of Riverside Towers on Tuesday and says the city had been putting pressure on the property manager to get the building's AC up and running."I'm a little heated myself because I'm pretty upset," the mayor said. "If they watched the weather and realized there was a heat wave with almost 100-degree temperatures, they should have planned accordingly.""It's just unbelievable. It really is," said Ann Gardner, a resident of Riverside Towers. "You can't sleep. You can't sit. It's really terrible. You don't want to eat, even."Loretta Censullo, who also lives in an apartment at Riverside Towers, says she is coping with cancer and is unable to leave her unit to escape the heat."I have a hard time breathing and I can't breathe, and I know I'm going to die, so let's be decent about it," Censullo said. "Put the damn thing on so we can have some air."The building's air conditioning was turned on late Tuesday afternoon. The property manager of Riverside Towers told NewsCenter 5 that state law requires that heat to remain on until June 15 and that the building cannot run heat and air conditioning at the same time, putting them between a rock and a hard place.Lungo Keohn says city officials are the ones who enforce that state code and can issue an exception to the rules.NewsCenter 5 has learned that the state code the property manager referred to does not actually specify when heating or air conditioning needs to be turned on or off, but instead the state sets a minimum/maximum temperature until June 15.
