Nuisance property - Eviction Questions - PA

[Shannon Trivett]

I have a tenant who has been in place for 3 years and a few weeks.  May 1 I signed a 6 month renewal. 

1 week ago today while I was waiting for appliance delivery the neighbors decided it would be a good time to tell me how much of an issue the tenants had been. Monday they went to the city. 

City has declared these tenants a nuisance property. I have been sent a certified letter of such. 

From what I'm reading I can serve a 10 day notice to vacate for conducting an illegal act.

Can anyone confirm this?

This is the sample letter that site provides

They owe partial rent today, so I'm hoping to post/deliver when I collect rent.

@Nathan Gesner at this time they are only legally guilty of being a nuisance.

I was approached by the neighbors on the Friday preceding the Monday thy went to the city. After talking with the code enforcement office it sounds like they are generally bitchy neighbors who are never happy and he knows that. 

  I did convey to the neighbors that I could not fix a problem I was unaware of. I had made plans with the tenant to do  inspections every other week  to ensure there we no other occupants not listed on the lease.   Neighbors had claimed an additional 3 adults and 2 children were living with the tenants.   Water usage and visual inspections during repairs support the tenants claim of just themselves and their own children. 

It's just a sloppy mess.   I've since called the tenant and let them know the city will remove them via lock out if there is anymore trouble and I encouraged them to relocate.
