          saddling cities with these same relocation costs from code enforcement,
          resulting in a disincentive for cities to provide displaced persons with needed
          aid in an emergency such as what occurred in this case. See 25 H.R. Proc., Pt.
          16, 1982 Sess., pp. 5381–82, remarks of Representative Thomas P. Brunnock
          (‘‘[C]ertainly the cities find themselves in a paradoxical situation when they
          look at a building that’s substandard and the first question that they have
          to ask themselves is can we afford to relocate people. And that’s really a
          sad commentary . . . .’’). Given these competing concerns, it is unremark-
          able that the legislature arrived at a solution that does not fully protect
          landlords or cities from the relocation costs associated with displaced res-
          idents.

                Both parties raise additional arguments about whether the plaintiff can
          assert the affirmative defense in § 8-270a, including whether the plaintiff
          even violated § 47a-7 in the first place. We do not reach these arguments
          because we conclude that the affirmative defense set forth in § 8-270a is
          not available to the plaintiff in this action.
