[8] Although Little was brought as a public nuisance action rather than one involving a private nuisance, it was based on the same general type of housing deficiencies as are involved here, e.g., holes in the roof, sewer backups, etc., which were alleged to be public nuisances under various regulations and municipal ordinances. The case upon which Little relied, State ex rel. Bohon v. Feldstein, was a private nuisance action, a fact which suggests that for the purpose of our holding in this case, it makes no difference whether the alleged nuisance is public or private.
