Those kinds of stoves are easy to clean when the glass is intact. What
will you do when your tenants crack the glass surface by dropping pans
or other heavy items on it? Those things are expensive to
repair/replace!

Follow up with Final Solution:
I swapped out the switch from the always-on burner and a switch from a
properly functioning burner. The problem persisted so it wasn't the
switch. I took a look at the other parts it could be and determined
no matter which it was I it was going to be cheaper to discard the
stove and purchase a new used stove. This is what I did. I purchased
a coil burner as per the suggestion of KLS.

for future reference,
the burners are sometimes fed 240 volts, 120 at each end... and the
switch opens only one lead which will normally turn off the burner,,,,
but if there is a SHORT to ground in the heating element itself, that
will complete the circuit even with the switch off, it can be very
dangerous.
