I read the staff report on this proposal for mandatory periodic inspections of rental properties, a very onerous, intrusive, expensive process for both landlords and tenants. Councilmembers talk about keeping rents low, but this will do the opposite.
I saw no mention of documented need for the program. What problems is the city council trying to solve? More tax revenue?
As to comparable cities, what is not mentioned is that most cities by far do not have such a program. Only a few of the cities with inspection programs are mentioned. Misleading.
