Title
Discussion on Residential Rental Property Regulations
Body
Issue/Request:
Discussion over progress developing Residential Rental Property Regulations.
Key Issues:
To preserve the integrity and safety of housing options within the City, protect the rights of renters, and preserve the standards of the surrounding neighborhoods, it is desired to have a discussion on potential rental inspection and proactive code enforcement measures within the City.
This discussion will be an update on the progress made since the September 2017 CEDC meeting. A staffing and fee estimate for the program will be presented. Staff is seeking feedback on the assumptions and estimates.
Proposed Committee Motion:
N/A
Background:
In December of 2011, Mr. Mark Dunning presented information to the CEDC regarding potential Rental Inspection programs for discussion.
In August of 2017, a discussion with CEDC occurred, and staff was directed to prepare an ordinance for review and discussion within 6 months. As part of the program development process, we are updating CEDC on the progress made each month and having a public discussion.
In September of 2017, a review of existing programs located throughout the metro was presented along with a proposed framework for a Lee's Summit program. The discussion also included the proposed next steps in the program development process.
