CityCouncil | 2008-03-18 | 4 | nuisance continues. Mayor Johnson inquired whether separate standards could be adopted for maintenance of rental properties. The City Attorney responded the issue can be reviewed if there are rational distinctions between rental properties and owner-occupied properties; a reason would be needed. Councilmember Gilmore stated the issue should be pursued aggressively; ignoring the City should not be tolerated. Councilmember deHaan inquired whether the complex has any vacancies, to which the Planning and Building Director responded in the negative. Councilmember deHaan stated the City would have some control if the complex has Section 8 tenants. Vice Mayor Tam stated that she concurs with Councilmember Gilmore regarding being aggressive with the property owner. Vice Mayor Tam moved approval of authorizing the Mayor to send a letter to the property owner encouraging compliance with the Rent Review Advisory Committee's recommendations and listing fines that would be imposed for code violations and health and safety issues raised.
