Subject: Mandatory Building Inspection Proposal

There is a hearing today about the inspection proposal, but I am unable to attend. I would very 
much appreciate if my voice could be considered when you are at the meeting.

I am a landlord of 2 properties and live in one duplex that is in the Lincoln Village area. I am 
highly opposed of the proposal that is on the table about mandatory inspections. I don't see the 
point/goal of what will be accomplished if this is passed. I firmly believe landlords that don't 
upkeep their properties should be held accountable...but that is what the DNS is for, going 
around and inspecting troubled homes. A mandatory inspection where home owners are expected 
to pay for things that existed when they bought the property is wrong and will make being a 
landlord not profitable. 

A possible alternative solution is perhaps to gather lists of properties with severe issues and 
attack it from the community level first. This way we the community/neighbors/renters/owners 
can see if we can bond together and help each other with repairs in a barter/exchange type of 
approach. We are all responsible. The SOC is a great resource and could be utilized with this 
idea. 

Thank you,
