It’s short notice, but the city has just announced a community forum on the topic of landlord licensing/registration. If the last City Council hearing is any indication, this should be quite interesting.

That is late notice, but thank you for the reminder. It’s tough for most of us who are terminally busy to keep a lot of things top-of-mind.
Appreciate your post, and your attention to the important stuff.
Late notice indeed! That way they get as little informed opposition as possible. I am sure all the pro landlord taxing advocates were informed ahead of time.
I suggest we license tenants and when they destroy the property, fail to pay rent or skip out on the lease they loose all rental privileges and remain homeless!
Perhaps we should propose a tenant tax that would go to reimburse property owners who have to wait the 90 days it takes to get an eviction in Jackson County.
As I expected the city has once again failed in their stated obligation. It is now December 1, 2007 and even though http://www.kcmo.org states:
“Starting Dec. 1 ….. You will also be able to download an application from the City’s Web site (http://www.kcmo.org/neigh).”
They have not yet made the form available. So as I expected they passed a law, and provided no way to comply with the law so that they can fund this debacle with the fines they intend to impose on those that do not comply!
By making it impossible to register they can fine us for not registering!
This is not about neighborhoods it is about money!
So this law is to control all the absentee landlords that have deteriorating properties. But if you look, most of the deteiorated properties are vacant, with deceased owners, are owned by banks, or are waiting for repairs – they are not currently being offered for rental by anyone. And from everything I can read – they don’t need to be registered anyway. But can’t get an answer from my emailed questions to the city officials in charge.
