This <br />deters absentee landlord issues. <br />2.Require that the owner provide the tenants with a handbook on what they are responsible for <br />and what the city does not allow per the city code. <br />Bennett noted that the City Council will be reviewing the ordinance and process on October 17, <br />2005 at the work session. HRA member comments and recommended changes will be <br />incorporated prior to the work session and members were encouraged to attend. <br />c.2005 Proposed Fall Bus Tour (HF37) <br />Executive Director Bennett provided possible dates for an HRA sponsored fall bus tour in <br />October.
