LIMA, OH (WLIO) - One Lima City Councilman says he wants to build a bridge between landlords and their tenants within the city.
6th Ward Councilman Derry Glenn will be holding a meeting to talk with any Lima landlord on how to better relations and services with their tenants. He says that the 6th Ward has the most concentration of rental properties in the city and he has been receiving calls from individuals about the increase in rents and lack of repairs to properties. His goal is to spark a change.
"We all know we're all in an inflation right now. I think it's time for me to sit down and speak with the landlords. Let me hear some of the things they have to say about the reason why some of the things are not being taken care of or the reason that the rent went up. They didn't know this agency assists with tenants. I'll have all that for them," stated Derry Glenn, Sixth Ward Councilman.
The meeting will be held Tuesday November 15th from 6 to 7:30 p.m. at the Wingate in downtown Lima. Again, any landlord is invited to attend.
