Grandstanding from an idiot mayor. Severe problems back to at least 2017, but Pothole now threading a LAWSUIT in six days (play scary background music). Multiple lawsuits already filed and the property is in foreclosure, but you show ‘em Pothole! Other sources report a State lawsuit was blocked by a Marion County judge. It would be helpful to print that name and photo and maybe ask him/her/they to justify that decision.
More importantly, what is the missing lever to solve this? We are constantly held hostage by absentee landlords. At the very least expedite foreclosure and seize assets.
The missing lever is being blocked by the State Legislature. The Legislature is very pro-landlord. There are very few mechanisms for localities to actually hold landlords accountable and, when the cities do propose something, they’re pre-empted by the State. We saw this play out last year.
You should be blaming the GOP legislature and not the mayor.
Wesley H. – you’ll never see Chuck W. blame Republicans for anything because facts don’t matter to him. This story makes clear why previous attempts (including a recent suit by Todd Rokita) have all failed: a state law that favors owners over tenants no matter how dire the situation is for the latter. Maybe Chuck W. should move there and experience it for himself.
If the complex has accumulated as many violations as reported, why politicize this and blame the mayor? It appears that management has ignored the enforcement of the housing code over a long period of time. If so, maybe it is time to get their attention. A.T. and Wesley H. are right about bias in the legislature protecting landlords. For example, Small Claims litigants in housing cases are almost always screwed. In respect to being in foreclosure the defendants can always count on the courts to allow cases to pend while lawyers file repetitive motions each of which is ruled on with less than diligence or any effort directed at case resolution. There is plenty of blame to go around for the delays if you’re into that sort of thing.
As if on cue:
