Indiana Republicans are against cities managing themselves, pulling a switcheroo on bills at the last minute, and refusing to host public testimony. This is un-democratic.
Let me provide a situation that we wish could have had simple recourse to a Landlord. We were good tenants in a Hamilton County Apartment Community. Perfectly happy there. Great Apartment. Time came for renewal of our lease (90 days prior to expiration. Were requested to meet with Landlord’s Mgr. Did so. Were informed that their policy had changed and instead of remodeling when a tenant vacated they were going to do remodeling while we lived there. We are elderly people and wife is partially blind and major vision impairment. Could not drive to escape workmen and need to vacate while under construction. Wife also has COPD and unable to be around dust. We informed Landlords Mgr of these issues. Also wife could not lift or clean out cabinetry, move any items needing to be relocated during construction, Landlord was going to tear out complete kitchen, no cooking facilities, no pantry storage , nor refrigeration in Kitchen. Both Bathrooms were to be completely remodeled and fireplace was to be refaced. Further wife was scheduled for major surgery withing 20 days of meeting. Could not accommodate in anyway. We were informed conditions were such that no accommodations available to pay for relocation while under construction. Landlord said non-negotiable if we wanted to renew. No choice but to try and re-locate withing 90 days. Very short time to locate something & move. Fortunately we found another unit of same size and same floor plan in another section which were units owned by individuals (condo’s) and were forced to move. Cost for moving was prohibitive, but had to suck it up and move and incur substantial costs due to installing new toilets (which we had done in existing unit for our needs) and multiple other costs for additional shelving etc. Additional Security deposits.plus moving expenses , plus additions needed to accommodate new occupancy. Definitely needs to be protection for this type of Tenant abuse. (found later landlord had signed a contract to do all units within one year to save money. Also were raising rent 12-14%. Created many hardships for elderly tenants with refusal to work something out . Wife had to delay major surgery 2 additional times due to this major interruption.
That’s precisely the kind of abuse that goes on in this city — I soent 10,000$ trying to enforce my tenant’s rights through an attorney and couldn’t afford to continue. No need to tell my story other than it was the craziest ordeal involving a wealthy widowed landlady and two con men… and myself my very large rental home for which I prepaid each years rent at renewal time.
