[RPPTL LandTen] House Bill 921

[Dave Weisse]

There are some good ideas sprinkled throughout this massive proposed revision, but it would be a mistake to adopt most of these changes.   It is not time to reinvent the wheel.  Mandating litigation in the event of any dispute concerning deposit retention would completely overwhelm the judicial system.   It would be a good idea to clarify that partial rent acceptance does not waive the landlord's right to promptly pursue all default remedies for the existing rent balance, including eviction, but not as written in the proposed legislation.

    Anyone see this yet?  

     

    It is a big bill.

     

    Does anyone know who is behind it?
