Dear Mayor Heidi Harmon,
W
JAN 2 7 2017
CITY CLERK
Please repeal the housing inspection program. I do not believe it is fair to have a mandatory forced inspection of a
private home and invade the privacy of City residents! To intrude into, take photographs, and the most private spaces
of a home are appalling. These include bathrooms, closets, and bedrooms. How embarrassing that would be!
The rental housing program should be abolished and replaced with a non-discriminatory ordinance to protect our
privacy.
The % of fails seems like a crooked way of accumulating fees and income for the City. The high failure rate is due to the
vague guidelines, allowing the City to silently discriminate in determining whose homes are targets, and which ones are
not. I image you are targeting based on income, political activity, or status as a renter or owner.
Kind Regards
Eric Paton
President and Co -Founder
