It passed.  PP, you got what you wanted.  Bring on the accessory apartments![/quote]

Passed unanimously![/quote]

Hooray![/quote]

Boo

Well, that's a whole bunch of people I won't be voting for in the next election. Navarro isn't looking out for her own district.

Our neighborhood just got rid of it's last illegal multifamily rooming house, and it took the police to get the stragglers out. 
And, just sold off the last foreclosures this past year. I'm sure the addition of more ADUs will not be helpful, and will lead to more rooming houses and more Airbnb houses.

But hey, as long as investors and people in TP and Bethesda are making money, it's ok to chase those of us who want to buy an under 550k sfh in sfh neighborhoods to Howard and Frederick.

How did you get them out??  Any tips?  Do you have an HOA?

We are fighting two of them on our street and the County has been unable to do much.

We have pictures of the three families that live there.  Pictures of the 6 vehicles lining the street.  Proof that the owner lives elsewhere.  And no rental license.  What else can we do??[/quote]

Unfortunately, we didn't do much of anything that made a difference. House prices rose enough in our neighborhood to encourage the owners to sell to a single family.

Prices are still under 500k, but it was enough to make renting to multiple families who were trashing the house less appealing. So happy all those cars blocking half the road to our neighborhood are gone!

Anyone else have any advice for the pp? 
How do you report these violations when you have evidence? Will anything be done? [/quote]
