According to the Albert Lea City Tribune, the city council is voting to pass a new ordinance to have all landlords licensed by the city. Apparently the new ordinance will require facility site inspections as well as requiring landlords to turn over names and phone numbers for all tenants. While it may seem that licensing will protect tenants from bad landlords, citizens are worried about the privacy issues involved with providing the city with names nad phone numbers of tenants. What do you think?
