21 comments on Sunday column

January 10, 2008

It appears I’ve struck a chord with a few people (or Jonathan Owens has), but I’ve had by far the most comments for any single post this past week from my column on landlords letting their rental properties deteriorate and not doing thorough background checks on tenants. Some of the comments are from homeowners in the Rosemont McIver Historic District, and I’ve had a few more since.

I’ve post a link to the column with the comments. If you’d like to add a comment of your own, join the fray.

Sunday column: Onus is on the landlords for change

    I don’t take the Herald every day unfortunately, so I was curious if you published any “Letters to the Editor” in response to your editorial?

    I personally would love to hear what other Herald readers thought of the article, especially if other citizens found this to be an issue they thought should be a priority for the city to address.
