Middletown landlords work toward new screening process

MIDDLETOWN —
Landlords who are part of the Middletown Investment Property Owners Association are considering new ways to screen tenants to better protect their investment properties and the tenants, they say.

The city is also working with landlords in the MIPOA and encouraging them to tighten up language in leases and to better screen applicants so public safety and other services are not wasted.

City Manager Doug Adkins told the group that he’s been with the city for 10 years as city prosecutor and neighborhood revitalization director and said he’s seen the crime rate rise over that period of time.

“We want to work with you….We know who the troublemakers are,” he said. “We don’t want to import problems to pollute our city. You need to protect each other. If you have a problem tenant, it’s not good for you, the police department or EMS.”

Adkins said the city will be continuing its use of focused task forces to curb drug and other criminal activity as well as identify possible nuisances requiring code enforcement “until people understand we’re not taking that crap anymore. We’re done.”

SO ADKINS, CO-CREATOR DURING THE GILLELAND ADMINISTRATION, NOW WANTS ALL THE "TROUBLEMAKERS" OUT. DIDN'T ADKINS SUPPORT BRINGING IN THESE PEOPLE TO ENHANCE THE CITY REVENUE WITH THE FED MONEY THAT FOLLOWED? SEEMS TO ME THAT HE SPEAKS OUT OF BOTH SIDES OF HIS MOUTH.

BOHANNON, TRACY AND THE OTHERS BENEFITED FROM THIS PROGRAM. THEY TOOK THE FED DOLLARS FROM QUALIFIED LOW INCOME TO OCCUPY THEIR RENTAL PROPERTIES. DIDN'T SEEM TO CARE THAT IT HELPED DRAG THE CITY DOWN TO GHETTO STATUS. JUST FILLED THE WALLET FOR THEIR BENEFIT IT SEEMS.
I'm so proud of my hometown and what it has become. Recall 'em all. Let's start over.
