My goals for the year are to increase membership, keep our organization fiscally responsible and continue to monitor the City of Kansas City in its efforts to impose more restrictions against landlords, both financially and in the way we operate our rental properties.

The Heartland Apartment Association has retained counsel to fight this action by the city and is preparing to fight them all the way. They have already won a minor concession and the City has agreed to fund the program through October 31, 2008. We are asking owners of 7 or more contiguous units to contribute $3.00 per unit (about one month’s rebate) towards fighting this action by the city. Please write “trash rebate legal fund” in the memo of your checks and send them to the Landlords, Inc. office. 0 Comments Posted on 11 Sep 2008 by Lanlords Upcoming General Meeting Join us at our next General Meeting on Tuesday, November 25 at 7:30 at the Central United Methodist Church: 5144 Oak Kansas City, Mo.
