City leaders to address bill on aging vacant homes in Baltimore
BALTIMORE - Vacant housing is an issue that has been plaguing Baltimore.
On Tuesday, Baltimore's Economic and Community Development Committee will discuss a bill on vacant structures.
The legislation specifically deals with 311 complaint fines, meaning a law could go into place establishing a fee structure for repeated and justified requests to vacant properties.
A fee would be imposed for each inspection.
The goal is to incentivize vacant property owners to address multiple complaints about their aging properties.
