Hi Volusia Property Owners Association Member,
Daytona Beach is proposing a sweeping new landlord ordinance which
includes
-Licensing of all landlords { actually all properties not owner occupied }
-A new fee structure { probably to be 200.00 to 350.00 per property per year! }
-A point system where if you accumulate 6 points in 3 years, you would lose
you ability to rent your property!
-Registration of tenants and lots more!
Please read the new proposed law here
Daytona Beach Landlord Permit Ordinance
This proposed new law is bad government for the following reasons
1. This new ordinance basically attempts to layer on additional controls for
code violations. There is already an existing structure to fine properties with
heavy daily fines, { up to 2500.00 PER DAY } to bring properties into
compliance
IT IS A DUPLICATION OF EXISTING LAWS
2. It is burdensome to all parties concerned.
The tenant would be subject to increased inspections by City officials { if you
where a tenant, would you want City Officials rummaging thru your home?}
The City would have much additional burden tracking each point of each
property and time at hearings, etc.
The landlord incurs extra expenses with each inspection, as the inspector
must find things wrong to justify their jobs!
IT IS A BURDEN TO OWNERS WHO ARE ALREADY LIVING THE NIGHTMARE
OF OUR CRUMBLING LOCAL ECONOMY!
3. This is just another tax { anytime money is collected by the government it's a
tax!} If you have two homes of say 50,000 value { a typical rental home these
days,} the rental will pay double the tax of the owner occupied one, as it enjoys
no homestead exemption and no Save Our Home 3% tax cap!
Truly, rental properties often paying double the tax keeps owner occupied
property taxes lower. We are taxed enough!
THIS IS JUST ANOTHER ADDITIONAL TAX!
4. With mortgages so hard to get for owner to occupy and unless the City
wants to buy all the proprieties in town, Daytona needs to be attractive to
investors. This ordinance will make them invest elsewhere!
THIS IS A DISINCENTIVE TO INVESTORS!
5.With a point system, tenants could intimidate owners and purposely cause
them to lose the ability to rent there property!
THIS HAS MASSIVE POTENTIAL FOR MISUSE!
6. With investors looking elsewhere, this would increase the number of vacant
properties and cause blight. Why is Detroit so blighted? Their industry is in
retreat { like our tourism } and no one will invest in their City!
THIS WOULD CAUSE VACANCY AND BLIGHT!
7. If someone loses there ability to rent, a court battle would certainly ensue,
cost the City { ultimately the taxpayers } money to defend in court!
IT WILL BE CHALLENGED IN COURT AT TIME AND EXPENSE!
These are just a few of the reasons this bad proposed new law must be
stopped. Contact the commissioners by call or e mail and tell them NO to the
new proposed landlord ordinance.
