Pottstown Residents File Second Lawsuit Over Rental Inspection Law
Original: Pottstown Residents File Second Lawsuit After Borough Tries to Circumvent Court Ruling with New Rental Inspection Law
Residents of Pottstown, Pennsylvania, have filed a second lawsuit against the borough, accusing local officials of trying to get around a court ruling by enacting a new rental inspection law. The dispute centers on whether the borough's inspection requirements infringe on property rights. The earlier ruling had gone against the borough, and critics say the new ordinance is a renewed attempt to impose the same burdens on rental property owners.
Why now: The borough's new ordinance is seen as an attempt to sidestep an adverse court ruling, prompting renewed legal action.
