Langhorne Borough Council is scheduled to vote on the advertisement of a residential rental housing registration program ordinance. Borough officials have discussed the enactment of several housing and building related ordinances since January. Meeting minutes from March 12 have Interim Borough Manager Mary Zimmerman asking council to consider adopting three separate ordinances: an owner’s rental property registration ordinance; a use and occupancy (U&O) ordinance; and a safety/fire inspection ordinance. The ordinances would allow registration, U&O inspections, and fire inspections to be developed separately. Council directed solicitor Barbara Kirk to start with the development of a rental housing ordinance. The Suburban Realtors Alliance is following the progress of the proposal.
