A new initiative aims to bring thousands of rental homes up to code, with support for smaller landlords. Mayor Mary Sheffield announced the plan, which targets expanding rental housing compliance. The goal is to reach 25% compliance within one year.

Earlier efforts focused on senior buildings, where only 41 out of 111 were found to be up to code. A challenge was made to raise this number to 65.

Further details on the initiative are available, including a video report by Glenda Lewis. The plan's specifics and how it will be implemented are outlined in the report.
