Those of us who complied with the ordinance, spent money to have the properties inspected and paid fees to the Health Department.  Any word how we can get our money back?

Perhaps a suggestion for the next amendment to the ordinance, it could include a maximum time the health Dept has to “process” certifications or allow properties to be tenanted once the landlord has obtained a passed inspection and wipe test with paperwork submitted to health department. Because at the end of the day, the certificate is just a formality at that point.  Thoughts? Is this something that has been brought up before?

@Adam A. seems unfair to be at the mercy of the health department to “process” certifications.  My last lead certification...from the time I submitted the inspection report and passed wipe test lab report, it took several weeks to obtain a certificate from the health department.  That’s lost revenue due to the health department inability/under staffing issues.  

@Adam A. once the ordinance is in full effect for your trier, is the landlord required to have the property certified lead-safe prior to placement of tenant?

@Adam A. Is there any grace period once the ordinance is in full effect? Meaning, I have a new Property and want to move a tenant in right away...unfortunately it takes time to get inspected and then for the wipe test to come back, then the longest wait is getting the health department to issue certificate.

@Renee F. I recommend @Adam A. to do your lead inspection.  He’s done some for me, does a great job in explaining.  

Where abouts in 43612?  I’ve got a couple properties in that zip code.  Both tenanted and doing well.

where is it near?

If anyone is looking for a lead inspector in the Toledo area, definitely take a look at @Adam A.  He’s done mine...it was a very smooth process, especially for living out of the area!
