Milton Chamberlain Kansas City MO NEW Source of Income Discrimination Ban Ordinance
22 June 2024 | 17 replies
This ordinance is significant for its comprehensive approach to addressing source-of-income discrimination, particularly in the context of housing and rental opportunities.Key aspects of this ordinance include:The creation of a $1 million Landlord Risk Mitigation Program to financially assist landlords who accept tenants with vouchers, such as Section 8.Establishment of a landlord liaison position within the City’s Housing Department to facilitate communication and support.Landlords are allowed to deny rental applications based on individualized assessments, such as criminal convictions, credit scores, and eviction history, but the ordinance also sets clear guidelines for what can and cannot be considered.It includes a delayed effective date, allowing time for landlords and tenants to adjust to the new regulations.The ordinance also specifies that certain properties, particularly older houses that cannot easily comply with current codes, are exempt from some of the source-of-income requirements.The guidelines provided by Kansas City's Ordinance 231019, detailing what can and cannot be considered in rental applications, include several notable points aimed at balancing the rights and concerns of both tenants and landlords:Individualized Assessment Allowed:Landlords can deny rental applications based on specific, individualized factors, including criminal convictions, credit score, eviction history, alleged damages, and rent-to-income ratio.
