Lawrence city leaders have approved changes aimed at strengthening the inspection program that is meant to oversee the thousands of rental properties in the city. As part of its meeting Tuesday, the Lawrence City Commission voted 5-0 to adopt an ordinance that includes several changes to the city’s regulations for property rentals. Commissioners previously discussed a draft of the regulations and agreed that the ordinance addressed their concerns. “I don’t think that we’ll ever have a perfect system, but I do think this brings us forward in that system and is worth giving a try and seeing what tweaks we need to make in the future as well,” Commissioner Jennifer Ananda said.
