Their stated excuse was that it would impact the “financial viability” of the project. The committee wasn’t buying it. The new development will have more than 200 apartments. Accommodating 10 existing tenants at reduced rents will not make or break their financial bottom line.

The committee opted to refer the matter to our next city council meeting on December 11. I made it clear to Smart Living that they will avoid further reputational damage if they make a better offer to existing tenants, including the right to return at their current rent rates.

Over the next week, we’ll be fighting for better options for the tenants – so stay tuned for more. No matter what ends up happening with this zoning application, it is incredibly frustrating to not have good tools to protect tenants from unfair evictions.
