that new rental information is
not appearing on the board
soon enough, nor coining down

Landlords, espei ially those
who have established reputa

could be served more efficient

phone in rental information,
she said

gathering information and
landlord testimony to present
to next month's task force
meeting, when members will
decide how to further pursue
the matter
