However. Kerens said lie be
lieves the competition for af
fordable housing perpetuates
the problem, rather than forc
ing agencies to offer the lowest
possible costs
Like Dwyer. Kerens believes
any costs incurred by screening
applicants should l>e charged
in overall rent payments.
Meissner said the credit
check Gateway Village runs on
each applicant costs about what
his company charges $15. In
stead of banning the applica
tion fee, why not design legis
lation that would limit the fee
to what it costs to screen appli
cants. Meissner asked.
But Dwyer said that kind of
proposal misses the point of his
hill, that an application fee
makes finding an apartment
unnecessarily difficult, and
that applicants who are eventu
ally denied an apartment
shouldn't have to pay for being
turned down.
As for the bill's passage in
the Legislature. Kerens and
Dwyer both said they expect
the proposal to pass, despite
opposition from those in the
rental industry.
Although most of the bill's
sponsors are Democrats. Dwyer
said he expects Republican leg
islators also to favor the pro
posal.
"I’ve talked to some
conservative Republicans about
it. and they were appalled that
this kind of thing goes on.”
