10.d Discrimination against Section 8 Tenants
Ordinance amending Title 2, entitled "Human Rights," Chapter 1, entitled "General
Provisions," to eliminate the prohibition on landlords discriminating against Housing
Choice Voucher (aka, Section 8) holders. (Second Consideration)
Comment: The City Code prohibits landlords from refusing to lease to tenants who
have Housing Choice Vouchers (aka, Section 8). As of Jan. 1, 2023, this provision
is unenforceable due to a 2021 state law that preempts local governments from
prohibiting landlords from refusing to lease a unit to a person with a voucher. The
ordinance removes the City Code provision prohibiting landlords from
discriminating against tenants with vouchers. [Deferred from January 10, 2023]

10.i Assessment -91 Commercial Dr.
Resolution adopting an assessment schedule for court ordered fencing at 91
Commercial Drive and directing the Clerk to certify the same to the Johnson
County Treasurer for collection in the same manner as property taxes.
Comment: In 2020 the Court ordered the owner of 91 Commercial Dr. to install
'�� a solid wood fence to screen its industrial use from the adjacent residential use
7C as required by the Zoning Code. When the owner failed to do so, the Court
authorized the City to do so and assess the cost against the property. The City
installed a fence at a cost of approximately $18,500. The owner offered to make
monthly payments of $500 if the City would not assess the property and staff
agreed. The owner made monthly payments until March 2023 and has not
responded to staffs inquiry regarding the delinquent payments. This resolution
assesses the remaining amount due, which is $2,440.08.
