Toledo City Council to vote on lead-safe rental property proposal

10/20/2020

​By Tim Schneider, Toledo Regional Chamber of Commerce
​At its regular meeting at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday, October 20, Toledo City Council is expected to vote on Ordinance 397-20 which would approve a new lead-safe program for residential rental properties with one to four units and childcare homes built prior to 1978. The ordinance would require such properties to obtain a lead-safe certificate by passing a visual lead hazard and dust wipe inspection. The certificate would be valid for five years, but fully abated properties would be eligible for a 20-year certificate. The ordinance would task the Department of Neighborhoods with coordinating the program, the Division of Code Enforcement with enforcing the program, and the Toledo-Lucas County Health Department with issuance of certificates. The compliance deadline for properties in high-risk census tracts would be June 30, 2022, and a five-year phase-in schedule would be established for remaining properties.

​Clambake 2020 presented by PNC looks entirely different this year. Unlike years past, we won’t be meeting at Hollywood Casino, we won’t be enjoying a delicious clambake meal together and we won’t be enjoying the warm September weather like we normally would for Clambake. However, that doesn’t mean we can’t still celebrate, and that doesn’t mean we can’t support local organizations that are putting in the work every day to make the Toledo Region a more positive place to live for everyone, especially for the most underserved members of the community.
