Recently, an article written by Kendra Baker, appeared in the Danbury News-Times to help bring awareness to Danbury’s Fair Rent Commission. The commission was created for the purpose of maintaining reasonable rental rates and eliminating excessive rental charges on residential properties within the City of Danbury. The Fair Rent Commission will investigate and act on complaints, inquiries, and other communications concerning alleged excessive rental charges in housing accommodations in Danbury.
Here is an excerpt from the article:
“Rising rents and lack of safety net or support has left many renters feeling helpless.
While state law offers protections against excessive rent increases and no-cause evictions to certain tenants — such as those living in complexes with five or more units or mobile manufactured home parks who are either 62 years or older, have a physical or mental disability themselves or have a spouse, sibling, child, parent or grandparent with a disability permanently residing with them — they aren’t available to everyone.
