renters' rights

Tenants in a number of Ohio cities, ranging from Akron to Yellow Springs, have something that their counterparts in Cleveland lack: renter protection rights.

Housing rights activists and community groups in Cleveland are hoping to convince Mayor Bibb and city council to adopt renters protections that would make source of income discrimination illegal.

The advocates want Justin Bibb and Kevin Kelley to promise certain renter rights when a new administration takes over.
