Baltimore County lawmakers said Wednesday they are considering privatizing and expanding a program that requires the registration and inspection of rental properties countywide.
Lawmakers said the program, criticized by county auditors as inconsistently enforced in the 14 communities targeted during its pilot phase, has too much potential to abandon. Councilman Vince Gardina, D-District 5, faulted administrators for not prioritizing the program, which targets absentee landlords who allow properties to decay.
