Residents of Radnor Manor raised concerns about potential overcharging in rent during a recent government meeting, highlighting the need for better communication regarding the local rent leveling ordinance. One resident shared her experience of being charged $100 more than the advertised rent upon moving in, suggesting that many tenants may be unaware of their rights under the ordinance.

The resident pointed out that without knowledge of the rent control measures, tenants could be paying significantly higher rents—up to $500 more than previous rates—if they are not informed of the regulations. This sentiment was echoed by council members, who acknowledged the importance of improving outreach and education about the ordinance to ensure its effectiveness.

The council plans to address these issues in an upcoming work session dedicated to the rent leveling ordinance, with promises of increased publicity to inform residents. Additionally, concerns about noise disturbances affecting residents' quality of life were also raised, with one individual expressing distress over sleepless nights due to ongoing issues.

The meeting underscored the critical need for transparency and communication between the council and residents to protect tenants' rights and ensure fair housing practices in the community.
