Cedar Rapids considers protections expanding housing rights
A Cedar Rapids public forum discussed proposed changes to the city civil rights ordinance. The plan would stop denying housing based on income from government assistance and marital status while adding gender identity protections and retaliation safeguards. The most contested provision bans denial due to income sources like Section 8 and discusses marital status in housing eligibility. A second forum is set for 5 30 tonight at St Pauls United Methodist Church. Leonard Sandler of the University of Iowa leads the revision effort with the Cedar Rapids Civil Rights Commission. Local Realtor Robin Tucker voiced landlord concerns about payment risk. Sandler explained joint leases and shared responsibility. The City Council must approve the amendments before enactment.
