State rent control proposed amid shortage crisis in Harrisburg

Root and Louis Sox push a bill modeled after New York, proposing a $1,000,000 appropriation and a state rent commission with a $10,000 annual salary. The measure would nullify federal rules in most areas but allow local action to curb vacancies above 1 percent and impose up to two years in jail and a $5,000 fine for violations. The article notes an odd line about the Andesly Port tomato origin.
