City inspectors use locksmith to enter renter home
City inspectors obtained an administrative search warrant and used a locksmith to enter Monte Turner’s rental at 924 Murrow Court Thursday afternoon under a new landlord registration law. Turner, at work, argues the Fourth Amendment privacy right, while city officials defend legality and say they are enforcing the law. A tenant-landlord coalition plans a lawsuit, with spokesmen criticizing the inspections as improper. Since February, more than 1,800 properties have been registered and 1,575 inspections conducted on 1,030 homes in single‑family zones.
