Panorama Apartments rent dispute pits tenants against new owner
Tenants of Panorama Apartments challenge a January rent hike from 395 to 495 dollars cited by new owner Ben Hern and city alderman Kathy Mandeville. Owners Baumann and Hern admit the increase was not handled correctly but defend it as lawful with Baumann’s approval. Some tenants, including James Wood staff writer Chapman, threaten court action while calling for rent cap protections. Government services official Ed Greenberg notes only the actual owner at the time may raise rents and urges those unfairly treated to use small claims court or the consumer line.
