Baltimore Eviction Bill Balances Compassion and Cost | Annapolis News
Description
Baltimore’s City Council is debating a new eviction bill that would extend notice to landlords from one week to two weeks and give tenants up to seven business days—extendable to thirty—to reclaim their belongings, aiming to prevent sudden loss of possessions. Inspired by a 2022 federal ruling that found immediate property seizure unconstitutional, the proposal now includes free storage for the first week, with potential fees after. While advocates see it as compassionate, landlords argue it adds cost and burden, especially amid existing delays. The bill remains under revision, with no vote date set, leaving the tension between tenant protection and property rights unresolved.
