DeKALB – The DeKalb City Council began vetting ideas and recommendations Tuesday of its Safe/Quality Housing Task Force at a special joint meeting.

There was no vote and no public input at the two-hour, heavily attended meeting. Mayor Kris Povlsen said there will be at least two or three meetings after this one in which citizens can weigh in.

The additional ordinances the City Council are considering fall under four broad categories: criminal activity, chronic nuisances, registration/licensing and rental property inspections.
