Are your roads still clean? Are the green spaces still mowed? Are plants still planted? Guess where your amenity fee goes. Surprise!

Can you cite a provision in the legislation? I know a person with a small business, and her landlord has refused to do anything to alter the lease.

If I were a landlord, I could understand postponing rent a month or two perhaps. But, at the end of the day the landlord’s bills need to be paid as well so rent cannot be “forgiven”. You sign a contract (lease) and for exceptional circumstances, rent can be postponed but will still need to be paid when this is over.

There’s that green eyed monster again. “The family can well afford” mentality. They owe nothing to anyone.

The only post I read here about bashing the Morse family is yours. The others are just a reasonable discussion of the new act regarding the business loans, and a simple question. These unwarranted attacks is what starts these threads to go awry.

It would be very generous for the CSU to reduce the fee since we have no use of the facilities. Of course they still have to maintain everything but I’ve not seen anyone cleaning pools.

Guess you haven’t noticed that the streets are clean and the open spaces are mowed. And by the way, pools are still being cleaned or they would become extremely difficult to clean when this is finally over.

I believe they are or will help their tenants as they certainly want them to thrive once this pandemic becomes less of a threat.

Be safe.

I could not give a rats behind what the Morse family has to say. It is not THEIR TOWN. Grandpa conceived it and they inherited it. You bought into it, as did I, and now it’s OUR TOWN.

Landlords
 
How do you know the Morse family isn’t negotiating with there tenants ? I never told anybody what I was doing or not doing in my business unless it was necessary
