This’s very ridiculous. The purpose is to keep young professionals and students away from Lowell. I am against this proposal.

This bill fundamentally undercuts property rights, and stands in opposition to common sense.

If this bill pass, it will increase the living expenses of a lot of UMASS students. They make the school nearby area more safer, why should they are punished?

This is discrimination. City already has rule for how many people can stay in one bedroom. Why do we need new policy?

Yeah, smells like a hidden agenda. If there are problems with a few residences, isn't that what police are for ???

Bad ordinance, infringement on property owners rights, more government overreach.

Why does government need to control everything? It's same as China that government requests every resident must register at local police office.

City cannot devalue property in such a manner as this. Is this to be enforced in all parts of the city ? Is this measure targeting one group ? Don't we have existing ordinances for health and parking ? One or two persons per bedroom, living within sanitary conditions is the norm, and the right to use ones home in such a manner cannot and must not be taken away. Such a capricious attempt to do so will undoubtedly be met with pause at the city solicitors desk, and will never get past the state attorney general. Does the city really want to try this ? Not a good idea

By doing you see a drop in registration and a chance to improve the city of Lowell. Which this city is very capable of doing. Think of the future!

All this will do is alienate future students and young professionals from remaining in the city of Lowell.

the city of Lowell has always show to be incompetent and clueless when it comes to provide choice and freedom to personal choices. This restrictive measure accomplishes nothing, benefits no one.

Figure out a way to achieve your goals without impacting students, instead of taking the easy and careless road!

This law is rediculous. Fair housing is a basic right.
