An effort to prevent tenants residing in foreclosed buildings from being evicted stalled Wednesday in the City Council’s housing committee.
Called the “Keep Chicago Renting” Ordinance, the measure was first introduced last year and has undergone several changes. Aldermen passed the ordinance but housing committee chairman Ald. Ray Suarez (31st) said it would be held in committee until its June 5 meeting to give opponents of the proposal more time to air out their grievances.
