I think that your comment, Patrick, would be the same anywhere. I don’t see how, especially in a suburb of a big city, they could possibly hope to enforce this. Probably try to make an example once or twice and hope no one else does it, til the bozo dies that came up with it.

Since they will have to go to court to get eviction notices, there shouldn’t be any way they could enforce such a law. “Common Law” marriages are still legal. Which means a heterosexual couple (anyway) would be exempt because they could just say it’s their intention to get a “Common Law” marriage by living together for however many years is required.

And as far as I know … I’m sure a contractor can correct me if I’m wrong … an occupancy permit isn’t based on any particular individual/family qualifications. It’s based on the condition of the dwelling. Unless, of course, the city changed the permit process. But just passing a law outlawing such behavior wouldn’t automatically result in denial of occupancy permits.

I think, if someone were to look into the reasoning behind this law, that the city council wanted to prevent illegals from cramming multiple families into a single dwelling.

Good point Carrie.

I don’t think this has anything to do with Illegals and has more to do with Gay and Lesbian couples and the “Un-married with kids” crowd.
