Chreln St. •Pfeon® McHenry 490 Landlords in the Lake-Mcllcmry county rental area are continuing to get dollar-for-dollar rent increases covering higher costs of operating rent property if they make proper petition to the rent office, it |vas stated l>y J. Edwin Porter, associate rent director. The practical1 effect of changes in rent increases, and to speed up the job of handling the landlords' requests, the rent office has. simplified its procedures^ the rent official said. \ "We are going all the way helping landlords, particularly those who own just one or a few properties on which the rent has not changed, to get rent increases to compensate for the boost in prices of fuel, taxes, utilities and other expenses," Pprter declared. "All the landlord has to do is let us know what he is now paying for those items bought for his rental property and we can calculate the amount his costs have gone up without requiring him to show expenses four to six years ago." While the new method is intended to help^the amalLlandiojqdgwho btiB never "had S refit adjustment? the rent official said it will also benefit the landlord whose costs continued to increase after a rent adjustment. "In other words,"' he added, "landlords will be fully compensated for higher operating costs. Every rent boost made under this policy will be necessary and justified by good business standards."
