Irondequoit to Better Track Renters
It's one of Rochester's fastest growing communities, and many who own property in the Town of Irondequoit are trying to cash in. Those who already live there are hoping a recently passed town ordinance will make landlords and future tenants live up to their responsibilities. The new law will help the town keep a close eye on rental properties, and whether or not they're being maintained properly. It's something all who live there have a stake in. Taking care of a piece of property all by yourself can be a handful, especially in the fall. "There's always raking, there's painting inside and updating appliances," said Bev Spayde. "All kinds of things and in actuality, it's a job," she said. Spayde has been taking care of a piece of property in Irondequoit for six years.

"Only 139 days until opening day. So baseball season will be here before you know it. It's great place to come down and pick something up for the fan in your life," said Dan Mason, Red Wings general manager.
