What About Drug Activity In Rental Housing?

In 1990, Ohio added provisions to the Landlord Tenant Law which require landlords to evict tenants when the landlord has information from a law enforcement officer, based on a legal search, that the tenant, the tenant’s guest, or a member of the tenant’s household is involved in drug activity in connection with the premises. In some municipalities, landlords may be held liable for repeated drug violations in their properties.
