A dancer friend of mine from Orlando wanted to move to Tampa and was looking at some area complexes. She brought over the info to ask me about the best area to live and I was flipping through all the info and read something in the lease approval polices I found interesting.
They have a section that talks about criminal history and it included both misdemeanor and felony sex related crimes. That means that if you've been arrested in a strip club and charged with indecent exposure, illegal contact, prostitution etc ,etc you can be refused an apartment.
I was taken aback by this considering that I have could not rent an apartment with this corp. ( they run tons of complexes) since I was charged with an exposure crime because my pasties were ever so slightly too small, as were 30+ dancers and I know of dozens more who were charged with lewdness. God am I glad I own my own home ! But I wonder how many dancers will have trouble getting apartments? Yet another reprocussion of anti strip club ordinances
By the way- the company is Camden. I don't know if the are a local or national but they run a dozen or so middle to high end apartment complexes in the Tampa area.
