@Rockville411, @GburgMD and other elected officials got the invite. I was ecstatic to take them up on it!

Hopefully this is the case and state legislation on transparency in rental fees will pass. But if not I think this is something the City should take up and pass into law within the @Rockville411 - like our neighboring city @GburgMD did already.
