The document discusses the rental market issues in Ithaca, particularly focusing on the landlord-tenant relationship in college towns. It highlights the prevalence of unfair form leases that disadvantage renters, especially students who often lack bargaining power and exhibit rational ignorance and undue optimism regarding their rental agreements. The document advocates for the adoption of the Davis Model Lease (DML) as a solution to these problems, emphasizing its potential to create a more equitable rental environment by providing clearer terms and protections for tenants. The DML aims to address issues of affordability, transparency, and fairness in leasing practices within Ithaca's unique demographic context.
