Th e measure, approved by a 9-4 vote of the city council, requires the land- lord community to register an estimat- ed 140,000 apartments annually, pay an annual fee per unit, initially $25 per unit, then $15 per unit in subsequent years and be subject to inspections every fi ve years. Th e Small Prop- erty Owners Asso- ciation and the Greater Boston Real Estate Board Mayor opposed the change Marty Walsh that was cham- pioned by Mayor Thomas Menino and his environmental chief Brian Swett, who has been retained by Walsh. During the mayoral campaign, oppo- nents were buoyed when candidate Walsh told SPOA’s Executive Director Skip Schloming he would do everything in his power to overturn the ordinance, accord- ing to Schloming. But rather than fully gut the ordinance, Walsh has proposed to amend the law to make it more landlord-friendly. Walsh has fi led an amendment to the council pro- posing to waive the registration fees for rental units in 1-3 family owner-occupied buildings, and to provide for a hardship waiver for 4-6 family owner-occupied buildings in certain circumstances. “Th e mayor-elect told us he would work as hard as he could to repeal it and that’s certainly not what’s happen- ing,” Schloming said. “Th e previous law already provided for inspections once a tenant vacates a unit.

R IN BRIEF SUPREME COURT COULD DELAY MOMENTA’S PLANS TO SELL GENERIC COPAXONE Shares of Momenta Pharmaceuticals fell sharply earlier this week after the U.S. Supreme Court on Monday agreed to hear an appeal from rival Teva Pharmaceuticals that is challenging Momenta’s plans to start selling a generic version of its drug, Copaxone. The Supreme Court’s ruling American City Business Journals - Not for commercial use jeopardizes a July 2013 ruling from the U.S. Court of Appeals in favor of Momenta and Novartis AG, which also plans to create a cheaper version of the multiple sclerosis drug. The appeals court ruled that some of Teva’s patents related to Copaxone were invalid, clearing the way for generic versions to be marketed as soon as May 2014. But now the Supreme Court could overturn that ruling, preventing both Momenta and Novartis from marketing a generic version of Copaxone until September of 2015.
