Dallas City Council approved a new ordinance to prevent slumlords from creating neighborhood blight. The new ordinance will require owners to register with the city and will give officials new powers to crack down on those who don't keep their property up to standards.

Failure to register or cooperate with the program could result in a $2,000 fine. Non-resident owners will also have to pay a $25 fee and register basic contact information with City Hall.

Check out the video which identifies slumlord properties and the owners' personal homesteads on the other side of the tracks.
