PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) — A Providence landlord has been summoned to court after being cited for alleged violations of a city ordinance meant to curb repeated unruly parties at housing near colleges.

The Providence Journal reports that Bob McCann of East Greenwich is accused of two violations of the so-called “orange sticker ordinance.” McCann declined to comment.

McCann owns 100 multifamily homes in and around the Elmhurst neighborhood that contain nearly 200 apartments, including many rented by college students.

Six troublesome buildings have received orange stickers since September, including three owned by McCann.

The stickers notify landlords, tenants and the public that police have responded to a nuisance gathering at the property.
