Level 3's have a right to live in an apartment-there should be no reprocussins on the LL for renting an apartment to a level 3-however, the level 3 offender would have conditions to his release and if he is in violation of anyone of those conditions (such as 500 feet from a school/playground/daycare/womens gym boysclub-I think you get the picture) then he is not allowed to be there.
