Rental Ordinance Checklist

Rental Registration & Inspection Form

  1. I understand that this is something that has to be completed this year before 12/30/2021. Could you please explain how we register the units?
  2. Registering is something that we will have to do every year during the dates provided, correct?
  3. My corporate office is not local. What source of payments will we need to provide for this. Is this Net 30 as checks again only come out of our corporate office?
