Section 20.05.190 Application for rental permit.

1. All landlords must register all rental dwellings before offering them for rent. A rental registration fee of fifty dollars ($50.00) per rental structure is required at the time of application to register a dwelling unit. The rental registration fee shall be waived on new construction projects, which have received final inspection approval and have been issued a Certificate of Occupancy with no occupancy of rental units occurring prior to the issuance of a rental permit.

2. At the time of new, or first registration, an initial inspection of the dwelling unit will be scheduled.

3. Following the initial inspection, if it is determined by the inspector that the dwelling unit meets minimum standards of this code, a rental permit will be issued.

4. Registration fees are non-refundable when an initial inspection of the dwelling unit has been performed by the inspection services division.
