Zoning & Conditions
All rental units must obtain a permit and pass a health and safety inspection based on a city-approved checklist. Permits are valid for one year or until a change in occupant, are non-transferable, and require separate permits for each unit. Owners must maintain a current register of all tenants and ensure no delinquent city taxes, utility bills, or liens exist on the property.
How to Obtain a Permit
1. Submit a rental unit permit application to the city including the unit address and owner/agent contact information. 2. Schedule and pass an inspection by the city's designee using the approved rental inspection checklist. 3. Ensure all city property taxes, utility bills, and liens are paid in full; the permit is issued for no fee and must be renewed annually or upon a change in occupant.
