Cancellation & Absentee Fees

There are hereby-established unauthorized cancellation and absentee fees. When an owner or manager fails to keep a scheduled inspection or meet the rescheduling requirements a fee of $150 shall be assessed. The next subsequent unauthorized cancellation or absentee fee, within the same licensing period, shall be assessed at $250. All future unauthorized or absentee fees, within the same licensing period, shall be assessed at $500. No operating license shall be issued unless said fees are paid in full.

If an owner or agent would like to reschedule an inspection, Property Standards requires at least a 48 hour advanced notice. Requests to reschedule appointments will only be considered if this is the 1st reschedule request and if Property Standards is contacted a minimum of 48 hours prior to the scheduled inspection date and time. Failure to meet these requirements may result in the applicable missed inspection fee.
 

Late Charge Fees

There are hereby-established late charge fees. All rental license renewals are due by August 31 every year. When an owner fails to pay a dwelling unit operating license fee by the due date, a late charge fee of $80 shall be assessed. Said fee shall increase to $160 if license renewal is over thirty days past due. Late charges shall be assessed for each building, except in cases of single unit and two unit buildings being on one zoning lot, in which case late fees shall be assessed per zoning lot. For condominium and townhome buildings, late charges shall be assessed for condominium or townhome units within the same building. No operating license shall be issued unless said fees are paid in full.
