Rental Registration

About the Residential Rental Registration

On April 4th, the City Council adopted a Residential Rental Registration Ordinance. 

Rental registration programs are often used by local jurisdictions as a tool to promote community health and safety through the identification of residential rental units and corresponding up to date emergency contact information. This minimally collected information is also vital in supporting cities in assessing current rental housing stock and future rental housing needs,  develop and implement Housing Element requirements, support additional production of rental units, and to provide a robust platform to provide much-needed Fair Housing services and supports, such as linkages to mediation assistance, access to potential rental supports and landlord incentives,  and relevant information regarding applicable legislation and regulations and locally available resources.
