Under § 152.100 of the Hamden Housing Code, property owners and managers should be aware that any official action declaring a unit unfit for human habitation is governed by a defined procedural sequence running through §§ 152.100 to 152.105. Compliant operators generally familiarize themselves with each step in that sequence — including condemnation procedures and placard requirements — so they understand what an enforcement action entails. Violations of the Housing Code can carry penalties as referenced in § 152.199.
