Killingly, Conn., Code of Ordinances ch. 4, art. III § 4-62
Compliance required
Operative Text
Section 4-62 Compliance required A. No person shall let to another for occupancy or use any premise(s) which does not comply with the requirements of this Article. B. The owner of any premise(s), unless otherwise specified, shall provide and maintain such premise(s) in compliance with the requirements of this Article. C. Every occupant of a premise(s) shall keep all supplied fixtures and facilities therein in a clean and sanitary condition and shall be responsible for the exercise of reasonable care in the proper use and operation thereof.
Section 4-62 of Killingly's Rental Housing Standards Code establishes a three-way compliance framework. No person may rent out a dwelling that fails to meet the Article's housing standards. Property owners bear the primary duty to provide and maintain compliant premises, while occupants are responsible for keeping supplied fixtures and facilities clean, sanitary, and properly used.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 4-62 of the Killingly Rental Housing Standards Code, compliant operators generally ensure that every unit meets all Article III requirements before it is offered for occupancy and throughout the tenancy. This means proactively maintaining fixtures, systems, and facilities in the condition the Article requires — not merely responding to complaints after the fact. Operators also typically document the condition of supplied fixtures at move-in so that maintenance responsibilities between owner and occupant are clearly established.

Section 4-62 of Killingly's Rental Housing Standards Code gives occupants both protections and responsibilities: landlords must provide and maintain premises that meet Article III standards, but tenants are also obligated to keep supplied fixtures and facilities clean, sanitary, and properly operated. If a landlord fails to maintain compliant conditions, tenants may have grounds to raise that violation through Killingly's code enforcement process or as a defense in relevant proceedings. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with Connecticut housing law can help occupants understand which enforcement paths are available under this provision.
