For Property Managers

Under § 17-87, the Residential Rental Business License Program is subject to annual legislative oversight through a report submitted to the Board of Alders. Operators participating in the RRBLP should be aware that program-wide performance data is compiled and reviewed at the city level each year. Staying in good standing with the RRBLP means that a landlord's compliance record may be reflected in the information reported under this provision.
