Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Glenwood Ch. 26 Art. XI § 26-820, landlords and short-term rental owners should be aware that the village has multiple valid channels for delivering a notice of violation, including certified mail, email, and physical posting on the property. Operators who keep their registered agent information, principal business address, and email address current reduce the risk of missing a notice that was properly served. Staying informed about any notices delivered through these channels is a standard part of compliant property management in Glenwood.
