Highland — Ch. 33 Art. VI Landlord Registration § 33-196
It shall be unlawful for an owner of a residential rental structure to rent that residential rental structure, either entirely or in part, to another person for occupancy as a residence, unless the owner shall have registered the residential rental structure with the city on or before January 1, 2011.

Plain English

Highland's Ch. 33 Art. VI § 33-196 establishes that residential rental properties must be registered with the city before they can lawfully be rented out. Specifically, owners were required to complete that registration on or before January 1, 2011. Renting a residential structure—whether the entire property or just a portion of it—without having met this registration requirement is considered unlawful under the ordinance.

For Property Managers

Under Highland Ch. 33 Art. VI § 33-196, compliant residential rental property owners ensure their properties are registered with the city before collecting rent or allowing occupancy. Because the original registration deadline was January 1, 2011, operators who have not yet registered should look into the city's current registration process to bring their properties into compliance. Maintaining up-to-date registration records is a standard practice for lawful rental operation in Highland.

For Tenants

Highland Ch. 33 Art. VI § 33-196 makes it unlawful for a landlord to rent a residential property without first registering it with the city, a requirement that took effect by January 1, 2011. Tenants who have questions about whether their rental unit is properly registered may contact the City of Highland directly to inquire about registration status. Tenant-rights organizations can also help explain what options may be available when a landlord has not complied with local registration requirements.
