Inverness CHAPTER 15 RESIDENTIAL RENTAL HOUSING CODE § 3-15-6 establishes the process by which rental property owners must obtain and renew operating licenses from the Village. Applications must be submitted in writing at least 30 days before a license is needed or before an existing license expires, and must be signed by the legal title holder. The application requires detailed information about the property, its owners, any managing agents, decision-makers, and alarm service companies. Owners are also required to notify the Village Administrator within seven days whenever any of that information changes.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 3-15-6, compliant rental property operators in Inverness submit a fully completed, signed license application to the Village at least 30 days before the intended issuance date or before an existing license expires. Operators whose primary residence is more than 50 miles from the Village either designate a local managing agent authorized to accept service of violations or provide a written statement consenting to service by regular mail. Whenever ownership details, contact information, managing agents, or alarm service providers change, operators file an updated application with the Administrator within seven days of that change.

§ 3-15-6 requires that rental properties in Inverness be operated under a valid Village-issued license, meaning landlords must have gone through a formal application process that documents who owns and manages the property. This public record of ownership and management contacts can be a useful starting point if a tenant needs to identify the proper party to notify about a violation or to accept legal service. Tenants who believe their landlord may not be in compliance with licensing requirements can inquire with the Village Administrator or consult a local tenant-rights organization to understand what options may be available.
