Under Lynwood Ch. 54 Human Relations § 54-268, a license issued under this chapter is personal to the holder and cannot be passed along to any other individual, organization, sponsor, or agency. The license exists solely for the entity or person to whom it was originally granted. Any attempt to transfer or transmit the license to another party has no legal effect under this provision.

For Property Managers

Property owners and managers operating under a license governed by Lynwood Ch. 54 Human Relations § 54-268 should be aware that the license is non-transferable. When ownership, management structure, or sponsorship of a property or operation changes hands, a new license application is generally required rather than an assignment of the existing one. Compliant operators typically initiate the appropriate licensing process with the relevant Lynwood authority whenever a change in the responsible party occurs.

For Tenants

Lynwood Ch. 54 Human Relations § 54-268 establishes that a license cannot simply be handed off to a new owner, organization, or sponsor. If a property or operation changes hands, tenants may want to verify that the new party holds a valid license in their own name rather than relying on a transferred one. Tenant-rights organizations or the relevant Lynwood municipal office can be consulted to understand what steps are available if a licensing irregularity is identified.
