Property owners and managers operating within Mount Carmel's corporate limits are subject to the full requirements of Ch. 8½ Discrimination § 8½-12 and the broader anti-discrimination article. Compliant operators generally confirm whether their properties fall within those city boundaries, since properties outside the limits are not covered by this local article. Maintaining awareness of which properties fall under municipal jurisdiction is a standard part of managing a portfolio that spans city lines.
