(b) The city building official or their designee will be responsible for administration of this section. The authority to take any action authorized under this section may be delegated to the city building official's authorized designee or designees.
(c) Upon determination by the city building official or their designee that a registered rental unit was used in a disorderly manner, as described in subsection (a) of this section, the city building official or their designee, will give notice to the license holder and the tenants of the rental unit affected, of the violation and direct the rental license holder to take steps to prevent further violations.
(d) A strike letter will provide a tenant(s) the opportunity to provide additional information that could prevent or rescind any strike, regardless if it is a first, second, or third strike. If second instance of disorderly use of the same registered rental unit occurs within 12 months of an incident for which a notice in subsection (c) of this section was given, the city building official, or their designee, will notify the license holder and the renters of the affected unit of the violation and may require the registration holder to submit a written report of the actions taken, and actions proposed to be taken, by the registration holder to prevent further disorderly use of the premises. This report will be submitted to the city building official, or their authorized designee, within ten business days of receipt of the notice of disorderly use of the premises, and will detail all actions taken by the registration holder in response to all notices of disorderly use of the premises within the preceding 12 months.
(e) Upon the occurrence of a second instance of disorderly use resulting in the issuance of a citation or the filing of formal criminal charges as described in subparagraph (a) above, within 12 months, the registration holder or their manager also may be required to attend and complete the crime free education course described in section 10.46(h) of this article. The course will be completed prior to the end of the then current license cycle, and proof of attendance and verification of course completion will be submitted with the annual license renewal application as described in section 10.47(a)(10). Multiple unit ownership notwithstanding, no individual registration holder or manager will be required to attend and complete more than one course in any one calendar year (January 1 to December 31).
(f) If a third instance of disorderly use of the rental unit registered premises occurs within 12 months after any two previous instances of disorderly use for which notices were given to the registration holder and the cited tenant(s) of the affected unit, pursuant to this section, the rental dwelling license or rental certificate of occupancy for the rental unit may be denied, revoked, suspended or not renewed if the actions proposed to be undertaken by licensee pursuant to subsection (d) of this section are inadequate and/or are not being diligently pursued. An action to deny, revoke, suspend or not renew a license or rental certificate of occupancy under this section may be initiated by the city building official, or their designee, pursuant to the procedures set out in section 10-60 of this article.
(g) If a tenant that is the subject of the instance of disorderly use described in subsection (a) ceases to rent the unit subject of the same (in a multi-unit complex), then the number of instances against the specific unit may be reset. However, if the tenant relocates to another unit within the same licensed multi-unit rental property, the instance(s) will follow the tenant to the new unit.
(h) Though an incident of disorderly use of a rental unit does not result in the issuance of a citation, the incident nonetheless will result in a letter being sent by the city to the license holder, advising of the incident and of police being called to the rental unit. The incident must have resulted in the police being called to the rental unit and in a police report being prepared.
(i) For purposes of this chapter, "disorderly use of the rental unit registered premises" will mean disorderly use in the particular rental unit by the tenants, occupants or guests or conduct by the tenants which constitutes disorderly use anywhere on the property of the apartment building or home or mobile home park in which the rental unit is situated.
