Under Byron Ch. 114 Crime Free Rental Housing § 114.07, when a review of a registration certificate application reveals that a dwelling, apartment, or rooming unit fails to meet the requirements of the municipal code—including applicable zoning ordinances—the City Administrator is required to return the application to the applicant along with a written explanation of why it was rejected. This provision establishes a formal notice process so that applicants are informed of the specific deficiencies that led to the denial. The rule does not grant automatic approval; compliance with all relevant code provisions is a prerequisite for obtaining a registration certificate.
