Dilworth Ch. 152 Rental Units § 152.25 establishes a phased effective date for the city's rental unit regulations. The main body of Chapter 152 did not take effect until September 1, 1995, but the registration application and issuance requirements became operative immediately upon passage. Any rental unit that was not properly registered before September 1, 1995 was considered in violation of the chapter, and the first registration period ran from the date of issuance through December 31, 1996.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 152.25, compliant operators in Dilworth ensured their rental units were registered before the chapter's September 1, 1995 effective date, since failure to do so constituted a violation. Property owners and managers generally kept records of their initial registration, which covered the period from issuance through December 31, 1996, as proof of timely compliance. Operators who acquired or began renting units around that transitional period would have needed to confirm that registration was completed before the main chapter went into force.

Tenants who have questions about whether their unit was properly registered under this provision may be able to raise a registration violation as a relevant issue in certain housing proceedings.
