Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Jordan Ch. 124 § 124.13, the Code Official holds direct authority to inspect and enforce compliance with both the Residential Rental Licensing chapter and the city's Property Maintenance Code for rental properties. Operators who maintain their rental dwellings in accordance with those codes are generally positioned to respond cooperatively when the Code Official conducts inspections or issues notices. Keeping records of maintenance, licensing, and repairs can support a showing of compliance if the Code Official initiates an enforcement action.
