Marshall's Residential Rental Code § 18-145 establishes that the City is responsible for keeping all records, files, and documents related to rental unit registration and inspections. These materials are treated as public records, meaning they can be accessed by members of the public to the extent that state law and city ordinance permit or require such access. The provision places the recordkeeping duty squarely on the City rather than on individual landlords or tenants.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 18-145 of Marshall's Residential Rental Code, the City—not individual property owners—bears the responsibility for maintaining registration and inspection records. Compliant operators generally ensure that their registration submissions and inspection-related paperwork are accurately completed and submitted so that the City's files reflect current and correct information. Keeping copies of any documentation submitted to the City can help operators verify what is on file.
