Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 156-48, property owners and managers should be aware that any complaint filed about their premises, any inspection carried out, and any violation noted will be formally logged by the Code Enforcement Officer. These records are publicly accessible, so a property's compliance history is not confidential. Operators who maintain well-documented, proactive maintenance practices may find that the public record reflects their responsiveness to housing standards.
