Cal. Civ. Code § 36-1-20-1.2
"Rental registration or inspection program"
Operative Text
Sec. 1.2. As used in this chapter, "rental registration or inspection program" means a program authorizing the registration or inspection of only rental housing. The term does not include a general housing registration or inspection program or a registration or inspection program that applies only to rooming houses and hotels.
Indiana Code § 36-1-20-1.2 establishes a specific definition for the term 'rental registration or inspection program' as used in that chapter. Under this definition, such a program is one that targets only rental housing for registration or inspection requirements. Importantly, the definition excludes general housing programs that cover all property types, as well as programs limited solely to rooming houses and hotels.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Ind. Code § 36-1-20-1.2, operators of rental housing should be aware that local registration or inspection programs specifically targeting rental properties fall within this defined category, which shapes how the broader chapter's rules apply to them. Compliant operators generally stay informed about whether their municipality has adopted a qualifying rental registration or inspection program, since that determination affects which regulatory obligations may apply to their properties. Programs covering all housing types or only rooming houses and hotels are excluded from this definition, so the type of program in place matters when assessing applicability.

Ind. Code § 36-1-20-1.2 defines what counts as a 'rental registration or inspection program' under Indiana law, which can affect whether local registration or inspection requirements apply to a tenant's rental home. Tenants living in properties subject to a qualifying program may have access to certain protections or oversight mechanisms tied to that program's requirements. Tenants who want to understand whether their rental unit falls under such a program can consult their local government office or a tenant-rights organization for general information about programs in their area.
