Once the City Council has revoked the rental regstration certificate, occupancy of the property is not allowed
until (1) an inspection by Neighborhood Housing and Property Improvement (NHPn has been conducted, (2)
the Director of NHPI has determined the property to be in compliance, and (3) the certificate is renewed. Note:
Rentin� a property without a certificate is a misdemeanor.
Please call me as soon as possible to arran�e a meeting to discuss how to correct this situation before the City
Council acts to revoke this certificate. If al1 issues are addressed, I wi11 recommend that the revocation be
withdrawn from consideration by the City Council.
