Once the City Councii has revoked the rental registration certificate, occupancy of the property is not allowed
until (1) an inspection byNeighborhood Housing and Property Improvement (NHPI) has been conducted, (2) the
Director ofNHPI has determined the property to be in compliance, and (3) the certificate is renewed. Note:
Renting a properiy without a certificate is a misdemeanor.
Please call me as soon as possble to arrange a meeting to discuss how to correct this situation before the City
Council acts to revoke this certificate. If all issues aze addressed, I will recommend that the revocation be
withdrawn from consideration by the City Council.
Sincere
