OWNER/OCCUPANT RESPONSIBILITIES

OWNER: Generally responsible for maintaining a building in a good state of
repair including all common areas.

OCCUPANT: Generally is responsible for maintaining a dwelling unit so as to be
reasonably clean and in a sanitary condition free of infestation.

Once an initial inspection is performed on a property, the owner has 30 days to complete repairs. At the end of this time, if repairs have not been completed legal action may be initiated to gain compliance.
