Program Overview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Rental dwelling units have been proven to have a greater impact on police and fire service per capita, for example, single-family rental dwellings as a group have an average of 78% more calls for service annually than owner-occupied homes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In order to offset the higher cost of providing services to rental properties, the city has opted to participate in the Good Landlord Program and offers a discounted fee upon completion of the required class and adherence to the obligations.  This enables the city to partner with landlords to reduce calls for service while at the same time making our community safer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rental Housing Association<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
