The purpose of this Rental Property Registration and Licensing Ordinance ("RPRO") is to preserve and promote the public health, safety, and general welfare of the residents, and the public generally, within the body of land (the "Reservoir Project Area") owned by the District, and to provide an efficient system to ensure that residential rental property is properly maintained. The District recognizes that the most efficient system to provide for inspections of residential rental property is the adoption and implementation of this regulation creating a program requiring the registration and licensing of rental properties.
