Housing and Neighborhood Services works to attract and support housing investment in the City and expand access to safe, decent, affordable housing through regulating rental housing, enforcing housing & zoning code compliance, and administering programs to support the community’s affordable housing initiatives. 

A rental license is issued by a local governmental agency that certifies that a residential dwelling is safe and maintained to a certain standard.
