Title

AN ACT CONCERNING ADMINISTRATIVE HEARINGS FOR THE PURPOSE OF MODIFYING THE PROVISIONS for administrative hearings by authorizing the adjudication of matters involving violations of the Building Code, Housing Code and violations of the laws concerning rental licenses and by authorizing the Department of Permitting, Inspections and Enforcement to abate violations that have been duly adjudicated through the administrative hearing process and to assess the costs of abatement to responsible parties.

Background

The purpose of this legislation is to provide for more effective, efficient, and expedient adjudication of violations involving short-term rentals, single- and multi-family rental licenses, and property standard and building code violations. These process improvements will allow for participants in the adjudication process to reach a speedier resolution while allowing the Department of Permitting, Inspections and Enforcement to more promptly address outstanding violations.
