What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Current law limits the authority of a political subdivision to require inspections

of rental properties. Generally, under current law, such an inspection must be

initiated by a complaint or a special inspection warrant or be performed under a

program of inspections that meets a number of requirements specified in the

statutes. This bill eliminates these restrictions on a political subdivision's authority

to require inspections of rental properties.
