Analysis
As a result of the changes adopted in the 2003 city budget, this ordinance consolidates the city's certificate of code of compliance and certificate for exterior code compliance programs. Currently, the certificate of code compliance program (s. 200-52) requires anyone purchasing a one or 2-family property within 6 designated reinvestment areas, to have the exterior and interior of the property inspected in order to secure a certificate regardless of ownership. The certificate of exterior code compliance program requires (s. 200-55) that any non-owner occupant purchasing a one or 2-family property for rental property outside the designated reinvestment areas, have the exterior of the property inspected in order to secure a certificate.
Under this ordinance, anyone who purchases a one or 2-family dwelling as non-owner occupied rental property in the city of Milwaukee is required to apply for and obtain a certificate of code compliance (exterior). All one and 2-family buildings in the 6 designated code compliance areas are required to obtain the certificate of code compliance (exterior) without regard to whether the building is owner-occupied or a rental unit.
