(A) A rental permit shall be valid for three years from issuance. For rental permit renewals, the length of validity of a rental permit will be based upon results of the "rental condition inspection for occupancy checklist" at the time of renewal. If there are five or fewer infractions noted on the "rental condition inspection for occupancy checklist" and none of the infractions are a "life safety" issue, a rental permit extension of five years will be granted after any noted deficiencies are corrected. If more than five infractions are noted or any "life safety" issues noted, a rental permit extension of three years will be granted after any noted deficiencies are corrected.
(B) A conditional rental permit shall be valid for 30 days. An extension may be granted if the landlord/owner demonstrates a good faith effort to address the inspection violations and provides documentation and a projected schedule for the correction of noted deficiencies. This does not apply to any life safety issues and an extension may not exceed 90 days.
(C) Notwithstanding the foregoing, a dwelling or dwelling unit shall be required to be inspected if written complaints about the condition of the dwelling or dwelling unit have been filed with the Village Building Department by any tenant. The standard "rental condition inspection for occupancy checklist" developed by the Building Department shall form the basis for the inspection. The inspection fee shall be paid by the tenant.
