(a) All owners must register foreclosed properties with the City’s Code Enforcement Officer within seven (7) days of the end of the foreclosure process and when a winning bidder had been determined. All registrations must state the individual owner’s or agent’s phone number and mailing address. This registration must also certify that the property was inspected and identify whether the property is vacant at the time of filing. If the property is vacant, the owner and/or registrant must designate and retain a local individual or local property management company responsible for the security and maintenance of the property. This designation must state such individual or company’s name, phone number, and local mailing address. The mailing address may not be a P.O. Box.
(b) Once the property is no longer vacant or is sold, the owner must provide proof of sale or written notice and proof of occupancy to the Code Enforcement Officer.
