Homeowner and Landlord Responsibilities

Homeowners and landlords are responsible for maintaining anything inside their home. The City’s operational departments support the infrastructure outside of residents’ homes like their roads, the right-of-way, and sewers. Learn about what items are homeowner and landlord responsibilities.
