For Property Managers

Under Enfield Code of Ordinances ch. 2, art. III, div. 5 § 2-153, landlords who are subject to a Fair Rent Commission proceeding can expect that any investigation into a complaint will be conducted by formally appointed investigators whose findings are disclosed through official, transparent channels. Compliant operators generally familiarize themselves with the commission's procedural structure so they understand how investigative reports will be introduced at a hearing. Knowing that no private communications between investigators and hearing officers are permitted helps property owners anticipate a structured, on-the-record process.

III, div. 5 § 2-153 provides tenants with a procedural protection: investigators handling rent complaints are prohibited from privately sharing their findings with hearing officers, helping to ensure that the process remains transparent and on the record.
