Section 146-36 of the Stamford Code of Ordinances establishes that all inspections and reinspections of residential properties—including dwellings, rooming houses, and hotels—must follow the procedures set out in §§ 146-5, 146-6, and 146-7. The rule creates a unified inspection framework that applies across different types of housing units. It does not create new inspection standards on its own but instead directs readers to the specific procedural sections that govern how inspections are conducted.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 146-36 of the Stamford Code of Ordinances, property owners and managers operating dwellings, rooming houses, or hotels should be familiar with the inspection and reinspection procedures detailed in §§ 146-5, 146-6, and 146-7, as those sections govern how compliance checks are carried out. Compliant operators generally maintain their properties in a condition that can withstand inspection at any time and cooperate with inspectors acting under the authority of those referenced sections. Keeping records of prior inspections and any corrective actions taken can help demonstrate ongoing compliance.

Section 146-36 of the Stamford Code of Ordinances confirms that residential properties—including the dwelling, rooming house, or hotel unit where a tenant lives—are subject to inspection and reinspection under the standards laid out in §§ 146-5, 146-6, and 146-7. Tenants who believe their unit has not been properly inspected or that inspection findings have been ignored may consider contacting the relevant Stamford municipal authority responsible for housing code enforcement. Local tenant-rights organizations can also help residents understand what the inspection process entails and what options may be available if a property is found to be out of compliance.
