The provision establishes a strict procedural timeline to ensure the respondent is promptly made aware of the allegations against them.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 14-49, a property owner or manager named in a housing complaint can expect to receive official notice from the administrator within 15 calendar days of the complaint being filed or initiated. Compliant operators generally keep their contact information current with the commission so that certified mail or in-person service reaches them without delay. Being aware of this notification window helps operators understand when to anticipate formal correspondence and respond accordingly.
