Phoenix — Ch. 22 Art. VI Property Maintenance § 22-419
Amendments
Operative Text
Registration fees and penalties outlined in this chapter may be modified by resolution, administrative order, or an amendment to this article, passed and adopted by the board of trustees.
Phoenix City Code Chapter 22, Article VI, Section 22-419 establishes that the registration fees and penalties set out in the property maintenance chapter are not permanently fixed — they can be changed through a resolution, administrative order, or a formal amendment to the article, as long as the board of trustees passes and adopts the change. This provision essentially creates a built-in mechanism for updating the financial structure of the chapter without requiring a full legislative overhaul each time. The rule governs how changes to fees and penalties are authorized, rather than setting any specific dollar amounts itself.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 22-419, the registration fees and penalties that apply to rental property operations in Phoenix can be adjusted at any time through official board action, meaning the amounts a compliant operator budgets for may shift over time. Property owners and managers generally stay current with resolutions and administrative orders issued by the board of trustees to ensure they are aware of any updated fee schedules or penalty structures. Monitoring official city communications and the Phoenix municipal code for changes tied to Chapter 22, Article VI is a common practice among operators who want to remain in compliance.
