Alongside that certificate, a copy of the bylaw itself must also be posted. The rule ensures that both the registration status and the governing rules are accessible to anyone present in the building.

Operators of rental properties subject to Harwich, Mass., Code of Bylaws CH. 230 § 230-3 generally ensure that a valid certificate of registration is posted in a conspicuous spot within the registered building or unit area. A compliant operator also posts a copy of the bylaw alongside that certificate, so both documents are visible and accessible. Keeping these postings current and undamaged is a routine part of maintaining compliance with the registration requirement.
