Under CH. 205 § 205-3, operators of rental properties subject to Middleborough's rent bylaw should check with the Rent Board to determine whether a registration fee has been established and, if so, what the current amount is. Compliant operators typically pay any required registration fee at the time of registration and keep records of that payment. Staying current with any fee schedule the Board publishes helps ensure registration remains in good standing.

CH. 205 § 205-3 gives the Middleborough Rent Board authority to charge landlords a fee for registering rental units, which is a landlord-side obligation rather than a tenant cost.
