Joint Implementation
Operative Text
The Chapter herein may be enforced by any other governmental agency by joint agreement where joint enforcement is practicable. (Rev. 04-17-00)
Section 4 of Troy, MI Code of Ordinances Ch. 82-A establishes that the rental and dwelling inspection and enforcement rules in this chapter are not limited to a single enforcing body. Under this provision, any other governmental agency may partner with the City of Troy to carry out enforcement through a joint agreement, provided that such joint enforcement is practicable. This means that compliance obligations under Ch. 82-A could be monitored or enforced by more than one agency acting in coordination.

Property owners and managers subject to Ch. 82-A § 4 should be aware that enforcement of Troy's rental and dwelling inspection requirements may come from multiple governmental agencies acting under a joint agreement, not solely from the primary city authority. Compliant operators generally maintain their properties in accordance with all applicable standards regardless of which agency conducts an inspection or issues a notice. Keeping thorough records of maintenance, inspections, and communications is a practice commonly associated with operators who are prepared for multi-agency oversight.
