An initial inspection is bundled into the application fee, one follow-up reinspection to confirm compliance is provided at no charge, but additional reinspections triggered by a valid complaint or a prior unsatisfactory inspection may carry an extra fee set by the City Council.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 9-8B-12, compliant rental operators in Andover submit their license or renewal application along with the applicable fee as established by the City Council at the time of filing. The cost of the initial inspection is folded into that application fee, so no separate payment is required for that visit. Operators who receive a notice of violation or fail an inspection should be aware that any reinspection beyond the first no-charge follow-up may result in an additional fee, making timely correction of deficiencies a practical priority.
