Under § 9-8B-4, operators seeking to obtain or renew a rental license in Andover must complete the city's official application form and supply all required contact information for the owner, manager, and any designated agent. Compliant operators also attach a blank copy of their standard lease, ensuring it includes the Crime Free/Drug Free Addendum and, where the property predates 1978, all federally mandated lead informational materials. Keeping these documents current and on file before each renewal cycle is a standard practice for maintaining licensure in good standing.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Section 9-8B-4 requires that landlords in Andover submit lease documents as part of the rental licensing process, which means the lease a tenant signs should align with what was filed with the city, including a Crime Free/Drug Free Addendum and, in older buildings, lead disclosure materials required by federal law. Tenants who believe their landlord is operating without a proper license, or whose lease lacks required addenda, may contact the City of Andover to inquire about a property's licensing status. Local tenant-rights organizations can also help tenants understand how the licensing requirements under § 9-8B-4 may relate to their rental situation.
