Emily Ch. 150 Rental Properties § 150.18 establishes that every rental unit in the jurisdiction is subject to an annual license fee.

The fee is collected as part of the annual renewal process, meaning it is billed alongside the renewal statement rather than as a separate standalone charge.

Emily Ch. 150 Rental Properties § 150.18 requires landlords—not tenants—to pay an annual license fee for each rental unit, which is assessed through the renewal process. Tenants may find it useful to know whether their unit's license is current, as noncompliance by a landlord could be relevant in certain housing disputes or code-enforcement contexts. Tenant-rights organizations or the city offices where the Fee Schedule Ordinance is maintained can be resources for understanding how this licensing requirement intersects with tenant protections in Emily.
