MAINTENANCE STANDARDS
Operative Text
Every rental dwelling shall be maintained in accordance with the minimum standards set forth in state law and the City Code, in addition to any other permits issued by the city or by the state. (Ord. 2017-07, passed 1-2-2018)
Jordan Chapter 124, Section 124.11 establishes that all residential rental properties must be kept up to at least the minimum maintenance standards defined by state law and the City Code, as well as any additional conditions attached to city or state permits. The rule applies broadly to every rental dwelling in the jurisdiction, without exception. It does not set its own independent maintenance checklist but instead incorporates existing legal standards by reference.

Under Jordan Ch. 124 § 124.11, operators of rental dwellings are generally expected to stay current with both state-level housing standards and the City Code's maintenance requirements, while also honoring any conditions tied to permits issued by the city or state. Compliant operators typically conduct regular property inspections, address maintenance deficiencies promptly, and keep records of repairs and permit compliance. Reviewing applicable state statutes and City Code provisions alongside any active permits helps ensure a property meets the layered standards this section incorporates.

Jordan Ch. 124 § 124.11 establishes that tenants in rental dwellings have a right to housing that meets state law minimums, City Code standards, and any permit conditions — all at once. If a rental unit appears to fall short of these standards, general enforcement paths can include filing a complaint with the city's code enforcement or licensing authority, raising the violation in relevant legal proceedings, or reaching out to a local tenant-rights organization for guidance. Documenting conditions with photographs and written communications can support any inquiry or complaint process.
