Omaha, Neb., Code of Ordinances ch. 13, art. IV (2026) § 13-353
If the director is unable to make final disposition of a complaint filed under this article within one year from the date the director receives the complaint, the director shall notify the complainant and respondent of the reasons.

Plain English

Under Omaha, Neb., Code of Ordinances ch. 13, art. IV § 13-353, if the director cannot fully resolve a complaint within one year of receiving it, both the person who filed the complaint and the person it was filed against must be notified of the reasons for the delay. This rule establishes a transparency requirement around complaint timelines, ensuring neither party is left uninformed when a case extends beyond the one-year mark. It does not set a hard deadline for resolution, but it does require formal communication when that threshold is crossed.

For Property Managers

Property owners or managers named as respondents in a complaint filed under Omaha, Neb., Code of Ordinances ch. 13, art. IV § 13-353 can expect to receive written notice from the director if the complaint remains unresolved after one year. Operators generally keep records of any such notices and track the status of open complaints to stay informed about where a matter stands. Being aware of this provision helps landlords understand that a prolonged process does not mean a complaint has been dropped — formal communication is required when timelines extend.

General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.

For Tenants

Under Omaha, Neb., Code of Ordinances ch. 13, art. IV § 13-353, tenants who have filed a complaint are entitled to receive notice from the director explaining why a final resolution has not been reached within one year. If a year passes without resolution and no such notice is received, that absence of communication may itself be worth raising with the relevant office or a local tenant-rights organization. Tenants can use knowledge of this provision to stay engaged with the status of their complaint and to ask questions if the process appears stalled.
