The Rental Housing Inspection and Licensing Program exists to preserve public safety.

This program establishes minimum standards for basic equipment and facilities for rental property:

• light, ventilation, and heating;
• safety from fire;
• the use and amount of space for human occupancy;
• for safe and sanitary maintenance of dwellings.

Tenants, landlords, and the city all play a role in the implementation of this program.

All rental property in Boulder is required to maintain a valid rental license in compliance with the Housing Code. The Housing Code, Boulder Revised Code 1981 Title 10-2, establishes minimum standards for the use and safe occupancy of dwellings to protect, preserve and promote the physical and mental health of its residents.

Obtaining a rental license is the responsibility of the property owner. Unlicensed rental property will result in legal action with a fine of up to $2,000 per violation and/or up to 90 days in jail.
