AN ACT CONCERNING NONRESIDENT LANDLORD REGISTRATION AND INCREASING PENALTIES FOR REPEAT BUILDING AND FIRE CODE VIOLATIONS.

SB 1303 requires nonresident landlords (owners not living at rental properties) and project-based housing providers in municipalities with over 25,000 residents to register with local tax assessors. They must provide their current residential address, identifying information, and the address of any key manager overseeing the property. This registration ensures proper service of maintenance orders and building code compliance notices. The bill also increases penalties for repeat violations of building and fire codes by landlords who fail to comply.
