An ordinance to require licenses for all rental homes in the village, similar to an existing requirement for multifamily homes there, advanced with a council vote of 4 to 1 on Tuesday, according to the Palm Beach Post. The council is looking to change the fees associated with the ordinance and would replace the current $75 license fee and $25 inspection fee with a $50 fee for a rental property inspection.

The program is designed to make sure single-family homes comply with village codes. The ordinance will come back to the council for final approval next month. [Palm Beach Post] – Jennifer White Karp
