~ During Monday's City Council Legislative Session, the Council voted 5-2 to approve Ordinance C36576, which aims to improve rental housing regulations in Spokane. The ordinance, proposed by the Brown Administration and Office of Code Enforcement, will modify Rental Registry Requirements and limit the power of landlords who do not have a business license or participate in the rental registry program.
Under this new ordinance, landlords will no longer be able to increase rent or evict tenants without a valid business license. This change is expected to provide more stability for renters and protect them from unfair practices. Additionally, the ordinance will streamline the low-income unit waiver process and establish guidelines for cause-based and periodic inspections of residential rental housing by the Office of Code Enforcement.

Council Member Paul Dillon, representing District 2, expressed his gratitude towards the Brown Administration and Office of Code Enforcement for bringing this policy forward. He believes that this ordinance is necessary for public safety and maintaining a certain standard for rental properties in Spokane. He also emphasized the importance of providing dignity to residents through these regulations.
The ordinance was initially passed in February 2023 as C36330, which mandated a business license and registration for all residential rental properties. It will officially go into effect on November 15, 2024. Residential landlords can register their properties at www.spokanepermits.org.
