Summary

City staff proposed requiring registration for all non‑primary residences, including vacant properties, to reduce staff time spent investigating properties; council agreed to place a draft ordinance on the next agenda with Zupp‑Smith assisting the review.

City staff proposed a change to Denison’s rental‑property ordinance that would require registration of any property that is not a primary residence, including vacant properties. Garcia told the council staff is spending excessive time investigating properties and said the proposed rule would centralize records and make enforcement more efficient.

Council members agreed to advance the concept to the next meeting agenda for formal consideration. Zupp‑Smith volunteered to help review the draft ordinance with staff. The report made clear the proposal is at the drafting stage; no final language was adopted and no vote was taken at the planning session.
