Summary

Pamela Crowder, representing Caribou Home Rentals, told the board the company's late rental registrations were due to office disruptions; the board recommended waiving penalties for 29 properties with no prior appeals but warned future compliance is expected.

Pamela Crowder appeared and explained why Caribou Home Rentals filed late rental registrations for 29 properties. Crowder said staff disruptions and an office error led to the late submission and that the company had completed the forms earlier but missed the deadline. "I actually had them completed. I thought I had the month of April to turn them in," Crowder told the board.

A committee member noted that none of the properties had prior appeals and recommended waiving penalties for all 29 properties this one time; the Chair concurred. Board members cautioned that repeat lateness would not be treated leniently in the future. Crowder said she would ensure on-time filings going forward.
