Draft ordinance allows inspections, municipal complaints, and court actions but leaves effective date and enforcement officers blank
Summary
The draft authorizes inspections, Issuing Municipal Officials to file municipal complaints, and civil actions in Superior Court, but does not name enforcement officers or set the ordinance's effective date; adoption blanks remain for signatures and recording.
The ordinance authorizes the Town to inspect short-term rentals to determine compliance with building, health and fire safety codes as a condition of registration. It also provides that Issuing Municipal Officials (left unnamed in the draft) shall be authorized to issue municipal complaints, recover civil penalties, and pursue enforcement before the Judicial Bureau or other court of competent jurisdiction.
The draft includes severability language and a placeholder for the effective date and signature lines for the Montgomery Selectboard and Town clerk, indicating the text is a final-draft template that still requires formal adoption and specification of enforcement officials and the effective date.
