Rental Property Emergency Contact Registration
On April 19, 2011, the Madison Common Council voted to amend Madison General Ordinance 27.04(2)(k). This Ordinance requires every owner of a rental dwelling to keep on record with the Building Inspection Division contact information of two (2) or more persons located in Dane County who, by virtue of his or her ownership, employment, or delegation, can exercise control and care over the property, and provide access to the property. There is a $5.00 fee for each parcel that is recorded.
For more information:
- Letter from George Hank, Building Inspection Division Director

- Legislative File ID #15867
Registration can be completed online through the City of Madison Licenses & Permits portal.

-
For multiple properties choose Rental Property Emergency Contact - Multiple Bundle
- All rental properties must be added as single application amendments to the bundle
