CITY OF HOUGHTON - RENTAL UNIT INSPECTIONS

1.      Students who believe there is a violation of the State of Michigan Building codes in their rental unit, may write the City of Houghton and request a building inspection.  If the Building Inspector finds any violations the landlord is given notice and 30 days to fix the problem.  There is no cost for the inspection and you will receive a copy of the inspection report.

2.      Students who would like a rental unit inspected before they sign a lease, need to get written permission from the  landlord and submit it to the city.  The City Building inspector will provide you with a inspection report.   There is no charge for this report.

 

 

CITY OF HOUGHTON  - PARKING 

1.        Before you sign a lease ask the landlord how many parking spaces are provided and if the parking lot is approved by the City of Houghton.  The City parking ordinance prohibits parking in certain areas of the property and designated parking lots must be paved or gravel.  Parking on the lawn is prohibited.

 

 

NOTICE:         If you have questions re: rental units or parking within the City of Houghton call 482-1700.
