Not all Littleton street addresses are in the city limits. Check the Littleton Address Wizard and/or the Littleton City Limits map to make sure the property address is within Littleton's city boundaries. If it is not in the city limits, contact the local jurisdiction and follow their rental registration licensing process.
If you own multiple family residential structure(s) in the City of Littleton, which contain three or more residential units, you are required to provide the City with your name, address and telephone numbers. P.O. Boxes are not accepted as a valid address.
You are also required to appoint an agent who lives in the Denver-metropolitan area who may be contacted in the event that you are unavailable. This agent must have the authority to authorize emergency repairs relating to the rental property. Your agent shall have authority to give right of entry to a city inspector in your absence. Please provide his/her name, address and telephone numbers.
There are times when it becomes necessary for the City to quickly contact the owners of multiple family residences, particularly if there has been a fire or criminal activity. Therefore, rental registration is required by Littleton City Ordinance, Title 3 - Chapter 19 - Section 2 (3-19-2), which was adopted by City Council on December 15, 1998.
The City may institute any appropriate legal action or proceedings for injunctive or other relief to compel compliance with the requirements of this ordinance. These proceedings may include a summons to appear in Littleton Municipal Court.
