 Hello, my name is Audrey Lewis and I am the Senior Representative for Code Enforcement. Owners in the city limits renting out properties will have to fill out a rental application. You can find the rental application on the city's website ColumbiaPD.net. You can also reach out to me in person or by phone and I am able to send you one through mail or by email. With this application you would have to send a fee. The fee is $25 per unit. Once I receive the application with the fee I will go forward with sending you your permit. This permit will be good for 12 months. After the 12 months you will have to renew annual. Here is one of our rental applications. Section one is always the owner or management company's information. Section two is the local agent's information. Section three is very important. You always have to fill out the affidavit. If that affidavit is not completed the application will not be processed. The affidavit means that everything is up to code at that property. And then section four you will go ahead and fill out whatever units you have. Once doing that your application is complete. Be a good neighbor. Do your part.
