  1. Pet rules help maintain a decent, safe, and sanitary living environment for the tenants in a property through the development of guidelines on the registration and inoculation of pets, the sanitary disposal of waste, and the restraint of pets while in common areas. In addition, they help protect and preserve the physical condition of the property and the owner’s financial interest in it.

  2. Tenants or tenant representatives may submit written comments on the proposed pet rules to the project owner by the date specified in the notice of proposed rules. In addition, the owner may schedule one or more meetings with tenants during the comment period to discuss the proposed rules. Tenants and tenant representatives may make oral comments on the proposed rules at these meetings. (See Exhibit 6-5 for more information on how to develop pet rules.)

  3. By developing pet rules, owners ensure that existing and prospective pet owners know their responsibilities to their pets and neighbors as well as the property. Pet rules also make existing and potential tenants aware of their rights while living among pet owners.
