Butler City Council has approved the first reading of a Rental Ordinance and Program within the city.
The proposal does not include any changes from when council discussed a revised version of the ordinance earlier this month.
Now that Council has voted to approve a first reading of the ordinance, they will vote again for final approval at their meeting next month.
If that takes place, they would then spend several months creating implementation language to focus on fire code violations in the first year before the ordinance would go into effect January 1, 2025.
