The Oelwein City Council formally adopted the Rental Inspection and Vacant Building programs October 22, 2018.  Landlords and vacant building owners are encouraged to review the Rental Inspection Policy, Rental Inspection Checklist Guide, Rental Fee Schedule and Rental Inspection Checklist.  All rental properties must be registered by March 1, 2019.

A reminder to all residential properties in Oelwein.  Black Hawk Waste garbage and recycling totes are address specific and stay with the property.  Totes are not to be moved to a new residence.
