FISCAL ANALYSIS
ASSUMPTION
§67.221 – Residential Property Registration
Officials from the Department of Revenue, Department of Commerce and Insurance, the
Department of Economic DevelopmentDepartment of Natural Resources, the Missouri
Department of AgricultureMissouri Department of Transportation, the Office of the
Secretary of StateState Tax Commission each assume the proposal will have no fiscal
impact on their respective organizations. Oversight does not have any information to the
contrary. Therefore, Oversight will reflect a zero impact in the fiscal note for these agencies.
Officials from Kansas City assume a negative fiscal impact of $275,000 annually. This
estimated amount is all business license fees as prescribed in Chapter 40.
Oversight notes the Kansas City Health Department (KCHD) provided public testimony on
2/25/25 to the Government Efficiency Committee. In their testimony, Oversight notes a $21
annual fee is required of landlords through their rental registration process to sustain a program
called Healthy Homes. This program was incepted in 2018 and has conducted over 10,000
inspections and has cited more than 28,000 violations for health hazards.
Oversight assumes those local political subdivisions (LPS) who require an owner of a residential
property to license, register or obtain a certification to rent could lose income if a fee is charged
by the LPS. Oversight is unaware of how many LPS currently have this ordinance and/or rule in
place and how much the LPS is charging.
Oversight does not have information to the contrary with Kansas City’s response and assumes
that other LPS could have similar fees. Therefore, for fiscal note purposes, Oversight will reflect
an unknown loss of revenues to LPS that could exceed $275,000.
Oversight only reflects the responses received from state agencies and political subdivisions;
however, other cities and counties were requested to respond to this proposed legislation but did
not. A listing of political subdivisions included in the Missouri Legislative Information System
(MOLIS) database is available upon request.

FISCAL DESCRIPTION
This bill prohibits a political subdivision from requiring the owner of residential property that is
offered for rent to license, register, or obtain certification for the property at any time or for any
reason. This does not apply to commercial property or property rented for less then 30 days.
This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not
require additional capital improvements or rental space. L.R. No. 2666H.02C
