Lead Paint in Philadelphia
Lead Paint Disclosure and Certification Law
Beginning December 21, 2012, the Lead Paint Disclosure and Certification Law requires Philadelphia landlords to ensure that property rented to families with children 6 years and younger is lead safe. The law states that upon turnover, before renting any house or apartment built before 1978 to new tenants with children aged 6 years and younger, the landlord must:
- certify the property is lead safe or lead free
- provide the tenant with a copy of a lead safe or lead free certificate, along with other required information
- provide the Department of Public Health with a copy of the lead safe or lead free certificate, signed by the tenant
In addition, landlords must indicate they are complying with the law when they apply for a new or renewed rental license. Click here for a landlord's guide to these new requirements. For more information about the new requirements and for links to the new law, sample lead certificates, and a list of certified lead inspectors - Click here for more info. |
