concern and shall be prohibited pursuant to subsection B of this

section.

B. No municipality shall enact or attempt to enforce through

fees, civil fines or criminal penalties any ordinance, rule or

regulation to require the registration of real property. Any

ordinance, rule or regulation contrary to the provisions of this

section, whether enacted prior to or after August 22, 2014, is

declared null and void and unenforceable against every owner,

purchaser, assignee, lessee, mortgagee or beneficiary of any

interest in the real property.

C. Nothing in this section shall prohibit a municipality from

creating a list of the property owners or the designees of property

owners of residential, commercial or leased real property to ensure

the public safety and welfare of its citizens.

Additionally, for the purpose of addressing public nuisances,

dilapidated properties or other unlawful conduct in accordance with

their general police powers, municipal governments may require:

1. Contact information of persons or entities responsible for

emergency contracts and property maintenance for property outlined

in this subsection; or

requiring the owner of property that is the subject of any abatement

process provided in this title to provide the name, physical address

and telephone number of an individual to receive and respond to

communications concerning the property subject to the abatement

process. No future action taken by the municipality shall be

rendered ineffective due to the failure of the property owner to

provide the information pursuant to this subsection. The

municipality shall not assess any additional charge when requiring

the information.

F. Information obtained by the municipal government under this

section shall be confidential and not subject to disclosure under
