The Center for Disease Control of the United States Public Health Service is pleased to have shared with the American Public Health Association the task of updating the “APHA/CDC Recommended Housing Maintenance and Occupancy Ordinance.” We feel that the present revision fulfills the need for periodic review and clarification of the model ordinance. It is hoped, thereby, that this document will continue to be useful to State and local housing and health authorities in promoting high standards for health protection. Revision of 1971 version of APHA-PHS recommended housing maintenance and occupancy ordinance: PHS Pub. no. 1935.
