Clarification on When the Limited Liability Owner (LLO) Form Is Required
A request for closure on a project that was registered, reviewed and/or inspected prior to 9/1/2025 and the owning entity is a Limited Liability Company (LLC), Limited Liability Partnership (LLP), or Limited Partnership (LP), will not be required to provide a completed Limited Liability Ownership (LLO), IF one of the two requirements is met:
- a completed and correct Owner Agent Designation form (OAD) is already on file in TABS; OR
- one was not required because the signor was trackable (through email suffix or matching mailing address and phone number) to the owning entity listed
Projects that were registered, reviewed and/or inspected after 9/1/2025 and the owner is an LLC, LLP, or LP, will be required to provide the completed LLO form. Also, if owner information is edited, changed, or updated according to the CAD records and the owner is an LLC, LLP, or LP then an LLO form is required.
