Baltimore City Property Registration for Flips?

[Francis I.]

Hello,

I recently completed a house renovation flip in Baltimore city. However, I received a citation from the city about non registration of my property which came as a shock to me. I was under the assumption that only rentals needed to be registered and that flips were exempt from this rule?

The fine is $500 and I find it rather on the high side. What are my options? I am thinking of requesting a hearing. What is the best way to fight this citation or reduce the citation fee? Please help!
