Section 9. Every operator shall keep or cause to be kept, in permanent form, a register in which shall be recorded the true name or name in ordinary use and last known address of every occupant in the self-service storage facility, together with a true and accurate record of the unit assigned to such person and of time frame when such unit is assigned under the rental agreement. The entry of the names of the occupants of said unit shall be made by said occupant, except that when five or more members of a business, fraternal, or social group or other group having a common interest are engaging units, they may designate one person to make said entry on their behalf and prior to occupancy.
