How do I register for a key

Talk to any officer and they can get you set up. The officer will make a copy of your photo ID (driver's license, passport, etc.) and put in a request with the landlord for a copy of the key. You will need to pay $? to cover the cost of key duplication. The process generally takes ? days. Also, be aware that there is a $100 fee if you lose the key.
