Funding for enforcement would never be a surplus. There couldn't be enough fees or fines to cover the administrative costs. Especially not since, if your plan works as desired, it will drive all rentals to close leaving an administrative staff looking to be paid but with nothing to administer.
If/when issues occurred, deciding not to rent would be closing the barn door after the horses got out. In our litigious society someone would come looking for money from whoever it was that created the situation that led to the issue. I'm surprised Orlando and NYC aren't concerned about this, just as I am surprised there apparently have not been any issues to report on.
