Plain English

Bloomington, Minn., Code of Ordinances § 15.207 establishes the scope of Division C, which governs situations where city code requires a license before a permit can be issued for installation, alteration, or repair work on facilities within residential property. In other words, whenever a licensing requirement is a prerequisite to obtaining a work permit in a residential setting, Division C's rules apply. The provision does not itself create new licensing requirements but instead defines when the broader set of rules in Division C is triggered.

For Property Managers

Under § 15.207, property owners and managers in Bloomington should be aware that any installation, alteration, or repair work on residential property facilities may require obtaining the appropriate license before a work permit is granted. Compliant operators generally verify whether a license is required under the city code before scheduling or commencing any such work. Keeping documentation of licenses and permits in order helps demonstrate compliance with Division C's applicability requirements.

For Tenants

Section § 15.207 of Bloomington's Code of Ordinances means that work done on facilities in your residential property is subject to Division C's rules whenever city code requires a license as a condition of issuing a work permit. Tenants who believe work was performed without the required licensing or permitting may have grounds to raise that as a concern with the City of Bloomington or a local tenant-rights organization. Understanding when Division C applies can be a useful starting point when reviewing whether repairs or alterations in a rental unit were carried out in accordance with local requirements.
