Eden Prairie, Minn., City Code ch. 13 § 13.99
VIOLATION A MISDEMEANOR
Operative Text
Every person violates a section, subdivision, paragraph, or provision of this chapter when he or she performs an act thereby prohibited or declared unlawful, or fails to act when such failure is prohibited or declared unlawful, and upon conviction thereof, shall be punished as for a misdemeanor except as otherwise stated in specific provisions hereof.
Eden Prairie City Code ch. 13 § 13.99 establishes that any person who commits a prohibited act—or fails to act when action is required—under Chapter 13 of the Eden Prairie City Code has committed a violation. Upon conviction, the default punishment is that applicable to a misdemeanor under Minnesota law, unless a specific provision within the chapter sets a different penalty. This is a general enforcement backstop that applies across the entire chapter rather than to one specific conduct.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Eden Prairie City Code ch. 13 § 13.99, property owners and managers who fail to comply with any requirement of Chapter 13—whether by doing something prohibited or by omitting a required action—face potential misdemeanor-level criminal liability upon conviction. Compliant operators generally maintain familiarity with all obligations set out in Chapter 13 and keep documentation showing that required actions were taken on time. Because this provision functions as a chapter-wide enforcement clause, a violation of any individual section can trigger its penalties.

Eden Prairie City Code ch. 13 § 13.99 means that the misdemeanor penalty framework applies to anyone who violates Chapter 13, which can include landlords who fail to meet their obligations under that chapter. Tenants who believe a landlord has violated a specific provision of Chapter 13 may report the conduct to the appropriate Eden Prairie municipal authority or consult a tenant-rights organization to understand available enforcement paths. Because § 13.99 is a general penalty provision, the specific underlying section that was violated will shape what remedies or complaints may be available.
