Falcon Heights, Minn., City Code ch. 105 art. IV (2026) § 105-100
Applicable laws
Operative Text
Sec. 105-100 - Applicable laws Licenses shall be subject to all of the ordinances of the city and the State of Minnesota relating to rental dwellings/multifamily rental dwellings; and this article shall not be construed or interpreted to supersede or limit any other such applicable ordinance or law. (Ord. No. 13-06, § 1, 12-11-2013; Ord. No. 19-06, § 20, 9-11-2019)
Section 105-100 of Falcon Heights City Code establishes that rental housing licenses operate within the full framework of both city ordinances and Minnesota state law governing rental and multifamily rental dwellings. The article containing the licensing rules is explicitly not intended to override, narrow, or replace any other applicable local or state legal requirement. In other words, compliance with the licensing article alone does not constitute full legal compliance if other laws also apply.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 105-100, a rental license issued by Falcon Heights does not shield a property owner from obligations imposed by other city ordinances or Minnesota state statutes covering rental housing. Compliant operators generally treat the licensing requirements as one layer of a broader regulatory framework, ensuring their properties also meet building codes, habitability standards, and any other applicable local or state rules. Reviewing all relevant Falcon Heights ordinances and Minnesota rental housing statutes alongside § 105-100 is a practice commonly associated with thorough compliance management.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Section 105-100 makes clear that tenants in Falcon Heights-licensed rental properties retain all protections afforded by other city ordinances and Minnesota state law, not just those found in the licensing article itself. This means a landlord's possession of a rental license does not limit a tenant's ability to invoke rights established elsewhere in local or state law. Tenants who believe additional ordinances or statutes apply to their situation may find it useful to contact a local tenant-rights organization or the relevant city or state agency for information about the full scope of applicable protections.
