Hopkins, Minn., Code of Ordinances ch. 20, art. III § 20-152
Amended applications
Operative Text
If any changes occur in any information required on the license application, the owner must submit an amended license application to the city within 30 days of the change. If any rental dwelling units are added to a current license, the additional rental dwelling units must be licensed by amendment of the current license and must be accompanied by the fee required for the additional units.
Hopkins Code of Ordinances ch. 20, art. III § 20-152 requires rental property owners to keep their license applications current by reporting changes within 30 days. When new rental dwelling units are added to an already-licensed property, those units cannot simply be covered by the existing license — they must be formally added through an amendment, and the applicable fees for the additional units must be paid at that time. The rule ensures that the city's licensing records accurately reflect the actual scope of each rental operation.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Hopkins Code of Ordinances ch. 20, art. III § 20-152, compliant rental property operators generally track any changes to the information originally submitted on their license application and file an amended application with the city within 30 days of each change. When additional rental dwelling units are brought into service under an existing license, operators submit an amendment specifically covering those units and include the required fees for each unit added. Maintaining up-to-date license records helps avoid potential compliance issues related to unlicensed or improperly licensed units.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Hopkins Code of Ordinances ch. 20, art. III § 20-152 establishes that rental units added to a property must be licensed through a formal amendment — meaning tenants in newly added units have a basis to verify whether their specific unit is properly covered under the landlord's current license. Tenants who have questions about whether their unit is licensed can contact the City of Hopkins directly to check the status of the property's rental license. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with Hopkins municipal requirements can also help residents understand what options may be available if a unit appears to be operating without proper licensure.
