Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Minneapolis § 244.2100, property owners and managers are generally expected to install and maintain carbon monoxide alarms in the locations and manner specified by Minnesota Statutes 299F.50–299F.51. Compliant operators typically verify that alarms meet the required standards before a unit is occupied and address any alarm deficiencies promptly. Keeping records of alarm installation and maintenance is a common practice among operators seeking to demonstrate compliance.

Minneapolis § 244.2100 incorporates state carbon monoxide alarm standards into local law, meaning tenants in the city have the same protections those statutes provide. If a rental unit appears to lack required alarms, tenants can report the condition to Minneapolis code enforcement or raise the issue with a local tenant-rights organization for guidance on available options. Reviewing Minnesota Statutes 299F.50–299F.51 can help tenants understand what installations are required in their type of dwelling.
