Minneapolis, Minn., Code of Ordinances § 7 § 142.50
The city clerk may accept amendments for filing from persons who have domestic partnership application on file except amendments which would change the identity of the partners. (91-Or-015, § 1, 1-25-91)

Plain English

Minneapolis Code of Ordinances § 7 § 142.50 governs amendments to domestic partnership registrations on file with the city. Under this provision, the city clerk is authorized to accept updated filings from registered domestic partners, but only for changes that do not alter who the partners are. In other words, the core identity of the partnership — the two individuals named in it — cannot be modified through an amendment; a new application would be required instead.

For Property Managers

Although § 7 § 142.50 primarily concerns domestic partnership registration rather than landlord-tenant obligations directly, property owners who recognize domestic partnership status for tenancy purposes should be aware that a registered partnership on file with the city clerk may be amended. Compliant operators generally keep records of any updated domestic partnership documentation tenants provide, understanding that amendments reflecting changes in partner identity are not permitted under this provision. Staying current with the city clerk's accepted filings helps ensure that tenancy records accurately reflect the registered partnership status of residents.

For Tenants

Under Minneapolis Code § 7 § 142.50, if you have a domestic partnership application on file with the city clerk, you have the ability to submit amendments to update that registration — as long as the amendment does not seek to change who the partners are. If you believe an amendment was improperly rejected or your registration status affects your housing situation, tenant-rights organizations in Minneapolis can help you understand your options. You may also contact the city clerk's office directly to clarify what types of amendments are accepted under this provision.
