Operative Text
If the registered owner is not the person or entity authorized to manage the building and collect rents on behalf of the owner, or if the registered owner is not the local agent, then in addition to posting the rental dwelling license as required by § 119.025 of this chapter, the owner in whom is vested either a legal or beneficial interest in the premises shall post a typewritten or printed notification, resistant to weather and other elements, in a conspicuous place at or near the front door, containing the following information: (A) The name, street address, city and zip code of the person or entity authorized to manage the building and collect rent; (B) The name, street address, city and zip code of the local agent authorized to accept service of process and give receipt for notice and demands; and (C) The information in divisions (A) and (B) above, plus a telephone number for 24-hour maintenance shall be made available to the tenant in written form at the commencement of the tenancy.

Mounds View Ch. 119 § 119.003 requires property owners who do not personally manage their rental building or serve as the local agent to publicly post specific contact information at or near the building's front entrance. This posted notice must be weather-resistant and include the name and full address of both the property manager and the local agent authorized to accept legal notices. Additionally, at the start of any tenancy, tenants must receive this same information in writing, along with a 24-hour maintenance telephone number.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Mounds View Ch. 119 § 119.003, compliant rental property owners who use a third-party manager or designate a separate local agent generally ensure that a durable, weather-resistant notice is posted conspicuously at or near the front door of the building. This notice includes the full name, street address, city, and zip code of both the authorized property manager and the local agent who can accept service of process. At lease signing or move-in, operators also provide each incoming tenant with a written document containing all of that same contact information plus a telephone number available around the clock for maintenance needs.

Mounds View Ch. 119 § 119.003 gives tenants the right to know who manages their building and who is designated to receive legal notices on the owner's behalf. At the beginning of a tenancy, a written disclosure containing the manager's contact information, the local agent's contact information, and a 24-hour maintenance number is required to be provided to you. If this information was not posted or provided as required, tenants may wish to contact the City of Mounds View or consult a tenant-rights organization to understand what options may be available under this provision.
