Park Rapids, Minn., Mun. Code Ch. 152 (2026) § 152.074
ORDER OF THE BOARD
Operative Text
After such hearing, the Board of Adjustment shall sustain, modify, or withdraw the notice depending upon its finding as to whether the provisions of this chapter and any rules and regulations adopted pursuant hereto have been complied with. If the Board of Adjustment sustains or modifies such notice, it shall be deemed to be an order. Any notice served pursuant to this chapter shall automatically become an order if a written petition for a hearing is not filed with the city within 10 days after such notice is served. The decision of the Board of Adjustment shall be final. (Am. Ord. 473, passed 12-12-2006)
Under Park Rapids Ch. 152 § 152.074, after a hearing the Board of Adjustment reviews any compliance notice issued under the manufactured home park and rental housing chapter and may uphold, modify, or withdraw it based on whether the chapter's requirements were met. If the Board sustains or modifies the notice, that notice becomes a binding order. Importantly, if a property owner or tenant does not file a written petition for a hearing within 10 days of receiving a notice, that notice automatically converts into an order without any hearing taking place. The Board's decision is final.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 152.074, operators of manufactured home parks or rental housing who receive a compliance notice have a narrow 10-day window to file a written petition for a hearing with the city; missing that deadline causes the notice to automatically become a binding order. Compliant operators generally track all notices carefully, respond in writing within the required timeframe, and maintain documentation of any corrective actions taken under Ch. 152. If a hearing does occur, the Board of Adjustment will evaluate whether the chapter's provisions and any related rules were followed before issuing its final determination.

Section 152.074 of Park Rapids Ch. 152 establishes that notices issued under the manufactured home park and rental housing chapter carry real legal weight — they become enforceable orders either after a Board of Adjustment hearing or automatically if no hearing is requested within 10 days. Tenants who believe a notice affects their housing situation may want to be aware of this 10-day petition window and the finality of the Board's decision. Tenant-rights organizations or legal aid services familiar with local Park Rapids regulations can help residents understand how this process may relate to their circumstances.
