For Property Managers

Rochester, Minn., Code of Ordinances § 7 § 7-3-22 establishes that a code official will formally serve a notice of violation when a property is found to be out of compliance. Operators who maintain properties in good repair and conduct regular inspections are generally better positioned to address issues before a formal notice is issued. When a notice is received, compliant operators typically document receipt, review the cited deficiencies carefully, and take steps to understand the scope of required corrections.
