Rosemount, Minn., Mun. Code Ch. 95 (2026) § 9-8-12
APPEALS
Operative Text
The following appeal process applies when a license has been denied, suspended, or revoked. This process does not apply to an appeal for an administrative citation issued pursuant to Title 1, Chapter 10 of this Code. A. Hearing: Following receipt of notice of a license denial, suspension, or revocation, an owner or manager may request a hearing before the city council. An owner or manager must request a hearing in writing and file the request with the city clerk within ten (10) days of the date of the notice of the license denial, suspension or revocation. Following receipt of a written request for a hearing, the city will schedule a hearing before a committee consisting of the Director or the Director’s designees. B. Findings: After the committee conducts the hearing, it will report its findings and make a recommendation to the city council. If the committee finds that the license denial, suspension, or revocation is proper, the council may affirm the license denial, suspension, or revocation. The city council may also conclude that the license denial, suspension, or revocation or the fine is not warranted and change the license status. C. Default: If the owner or manager does not request a hearing within the ten (10) day period, or does not appear at the hearing, then the license denial, suspension, or revocation will take immediate effect by default. In that case, the Director need not mail another notice of the license denial, suspension, or revocation or fine to the owner or manager. (Ord. 2026-02, 4-7-2026)
Rosemount Ch. 95 Rental Licensing § 9-8-12 establishes a formal appeal process for rental license denials, suspensions, and revocations — but not for administrative citation appeals, which follow a separate track. A property owner or manager who receives such a notice has ten days to submit a written hearing request to the city clerk; if that deadline is missed or the party fails to appear, the adverse license action takes effect immediately by default. A committee reviews the matter and reports findings to the city council, which holds final authority to affirm or reverse the license action.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Rosemount Ch. 95 Rental Licensing § 9-8-12, operators who receive a notice of license denial, suspension, or revocation generally act promptly to preserve their appeal rights, since the ten-day window for filing a written request with the city clerk is strictly enforced. Compliant operators keep records of the notice date, submit a timely written hearing request, and appear at any scheduled hearing before the Director's committee. Missing the deadline or failing to appear causes the license action to take immediate effect without any further notice from the city.

Rosemount Ch. 95 Rental Licensing § 9-8-12 governs how landlords may contest a rental license denial, suspension, or revocation, which directly affects the legal status of a rental property. If a landlord's license is revoked or suspended and no timely appeal is filed — or the landlord defaults by not appearing — the adverse action takes effect immediately, which may have implications for the tenancy. Tenants who believe their rental unit's license status is at issue can contact the City of Rosemount directly, consult a local tenant-rights organization, or review the city's rental licensing records to understand the current status of their unit's license.
