Roseville Code of Ordinances ch. 1201 § 1201.15 makes it unlawful to occupy, allow occupancy of, or rent out a one-to-four-unit residential rental property in the city unless a registration application has been properly submitted to the city — and that registration must remain active (not suspended or revoked). The registration form collects specific information, including owner and agent contact details, property address, unit type, bedroom and bathroom counts, and a certification that occupancy limits comply with local standards. Owners whose primary address falls outside a defined seven-county metro area must additionally identify a locally based agent authorized to arrange repairs or code-compliance services.

For Property Managers

Operators of one-to-four-unit residential rentals in Roseville generally maintain a current, valid registration under § 1201.15 before any unit is occupied or re-let. A compliant operator keeps the city-issued registration form up to date with accurate owner and agent contact information, property details, and a signed occupancy certification — and promptly updates that information if circumstances change, such as a change in ownership or designated agent. Owners residing outside Anoka, Carver, Dakota, Hennepin, Ramsey, Scott, or Washington counties also ensure they have identified a local agent who lives or works within those counties and is authorized to order repairs or address code violations.

For Tenants

Under Roseville Code of Ordinances ch. 1201 § 1201.15, tenants in one-to-four-unit rentals have an interest in knowing whether their property is properly registered with the city, since operating without a valid registration is unlawful. If a tenant has reason to believe a property is unregistered or that registration has been suspended or revoked, they may contact the city directly to inquire about registration status or file a complaint through local code-enforcement channels. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with Roseville's rental ordinances can help explain how registration status may be relevant to a tenant's broader rights and available remedies.
