Roseville, Minn., Code of Ordinances ch. 1201 § 1201.17
(a) All fees and fines shall be charged to and payable by the property owner.
(b) Residential rental properties in violation of this division may be subject to fines under the city fee schedule, in addition to any other fees or penalties per section 1201.22 or other applicable sections of this title.

Plain English

Roseville Code of Ordinances ch. 1201 § 1201.17 establishes that all fees and fines arising under this division are the financial responsibility of the property owner, not the tenant. Residential rental properties found to be in violation of the division's requirements may face fines set by the city's fee schedule, and those fines can stack on top of any additional fees or penalties imposed under § 1201.22 or other applicable sections of the title. In short, the rule creates a clear chain of financial liability that runs to the owner and allows multiple penalty mechanisms to apply simultaneously.

For Property Managers

Under § 1201.17, property owners bear direct financial responsibility for all fees and fines assessed against a rental property — this obligation cannot be passed to tenants. Compliant operators generally stay current with the city's fee schedule, promptly address any conditions that could constitute a violation, and remain aware that penalties under § 1201.22 or other sections of the title may be assessed in addition to base fines. Keeping thorough maintenance and compliance records is a practice commonly associated with operators who successfully avoid or contest fee assessments.

For Tenants

Section 1201.17 of the Roseville Code of Ordinances makes clear that any fines or fees triggered by a rental property's non-compliance are charged to the property owner, not to tenants. If a tenant believes their rental property is in violation of ch. 1201, they may consider documenting the conditions and reporting them to the appropriate Roseville city department, which can initiate the fee and fine process against the owner. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with Roseville's ordinances can help residents understand what violations may be covered and what general options are available to them.
