Shoreview, Minn., Code of Ordinances ch. 30 § 30-94
Posted to prevent occupancy
Operative Text
Whenever any dwelling or dwelling unit has not obtained the required license or has been denied a license or has had its dwelling unit rental license suspended or revoked or is deemed unfit for human habitation, it shall be posted with a placard indicating violation of Shoreview City Ordinance by the city manager to prevent further occupancy. No person, other than the city manager, shall remove or tamper with any placard used for posting.
Under Shoreview Code of Ordinances ch. 30 § 30-94, when a dwelling or dwelling unit lacks the required rental license, has been denied or had its license suspended or revoked, or has been found unfit for human habitation, the city manager is authorized to post a placard on the property indicating a violation of Shoreview City Ordinance. Once posted, that placard may not be removed or tampered with by anyone other than the city manager. The posting serves as a public notice that further occupancy of the unit is prohibited.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 30-94, a compliant rental operator in Shoreview maintains a current, valid dwelling unit rental license and addresses any conditions that could lead to a finding of unfitness for human habitation before they escalate to a formal action. If a property receives a violation placard from the city manager, operators generally refrain from allowing new or continued occupancy and work through the proper licensing or appeals process to resolve the underlying issue. Removing or tampering with a posted placard is itself a violation of this ordinance, so operators take care to leave any such posting undisturbed until the city manager removes it.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Section 30-94 of the Shoreview Code of Ordinances provides that a unit posted with a violation placard is not legally authorized for occupancy, which may be relevant to tenants who are being asked to remain in or move into a unit that has had its license denied, suspended, or revoked. Tenants who believe their unit has been improperly posted, or who are facing displacement as a result of a posting, may wish to contact the City of Shoreview directly or reach out to a local tenant-rights organization to understand available options. Keeping records of any notices, communications, or conditions related to the posting can be useful when navigating the process outlined under this provision.
