St. Cloud Code of Ordinances § 445:70 requires that every licensed rental property display its current city-issued license in a visible, public area of the building—such as a corridor, hallway, or front entrance. The posted license must also include a standardized fair-housing notice directing anyone who believes they have experienced housing discrimination to contact the Minnesota Department of Human Rights, along with that office's contact information. This rule is designed to keep tenants informed of both the property's licensed status and their fair-housing rights.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under St. Cloud Code of Ordinances § 445:70, compliant rental property operators keep their current city-issued license posted in a conspicuous location accessible to residents and visitors, such as a common hallway or front entrance. The license itself must contain the required fair-housing language referencing the Minnesota Department of Human Rights, printed in a noticeable typeface, followed by the department's contact information. Operators generally verify that the posted license is current and undamaged each time a renewal is issued, and that the required language remains legible throughout the license period.

St. Cloud Code of Ordinances § 445:70 gives tenants the right to see a current, city-issued rental license posted in a common area of their building, such as a hallway or front entrance. That posted license must also display a notice informing residents that they can contact the Minnesota Department of Human Rights if they believe they have been treated unfairly regarding housing opportunities. If the license is missing, outdated, or lacks the required fair-housing language, tenants may consider reporting the issue to the City of St. Cloud's licensing or code enforcement office, or reaching out to a local tenant-rights organization for guidance on available options.
