For Property Managers

Property owners and managers operating in Minnesota should be aware that Minn. R. 1300 § 1300.0050 identifies the full set of code chapters that may apply to construction, renovation, or systems work on their properties. Compliant operators typically determine which specific chapters—such as 1309 for residential construction, 1341 for accessibility, or 4714 for plumbing—govern the work being performed before beginning any project. Familiarity with this chapter index helps ensure that all applicable standards are identified and addressed during permitting and inspection processes.

For Tenants

Minn. R. 1300 § 1300.0050 outlines the chapters of the Minnesota State Building Code that set minimum standards for the buildings where tenants live, covering areas such as residential construction (Chapter 1309), accessibility (Chapter 1341), electrical systems (Chapter 1315), and plumbing (Chapter 4714). Tenants who believe their housing does not meet these code standards may have grounds to raise code compliance as a concern with local building officials or a tenant-rights organization. Understanding which chapter of the code applies to a specific condition—such as an elevator, fire protection system, or energy system—can help tenants identify the appropriate avenue for addressing a potential violation.
