Coon Rapids, Minn., Code of Ordinances ch. 12-900 § 12-912
Compliance with Minn. Stat. §211B.20
Operative Text
Licensee must comply with the requirements of Minn. Stat. §211B.20 and allow access to candidates who have filed for election to public office and seek admittance to the rental dwelling solely for the purpose of campaigning.
Coon Rapids Code of Ordinances ch. 12-900 § 12-912 requires rental property licensees to follow Minnesota Statute §211B.20, which grants political candidates who have officially filed for public office the right to access rental dwelling properties for the limited purpose of conducting campaign activities. This rule creates a legally recognized access right for candidates that overrides a landlord's general ability to restrict entry to their property. The provision applies specifically to licensed rental properties within Coon Rapids.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Coon Rapids Code of Ordinances ch. 12-900 § 12-912, compliant rental property licensees generally refrain from blocking or interfering with access by candidates who have filed for public office and are seeking entry solely to campaign. Operators familiar with this rule typically understand that their standard trespass or no-solicitation policies cannot be applied to bar qualifying candidates under Minnesota Statute §211B.20. Keeping records of the property's license status and understanding the scope of permissible candidate access are practices associated with compliance.

Coon Rapids Code of Ordinances ch. 12-900 § 12-912 means that tenants living in licensed rental dwellings may encounter candidates for public office who have a legal right to access the property for campaigning purposes under Minnesota Statute §211B.20. This access right is granted to the candidate, not the landlord, so tenants should be aware that a candidate's presence in common areas of the building may be lawfully permitted. Tenants who have questions about how this interacts with their own privacy rights or lease terms may wish to consult a tenant-rights organization or review the relevant statutes directly.
