Falcon Heights, Minn., City Code ch. 105 art. IV (2026) § 105-91
License renewal
Operative Text
Sec. 105-91 - License renewal Notwithstanding the application signature requirements, renewals of the license as required annually by this Code may be made by filling out the required renewal form provided by the city to the owner, operator or agent of a rental dwelling/multifamily rental dwelling and mailing said form together with the required registration fee to the compliance official. Failure to file the completed application with the city at least 60 days prior to the expiration of the license is a violation of this article. (Ord. No. 13-06, § 1, 12-11-2013; Ord. No. 19-06, § 13, 9-11-2019)
Section 105-91 of the Falcon Heights City Code establishes a streamlined renewal process for rental housing licenses, which must be renewed annually. Renewals are completed by submitting a city-provided renewal form along with the required registration fee to the compliance official, and the standard signature requirements that apply to new applications do not apply to renewals. Critically, the completed renewal application must reach the city at least 60 days before the current license expires; missing that deadline constitutes a violation of Article IV.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 105-91, compliant rental property owners and operators in Falcon Heights typically track their license expiration date and submit the city-provided renewal form—along with the required registration fee—well in advance of the 60-day pre-expiration deadline. Because mailing is the designated submission method, operators generally account for postal transit time to ensure the form arrives on time rather than simply being postmarked by the deadline. Keeping a calendar reminder tied to the license expiration date is a common practice for staying ahead of the requirement.

Section 105-91 requires that rental properties in Falcon Heights be covered by a currently valid, annually renewed license, and a landlord's failure to file the renewal at least 60 days before expiration is a code violation. Tenants who have reason to believe their landlord's rental license has lapsed or was not properly renewed may contact the Falcon Heights compliance office to inquire about a property's license status. Tenant-rights organizations in the Twin Cities area can also help residents understand what options may be available when a landlord is found to be operating in violation of Article IV.
