Le Sueur, Minn., Mun. Code Ch. 115 (2026) § 115.07
LICENSE EXPIRATION
Operative Text
(A) Each license issued pursuant to this section shall have a term of one to three years and shall expire quarterly, based on date of issuance, on March 31st, June 30th, September 30th, or December 31st respectively. Renewal of licenses will not occur unless the property has been inspected and approved by the Building Official within 90 days preceding the expiration date of the license. (1) Rental license terms are at the discretion of the City Administrator, Building Official, or designee. (B) Payment of license fees shall be due and payable on or before the date of expiration of the preceding license, if any. Any license fee established by the city shall be due and payable before the expiration date and said license shall be conditioned upon timely payment of any license fee. Reissuance of a rental license for any property with a cancelled license shall be handled as if the property were a new license. Such issuance will require the property to comply with all codes in effect at the time of the new license application. (Ord. 549, passed 10-12-2015; Ord. 578, passed 11-26-2018)
Le Sueur Ch. 115 Rental Regulations § 115.07 establishes that rental licenses run for one to three years and expire on one of four quarterly dates — March 31, June 30, September 30, or December 31 — depending on when the license was issued. Renewal requires both a passing inspection by the Building Official within 90 days before expiration and timely payment of the applicable fee. If a license is cancelled rather than renewed, the property is treated as a brand-new applicant and must meet all current codes at the time of reapplication.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators subject to Le Sueur Ch. 115 Rental Regulations § 115.07 generally track their license's quarterly expiration date and schedule a Building Official inspection within the 90-day window before that date. Compliant operators also ensure license fees are paid before the expiration date, since late payment can result in cancellation. A cancelled license triggers a full new-application process, including compliance with all codes currently in effect, which can be more demanding than a standard renewal.

Le Sueur Ch. 115 Rental Regulations § 115.07 means that a rental property is only legally licensed when its owner has maintained a current, inspected, and fee-paid license. Tenants who have reason to believe their landlord's license has lapsed or been cancelled may contact the Le Sueur Building Official to inquire about the property's license status. Tenant-rights organizations can help residents understand what options may be available when a rental property is operating without a valid license.
