Marshall, Minn., Mun. Code art. 18-VIII (2026) § 18-151
Interim Housing
Operative Text
As a condition of receiving a rental unit registration, the registration holder agrees that in the event that the registration is denied, suspended, revoked, or not renewed due to the action or inaction of the registration holder or registration holder’s agent, representative, employee or lessee, all tenants or sub-tenants of the residential rental unit shall be provided, at the registration holder’s expense, suitable interim housing approved by the City after notice to the registration holder from the City and the expiration of a reasonable time agreed upon by the City for the registration holder to cure. The registration holder shall provide such interim housing until the registration for the unit is restored or until the end of the lease or agreement term, whichever occurs first. Failure of the registration holder to provide and/or pay for such interim housing shall be grounds for suspension of the rental unit registration held by the registration holder. HISTORY Adopted by Ord. 24-003 on 2/13/2024
Under Marshall Art. 18-VIII Residential Rental Code § 18-151, when a rental unit registration is denied, suspended, revoked, or not renewed because of something the registration holder (or their agent, employee, or lessee) did or failed to do, the registration holder must pay for suitable interim housing for all affected tenants or sub-tenants. This obligation kicks in after the City provides notice and a reasonable cure period has passed without resolution. The duty to provide interim housing continues until the registration is restored or the lease term ends, whichever comes first.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 18-151, compliant registration holders maintain their rental unit registrations in good standing and promptly address any deficiencies the City identifies before a cure period expires. If a registration is lost due to the holder's own actions or inactions, operators are generally expected to arrange and fully fund City-approved interim housing for every tenant and sub-tenant affected. Failing to provide or pay for that interim housing is itself grounds for suspension of any remaining rental unit registrations the holder may hold.

Section § 18-151 establishes that tenants and sub-tenants have a right to suitable interim housing—paid for by the registration holder—if their unit loses its registration through the landlord's fault. If a landlord fails to arrange or fund that housing after the City's notice and cure period have run, tenants may have grounds to report the non-compliance to the City of Marshall, which can treat the failure as a basis for further registration suspension. Tenants facing this situation may also wish to contact a local tenant-rights organization to understand the full range of options available under this provision.
