New Brighton, Minn., Code of Ordinances ch. 18, art. III § 18-318
Enforcement authority
Operative Text
The city manager shall be responsible for enforcement and administration of this article. Authority to take any action authorized by this article may be delegated by the city manager to an authorized designee.
Under New Brighton Code of Ordinances ch. 18, art. III § 18-318, the city manager holds primary responsibility for enforcing and administering the rental regulations set out in Article III. The city manager is also permitted to delegate that enforcement authority to a designated representative, meaning day-to-day enforcement actions may be carried out by someone other than the city manager directly. This provision establishes the chain of administrative authority rather than imposing specific obligations on landlords or tenants.

New Brighton Code of Ordinances ch. 18, art. III § 18-318 establishes that tenants who believe a violation of Article III has occurred may direct concerns to the city manager's office, which holds primary enforcement responsibility. Because the city manager may delegate authority, an authorized designee could also be the appropriate point of contact for complaints or inquiries. Tenants can explore options such as filing a complaint with the city, raising a violation as a defense in relevant proceedings, or consulting a local tenant-rights organization for guidance on navigating the process.
