New Brighton, Minn., Code of Ordinances ch. 18, art. III § 18-319
Rules, policies, and procedures
Operative Text
By resolution the city council may adopt, from time to time, rules, policies, and procedures for the implementation of this chapter. Violation of any such rule, policy, or procedure by a property owner shall be considered a violation of this article.
New Brighton Code of Ordinances ch. 18, art. III § 18-319 establishes that the city council has the authority to adopt supplemental rules, policies, and procedures—by resolution—to guide how the broader rental housing chapter is carried out. These supplemental measures can be updated or added over time as the council sees fit. Critically, any violation of such council-adopted rules by a property owner is treated as a violation of the article itself, carrying the same legal weight as a violation of the underlying ordinance.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under New Brighton Code of Ordinances ch. 18, art. III § 18-319, compliant property owners stay informed of any resolutions passed by the city council that introduce or update rules, policies, or procedures related to rental housing. Because violations of those council-adopted measures are treated as violations of the article itself, operators generally review new resolutions as they are adopted and adjust their practices accordingly. Monitoring city council meeting agendas and official publications is a common way to track changes to these supplemental requirements.

New Brighton Code of Ordinances ch. 18, art. III § 18-319 means that tenants may have recourse not only when a landlord violates the core ordinance, but also when a landlord violates any supplemental rules, policies, or procedures the city council has adopted by resolution. Tenants who believe a property owner has failed to follow these requirements can explore options such as filing a complaint with the appropriate New Brighton city department or raising the violation through available local enforcement channels. Consulting a local tenant-rights organization can help clarify which council-adopted rules are currently in effect and what remedies may be available.
