Rosemount Ch. 95 Rental Licensing § 9-8-11 establishes the grounds on which the city may deny, suspend, or revoke a rental license. Denial can occur for reasons such as prior license revocations, incomplete or false application information, outstanding debts to the city, or a property that failed inspection. Suspension or revocation can follow violations of applicable codes, unlicensed leasing, or a landlord's failure to act when a felony is committed on the property by a tenant or someone affiliated with a tenant.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 9-8-11, compliant rental operators in Rosemount generally keep their application information accurate and complete, resolve any outstanding fines, penalties, or property taxes owed to the city before seeking a license or renewal, and maintain their properties in conformance with all applicable codes. Operators also take documented steps to address situations where a felony is committed on the licensed property by a tenant or affiliated person, as inaction on that front is an explicit ground for revocation. Staying current on inspections and promptly correcting any cited deficiencies helps operators avoid the suspension and revocation triggers listed in this section.
