Rosemount, Minn., Mun. Code Ch. 95 (2026) § 9-8-13
PENALTY
Operative Text
A. Penalty: Any person violating any provision of this chapter shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and may also be subject to the administrative citation procedures pursuant to Title 1, Chapter 10 of this Code, as it may be amended from time to time. (Ord. 2026-02, 4-7-2026)
Rosemount Ch. 95 Rental Licensing § 9-8-13 establishes that violations of the rental licensing chapter carry two potential tracks of accountability: criminal prosecution as a misdemeanor and a separate administrative citation process governed by Title 1, Chapter 10 of the Rosemount City Code. Both tracks can apply to the same violation, meaning a single infraction could result in both a criminal charge and an administrative penalty. The provision applies to 'any person,' which broadly encompasses landlords, property managers, tenants, or any other party who violates the chapter.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers operating rental units in Rosemount should be aware that § 9-8-13 exposes anyone who violates Ch. 95 to potential misdemeanor charges as well as administrative citations under Title 1, Chapter 10. Compliant operators generally maintain current rental licenses, adhere to all chapter requirements, and keep records demonstrating ongoing compliance. Because the penalty provision references administrative citation procedures that may be amended over time, operators commonly monitor updates to Title 1, Chapter 10 to stay current with applicable enforcement mechanisms.
