This article requires notice to tenants and to the city whenever title to property containing three or more rental housing units is conveyed or otherwise transferred. Under this article, the owner would be required to pay resident relocation benefits if they take certain actions during the three-month tenant notification period and the resident needs to move as a result of that action.
Shoreview Code of Ordinances ch. 30 § 30-122 establishes a framework designed to protect tenants from disruption when a rental property changes hands. The rule applies to properties with three or more rental units and requires that both tenants and the city receive formal notice whenever ownership is transferred. If an owner takes certain actions during a three-month notification window that force a tenant to relocate, the owner may be obligated to pay relocation benefits to the affected resident.

Under Shoreview Code of Ordinances ch. 30 § 30-122, property owners who sell or otherwise transfer title to a building with three or more rental units are generally expected to provide timely notice to both tenants and the city. Compliant operators are mindful of the three-month tenant notification period that follows a transfer, during which certain actions that cause a tenant to move can trigger a financial obligation to pay relocation benefits. Keeping thorough records of all notices sent and actions taken during this window is a practice commonly associated with compliance.
