Shoreview, Minn., Code of Ordinances ch. 30 § 30-93
Reinspection fee
Operative Text
There is no fee for an initial inspection to determine the existence of a housing maintenance code violation, nor any fee for the first reinspection to determine compliance with an order to correct a code violation. A fee shall be charged for all subsequent reinspections when the violation is not corrected by the time specified in the written notice. The fee shall be established by resolution from time to time of the city council.
Under Shoreview Code of Ordinances ch. 30 § 30-93, the city conducts an initial housing maintenance code inspection and one follow-up reinspection at no charge. If a cited violation remains uncorrected by the deadline stated in the written notice, every reinspection after that first free one carries a fee. The fee amount is not fixed in the ordinance itself but is set periodically by the city council through a separate resolution.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Shoreview Code of Ordinances ch. 30 § 30-93 gives property owners two cost-free opportunities — the initial inspection and one reinspection — to address a cited housing maintenance code violation. Operators who correct violations before the deadline stated in their written notice avoid reinspection fees entirely. Landlords who track correction deadlines carefully and document completed repairs are generally positioned to avoid the escalating fees that apply to each subsequent reinspection.

Shoreview Code of Ordinances ch. 30 § 30-93 establishes that the city will inspect a property and conduct one follow-up reinspection without charging the property owner, which can support timely code enforcement. If a landlord's violation remains unaddressed past the written deadline, the city may charge reinspection fees for each additional visit, creating a financial incentive for correction. Tenants who believe a housing maintenance code violation exists can contact the city to initiate an inspection, and local tenant-rights organizations can help explain what options may be available under this provision.
