For Property Managers

Under South St. Paul Code of Ordinances ch. 106, art. VII § 106-238, compliant rental property operators post the license certificate in a conspicuous spot at or near each building's entrance—one certificate per building. Where a rental office or accessible common area exists, operators generally display the certificate there to satisfy both the visibility and accessibility requirements. Keeping the certificate current and properly posted is a routine part of maintaining a licensed rental operation in South St. Paul.

For Tenants

South St. Paul Code of Ordinances ch. 106, art. VII § 106-238 gives tenants the ability to verify their building's rental license by looking for the posted certificate near the entrance or in a common area such as a rental office. If a certificate is not visibly displayed as the provision describes, that may indicate a compliance issue worth noting. Tenants who cannot locate a posted certificate can contact the City of South St. Paul's licensing or code enforcement office, or reach out to a local tenant-rights organization, to learn more about the building's licensing status.
