Housing Code Adopted. The Housing Code for Olmsted County shall be hereby adopted
Operative Text
1010.01 Housing Code Adopted. The Housing Code for Olmsted County shall be hereby adopted and made a part of this Code as if set out here in full.
Section 1010.01 of the Stewartville City Code formally incorporates the Olmsted County Housing Code into Stewartville's municipal code by reference, giving it the same legal force as if its full text were reprinted within the city's own ordinances. This means that all standards, requirements, and procedures contained in the Olmsted County Housing Code apply within Stewartville. The provision itself does not set new substantive rules but instead activates an entire body of county-level housing regulations at the local level.
Plain English — not legal advice.

Section 1010.01 means that tenants in Stewartville can look to the Olmsted County Housing Code for the substantive housing standards that apply to their rental units, since that code carries full municipal authority under city law. If conditions in a rental unit appear to fall short of those standards, tenants generally have options such as contacting the relevant local or county housing authority, raising a code violation in a legal proceeding, or reaching out to a tenant-rights organization for guidance. Understanding which specific Olmsted County Housing Code provisions apply to a given situation is a useful starting point when exploring those paths.
