Regulatory Services violations dashboard

The Regulatory Services violations dashboard is an interactive, city-wide list of locations of Housing Maintenance Code and Fire Code violations.

How to use this information

You can use this information to understand the violation history of a specific property, owner and whether violations remain open. As a neighbor, you could offer support to those who may need assistance. As a resident, you can use the information to follow-up with the City on resolution. The tool also provides information on the most common violations and where in the city they take place, providing you with a big picture look at the city’s trends.

What else to to know about the information

The information updates each morning to provide the previous day’s work, so it’s always one day behind. Only violations issued by Regulatory Services are listed. Information on other violations issued by other City departments or follow-up actions for the violations we issue, such as citations, are not included.

Why Regulatory Services does this work

To keep Minneapolis safe, healthy and livable for all, Regulatory Services Inspectors enforce fire and housing violations of the Minneapolis Code of Ordinances and State Fire Code. This helps protect residents and improve the livability of Minneapolis.

Violations include grass, safety, fire alarms and more.

Active rental licenses

The active rental licenses dashboard is a list of all rental licenses in the city. It includes the rental property address, the property's tier score and contact information for the property.

How to use this information

With nearly 25,000 active rental licenses, Regulatory Services appreciates your help in educating property owners, property managers, residents, tenants and partners about the City’s rental licensing requirements.

You can use this tool to look-up a specific property to confirm whether it has an active rental license. You can also learn about specific neighborhoods that have a high concentration of rental licenses.

What else to know about this information

This information updates weekly, but it is common for a property’s rental license to change from active to inactive and back again. Because rental licenses are issued to people not the property, this can happen when a property is sold.

It is a property owner’s responsibility to close a rental license. If the property owner does not, a property may be listed as not actively being rented.

Why Regulatory Services does this work

To promote the health, safety and welfare of the public and work toward eliminating rental housing with poor conditions, the Minneapolis Code of Ordinances requires all rental property to be licensed. Regulatory Services oversees the licensing and inspection of rental housing to ensure living environments that contributes to healthy living.
