Residential housing tenant and landlord provisions modifications

This bill modifies Minnesota's landlord-tenant laws to clarify definitions, expand tenant protections, and update eviction procedures. It directly affects landlords, tenants, and courts by establishing new rules for how rental agreements are handled and how disputes are resolved. Key changes include adding legal definitions for tenant associations and organizers, clarifying what constitutes a lease violation, and allowing courts to automatically remove eviction records from public view in specific situations, such as when a tenant wins the case or the eviction was based on marijuana possession. The legislation also prohibits landlords from charging extra fees for service or support animals and requires clearer disclosure of pet policies in leases.
