Copy of landlord-tenant guide requirement at issuance or renewal of rental license
This bill requires Minnesota cities, towns, and home rule charters to provide a copy of the attorney general's landlord-tenant guide when issuing or renewing a rental license. Landlords must receive either a physical copy or a digital link to the guide at the time of license issuance or renewal. The requirement applies directly to local governments that issue rental licenses and affects both landlords (who must provide the guide) and tenants (who receive the guide). The bill mandates this as a standard step during license processing, using the existing attorney general's guide as the resource. It does not change tenant or landlord rights but ensures access to the guide at a key administrative point.
