McPeak�� City Attorney J RE: Residential Rental Housing Ordinance Enclosed please find the above referenced ordinance. We have changed the 3PR Task Force's draft in the following ways: 1. Put it in the Charter required form; 2 . Reworded it only to eliminate vagueness problems; and 3 . Required that the Ramsey County tax filing be accomplished as already required by other laws. I have reviewed the Minnesota Government Data Practices Act in light of the concern that Section 35. 01 would identify recipients of public housing. It is my opinion that Section 35. 01 does not do that. It may be that the Public Housing Agency will have to make reasonable accommodations to comply with the ordinance. JAM:jr Enc.
