EMERGENCY SERVICES
Reporting Property Maintenance Issues at Rental Properties
If there is a property maintenance issue in your rental home, you must report it in writing to the property owner or property manager. If you have already told them about the issue verbally, write it down, keep a copy for your records, and give them a reasonable amount of time to fix it.
Reporting a Concern to the City
If the property owner or manager does not fix the problem in a reasonable time, you can report your concern to the City of West St. Paul and an inspector will be in contact. If an inspection is done and the property does not meet required maintenance standards, the property owner will be ordered to make repairs. After the repairs, another inspection will be done to check if the problem has been fixed.
This process does not apply to imminent hazards (urgent safety issues), which should be reported directly to the property owner. If the owner does not take immediate action, you can contact the Inspections Department at 651-552-4100. For emergencies that risk harm to life please call 9-1-1.
Imminent hazards include, but are not limited to:
- Gas leaks
- Electrical shock risks
- Serious structural damage or danger of collapse
- No running water or sewage service
- No electricity
- No heat during winter
- Any condition that could seriously harm the health or safety of the people living there.
