- Minneapolis and Saint Paul renters
- Worth noticing
- The proposed process requires a written repair request and 14 days of landlord inaction before a renter could repair and deduct the cost.
Field notes
The ballot explainer sets out a conditional repair-and-deduct path: a renter makes a written request, waits 14 days if the landlord does not act, then could arrange the repair and subtract its cost from rent if the measure passes. The page also includes a sample repair notice and voting instructions, and says it will update once Saint Paul's results are final; the extract does not identify the election year.
