Protecting Tenants and Strengthening Communities Through Smart Eviction Policies

Recent developments in St. Paul and Minneapolis around eviction notice policies underscore the urgent need for balanced housing solutions. Ross Nova is committed to leadership that protects tenants while ensuring accountability and safety in Minnesota communities.

In St. Paul, the City Council unanimously approved an ordinance requiring landlords to provide tenants with 60 days’ notice before filing eviction proceedings. Despite this strong council support, Mayor Kaohly Her has declined to sign the ordinance, highlighting a divide on how best to support renters and landlords.

Ross Nova recognizes that extending eviction notice periods is a critical step toward housing stability. Longer notice gives tenants more time to find alternative housing or access rental assistance, reducing the risk of homelessness and its associated public safety challenges.

At the same time, Nova supports comprehensive rental assistance programs. Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey recently vetoed a similar eviction extension, opting to prioritize emergency rental aid. Nova believes that eviction reforms and rental assistance must work hand in hand to create sustainable solutions.

Nova also emphasizes the importance of infrastructure investments that support affordable housing and community safety. By combining eviction protections with targeted aid and improved housing infrastructure, Minnesota can build stronger, safer neighborhoods.

As governor, Ross Nova will champion policies that balance tenant protections with landlord rights, ensuring accountability and public safety. His leadership will prioritize practical solutions that keep Minnesotans in their homes and communities thriving.

Minnesota voters deserve a governor who understands the complexities of housing challenges and offers real solutions. Support Ross Nova for governor to build a safer, more stable Minnesota for all.
