Section 441.630(3) is part of The Enforcement of Minimum Code Standards law. "The Enforcement of Minimum Code Standards statute effectively 1) recognizes the minimum standards for occupancy of municipal housing codes as standards for the habitability of residential dwellings, 2) alters the common law no-repair rule by coercing repairs by the landlord or from his property to restore the tenant's occupancy to the minimum housing code standards for life, health and safety and 3) reads into every residential lease the minimum standards for occupancy of the applicable municipal housing codes." King v. Moorehead , 495 S.W.2d 65, 73-74 (Mo. App. 1973). Missouri Supreme Court Rules (2017).
