In 2021, the Arenson family worked with JustDeeds to remove a racially restrictive covenant from their property. Read their story here.

The City of Minnetonka has joined the Just Deeds project, which assists property owners with the removal of discriminatory covenants from titles.

Though legally unenforceable, discriminatory covenants remain listed in thousands of Minnesota property titles. The University of Minnesota's Mapping Prejudice Project has identified more than 530 Minnetonka property titles that could still contain such covenants, and more could exist due to subdivided parcels.

Volunteer attorneys will assist residents, at no cost, in searching property records and renouncing restrictive covenants.
