Section 8 Housing Requirements in Minneapolis

Before I choose any duplex properties in Minneapolis it looks like the recent reversal requiring (I'm putting it delicately) landlords to house Section 8 tenants was reversed.
I'm not keen on the idea of being forced to accept tenants just because they receive Section 8 vouchers.
Any current landlords in Minneapolis out there that are dealing with this? Doesn't this also necessarily force landlords to automatically have to renew their leases as well? And is this only for the City of Minneapolis proper or for the surrounding suburbs as well? I think it's only for the city proper.
If I'm going to be forced to house tenants and not be able to ever evict them or factor in cost of living increases due to improvements I'm just going to avoid the City of Minneapolis altogether.
Thoughts? Thanks.
