Opposition: 2 people testified in opposition to Reentry Services. ;Background: The issue is whether Reentry Services has changed the size or licensing of its facility and therefore needs a Special Condition Use Permit for a Community Residential Facility. `Reentry Services runs a correctional halfway house at 847 and 855 West Seventh Street currently serving approximately 30 clients. It does not have a Special Condition Use Permit because in 1980 when the Special Condition Use Permit ;system for Community Residential Facilities was established existing operations were not required to obtain a permit. At that time an earlier halfway house known as Bremer House was operating on the property. The Zoning Code says that this type of facility must apply for a new Special Condition Use Permit if it changes its "licensing, purpose, size or location." ; (Section 60.423.3) ; �1►� Nc�veuil�dc, 1U, 19H6, Cl►a �u�ii�►� A�In�i�i[dt:�'atcar aa�1G d lat-lat� t-u Naac�t-rY Sarvi��aa, liu� , , iiituruiin}�, cl�aw tlint tliay un�ut ul,taiii a ��aa��1a1 l;uiidl�lun U��+ t'c,r'mlt.

The Board of Zoning Appeals heard public testimony on March 10 and April 14, 1987. Planning Staff recommended that the appeal be denied. Based on co�versations with former employees at Bremer House and licensing information from the Minnesota Department of Corrections staff found that the size had increased. Two residents of District 9 testified that the area is already over cancentrated with Community Residential Facilities. Two former employees of Bremer House testified in support of Reentry Services, saying that it had up to 3f residents/clients at certain times. Reentry Services also pointed out C�rtificate of Occupancy and other city records approving them as a rooming h�use for 36 residents. Tlie Board of Zoning Appeals voted 4-0 that the Zoning Administrator had erred and that Reentry Services did not require a Special Condition Use Permit if it d�d not go beyond 36 residents/clients. On June 11, 1987, the Fort Road Federation filed a appeal of the decision by the Board of Zoning Appeals.

PURPOSE: The applicant is appealing a decision of the Zoning Administrator which says that a correctional halfway house run by Reentry Services at 847 and 855 requires a Special ,Condition Use Permit because the number of residents has increased. . B. ZONING CODE CITATION: Section 60.423(3) lists a Community Residential Facility as a permitted use subject to special conditions and states that the permission is valid only as long as licensing, purpose, size and location do not change. ;Section 60.203.0 states that a Community Residential Facility must be located in one main building on one zoning lot and that the term Community Residential Facility covers community correctional facilities and adult halfway houses licensed by the Minnesota Department of Corrections. The full text of these sections is given in Appendix A. C. ' SITE AND AREA CONDITIONS: Reentry Services operates facilities in two adjacent buildings on a triangle shaped block bounded by West Seventh Street, Jefferson, Palace and Webster. The combined property covers 42,187 square feet. Two other buildings are located on the block: a duplex and the Oneid� Education Center. Other area land uses are the Schmidt Brewery across West Seventh and across Webster to the west, commercial uses on West '� Seventh, and residential in the area north and west. �� D. FINDINGS: 1. Reentry Services runs a correctional halfway house at 847 and 855 West Seventh Street. It currently serves approximately 30 clients. The staff operates in 3 shifts and does not live on the premises. During the day and evening shift there are at least 2 staff people. � During the night shift and weekends there is normally 1 staff person on duty. The typical client is a 22-25 year old malc. Clients arc referred to the program and stay an average of 60 to 90 days. 2. Reentry Services is operating without a Special Condition Use Permit (SCUP) at this time. This is because in 1980 when the City established the SCUP system for Community Residential Facilities existing operations were not required to obtain a permit. At that time an earlier halfway house known as Bremer House was already operating on the property. 3. The number of clients living at the property in question has increased since Reentry Services took over from the Bremer House program in 1983 and the number of buildings where the clients live has increased from one to two. The following gives a chronology of the operations of Bremer House and Reentry Services at this location: i� a. Bremer House: 1970's - 1983 The property now used by Reentry Services for its program was used for Bremer ; House from the early 1970's to 1983 when Reentry Services took over. The Bremer House served clients placed there by the courts in lieu of serving time in prison or jail. (Prior to the Bremer House the property was used as a facility for emotionally disturbed children.) , � r � 7_ �i��- File #1'0053 Page Two Bremer House was licensed by the State Department of Corrections for 24 male clients at 855 West Sevcnth Street. According to staff inembers who worked at Bremer House, an internal upper limit of 20 clients was maintained. These staff members said that the actual number of clients was normally less than 20 and one of the reasons that Bremer House closed was that it was not able to keep enough clients to break even financially. Records on file with the Wildcr Foundation, which owns the buildings, show that the average number of clients at Bremer House was 16 in � 1981 and 1982. The other building, 847 West Seventh Street, was used to house staff inembers when Bremer House was in operation. There were normally 11 or 12 staff people living there. At times this number included 2 or 3 people who had recently graduated from the program or who were just about to graduate and had been chosen to work as staff. This building was not covered by the license frora the State Department of Corrections since Bremer House used it for a staff residence. b. Transition from Bremer House to Reentry Services: 1983 In 1983 Bremer House went out of operation. At this time there were only a few clients still living at 855 West Seventh Street. During the transition period some clients from Reentry Services moved into the house at 847 West Seventh Street which had been used to house staff by Bremer House. c. Reentry Services: 1983 to Present Reentry Services began operating its program in 847 and 855 West Seventh Street in late 1983. It applied to the Minnesota Department of Corrections for a license to operate a correctional facility in December 1983 and was granted a license for 24 male clients at 855 and 12 female clients at 847. Normally when a change is proposed in the number of clients for an adult ; correctional facility the State Department of Corrections attempts to verify that the change meets the local zoning requirements. In this casc at the time of the change from 24 to 36 clients Reentry Services submitted to the State forms from the City Health and Fire Departments approving the houses as rooming houses with a capacity of 24 at 855 and 12 at 847. According to the staff person from the State Department of Corrections who handled state licensing for the facility, the State assumed from these documents that the facility had the required City approval for,a community correctional facility including zoning. Since the initial state license for 24 males and 12 females was granted, two other changes have been approved by the state. In April, 1985 approval was given to increase the capacity at 855 from 24 to 28 males. This was done to accommodate clients on the weekend from another facility run by Reentry Services. In September, 1986 the state approved a change to permit the house at 847 to be used for males rather than females. Again the State did not check with the City about these changes to see if they met City zoning requirements. (The City has recently requested that the State Department of Corrections notify the City whenever licenses are applied for involving new adult correctional facilities or changes of existing ones.) � 4. The property at 847 and 855 West Seventh Street was inspected or monitored by a number of different state and city agcncies during the time it was used by Bremer House and � Reentry Services. The State granted licenses for adult correctional facilities at this location. Thc City inspccted and approved thc property for rooming and boarding housc operations. However, the City never granted an SCUP giving zoning approval for a Community Residential Facility at this location. There was a lack of coordination between these agencies which resulted in some confusion about what was and was not permitted. Part of this confusion came from the �� fact that some of these agencies do not distinguish between community correctional facilities and normal rooming houses. The following paragraphs review the action oF the various state and city agencies dealing with Bremer House and Reentry Services: a. The Minnesota Department of Corrections has issued licenses for correctional facilities since 1980. The Bremer was licensed as an adult correctional facility from 1980 to 1983 with a maximum capacity of 24 at 855 West Seventh Street. Reentry Services was licensed for 24 males at 855 and 12 females at 847 in 1983 and 1984. The capacity was raised to 28 males and 12 females in 1986. In September, 1986 the capacity was changed to 40 males and no femal�s. Z I . , , , � �-- /��.� File #10053 Page T`hree b. The City Firo Department and Health Department inspccted both buildings periodically and issued Certificates of Occupancy. These inspections look at health and safety issues and approved the properties for use as a roomin¢ house with a capacity of 24 at 855 and 12 at 847. This approval did not distinguish between a rooming house and a community correctional facility and therefore did not convey city approval for operation of a community correctional facility. c. The Department of Licenses and Permits issued licenses to both buildings for ' operation as rooming houses for up to SO people. Again, this agency did not deal with issue of whether it was a community correctional facility. ; d. In October, 1984, the St. Paul Board of Appeals issued a variance for building issues such as handrails and number of bathrooms. (The Board of Appeals is not the same as the Board of Zoning Appeals. It deals with building code issues and does not consider zoning matters.) The application form listed the number of occupants as 24 at 855 and 12 at 847. e. In 1972 the Board of Zoning Appeals granted Bremer House a variance from parking requirements as they pertained to rooming houses. In the request for the variance the applicant asked that both 847 and 855 be included since it was "intended that the two residential buildings at 847 and 855 West 7th Street be combined into one residential community corrections facility." Although Bremer House notified the City in 1972 of its intention to use both buildings as one facility, 847 was only used to house staff until 1983 when Reentry Services took over. Since no clients were housed there in 1980 when City aoning regulations for Community Residential Facilities were put in effect, the building at 847 did not meet the definition for Community Residential Facility and therefore was never grandfathered in. f. The Planning Commission handles Special Condition Use Permits for Community , Residential Facilities. SCUP's are required when a new facility is established or an existing facility is expanded. In this case Bremer House was not required to obtain a permit since it was already in existence in 1980 when SCUP's were first issued. Since then a permit was not issued by the Planning Commission for expanded occupancy for Reentry Services because the Planning Commission was not aware of the changes. E. STAFF ANALYSIS: There are two issues here which would require r.eview by the Planning Commission if Reentry Services was operating this facility under an SCUP for a Community Residential Facility: 1. The size of the facility has increased from 24 clients in 1983 under Bremer House to 40 clients at the present time under Reentry Services. ,' 2. The facility has expanded from one building to two buildings. Under Bremer House all clients stayed at 855 while staff lived at 847. Only 855 required a state license. Now, however, clients occupy both buildings which violates thc requirement of Section 60.203.0 that such a facility be in one main building on one zonin� lot. �vcn thaugh Rccntry Scrvicca hps operatcd withaut an SCUA !t ahould not ba cxCmpt from Planning Commis9ion rcvicw. It is cicurly thc intcnt of tho zonln� codo to rcquirc w publlc rcvicw whcn facilitics of this type cxpund. The fact that the applicant believed he had zoning approval based on approval of health and fire inspectors has complicated thc situation and is unfortunate. Reentry Scrvices was ; granted a Certificate of Occupancy and license to operate a rooming house for 24 pcople at 855 and 12 people at 847. However this did not confer City approval for a Community Residential Facility for this number of people and it does not eliminate the requirement for a review by the Planning Commission. F. �TAFF RECOMMENDATION: Based on findings 1 through 4 and staff analysis, staff recommends that the Board of Zoning Appeals uphold the determination of the Zoning Admihistrator that the Planning Commission must review the increase in capacity at Reentry Services and that a Special Condition Use Permit must be issued if Reentry Services is to continue to operate with more than 24 clients. Staff also recomments that the BZA request the Planning Commission to consider in its review of Reentry Services the fact that since 1983 Reentry Services has been operating in two ; buildings on adjacent lots in violation of Section 60.203.0 which requires that Community � Residential Facilities be located in one main building on one zoning lot. 3 _ . , . _ _. ,�. �,�►�� .:� �C�� ..v�� . , _ _ . ,. ., . . _ _ _ .�. . � :� _ . . ::�. . . . � . ..,. .. :�. �::�.�.�: , .... .. _ _. _ �.,..:�...... �: , . ,r L , _r t.�..t�.�� .� �. ... _ .f t .. . . �,. ~ '� �� T .�•�� 4 � 1 ,•.. . �+ . ....�n„ .,'� .

Since la�e 1983, the properties have been operated by Reentry Services as Reentry West. Under both operations, the use has been as an adult correctional halfway house ' (k;nown as a "community residential facility" under St. Paul's zoning definition) . As far as we can determine, the Bremer House license capacity for both buildings was 24 residents. The residents were located in 855 W. 7th St. and the staff were located in 847 W. 7th St. Since the properties were changed to Reentry West, there have been 24 residents located in 855 W. 7th St. and 12 residents ` located in 847 W. 7th St. The City adopted regulations pertaining to community residential facilities, elffective December 22, 1980. At that time, a correctional halfway house was �ncluded in the definition of a community residential facility and certain �tandards were imposed. All new community residential facilities could only ` �, be established by means of a special condition use permit issued by the Planning Commission. One of the conditions added was "Permiasion for special icondition use applies to the community residential facility only as long ae licensing, purpose, size or location do not change." (Sec. 60.423. (3)(f) .) � Althou h the Bremer House was established before a g special condition use `� permit was required, it is nevertheless sub�ect to the eame restrictions as � facilities established under the new regulations. Therefore, because the u � size of the facility was increased from 24 residents to 36 residents with Reentry Services, it is our opinion that the Planning Commission must review � the additional capacity and issue a special condition use permit in order to ' continue operating at the current size. �.. h �� 1 � � ' ._. ...._.._ . . .._. .. .._. .... .__..._._._..... . ... .......... f .1 �� . - . . . . � . . i; } �.�• � 4 �+lS � � r � . : ';' t. ,� � 'r±�� _ � ?,.;, � '. . � " i. ; � . 1 � . . -� �7- //�.s - ' ,.,a+a a5s W. 7ch sc. y,,�eei 20. 1986 page Two Please submit an application for special condition use review to the Planning Division within 30 days.

This facility ran into opposition from a group of neighbors in the area. After a period of time it was determined by the administration that a move to another faCility would be in the best interest of the program. Arrangements were made with the Wilder Foundation to lease the Bremer House facility on West 7th Str'eet, which has been vacant since the closing of their program earlier this ye�r. On September 23, 1983, I met with Mr. Richard Williams, Executive Director and Mr. Bruce Clendenan, Program Director of Reentry Services at the Bremer . House facility. At this meeting, I received the new health and fire in5pection approvals as well as a new license application. This facility at 855 West 7th, as well as the house next door at 847 West 7th which will house a women's program will from this date forward be known as Reentry West. The residents will be moving into 855 sometime during the week of September 26, 1983 and the women into 847 at a later date. S�nce their current license at the Lexington House is due to expire on November 7; 1983, I informed Mr. Williams and Mr. Clendenan to make their m4ve, and once they were settled and all files and belongings were in place I would conduct my six month inspection for this program. This inspection will take place approximately the third week of October. KM:jml cC: Mr. Dick Williams John McLagan File (2r � � � .

It is room #20 on the main floor, which can house four residents. The floor plans alonq with dimensions of the room are enclosed.

The young men included in this propram will live and eat at the residence but will partici- ;Aate in regvlar communit_y activities which will include employment and participation in recxeational activities as well as various educational pursuits . The attached application and the nurnose of this letter is to reauest a Certificate of Occupanc�T as a boardin� house for the residence at 855 Glest 7th Street which will �u'nction as a residential community corrections faci_lity.

Jack Young A�sociate Executive Director � Amherst H. Wilder Foundation 35S Washington Street Saint Paul, Minnesota 55102 RE: Leg$1 room capacities at Bremer House and �remer House Annex, 847 and 855 W. 7th Street D�ar Mr. Young: Rscently you phoned to inquire about the leg$1 capacity of roomers for each o� the facilities at 847�and 855 W. 7th Street. I reevaluated both facili- ties for clarificatioa. Since our first communications in 1972 several ad- d�,[ional sleeping rooms were added on the first floor at 847. Originally only the four roouis on the second floor were utilized, which had a cocnbined capacity of ten (10) roomers. The two additional rooms on the first floor increases the toCal roomer capacity to fifteen (15) roomers, but the avail- ability of just one full bathroom on each flaor places �a legal �limitation of twelve (12) ropmers in the facility. At 855 there are six (6) rooming units; all on the 2nd floor. A seventh room, located at the 2nd floor southeast corner and pr�viously counted as a rooming unit, is presently used as a meeti.ng roow or storeroom and should .. remain as such, s�nce i[ is too small for a legal rooming unit. The maximum combined capacity of these rooms is thirty one (31) roomers but the nuxuber of bathtubs or showers is four (4), which places a legal limitation of twenty four (24) roomers in the facility. T'he second floor west shower is presently noa-functional. If the shower is made Eunctional, then the legal limitation would be increased to ttiirty (30) roomers. There are presently 5 handsinks, 5 toilets, 1 urinal, 3 showers, and 1 bathtub. The following are the capacities of the roowing units in the respective Ea- c�lities: 847 W. 7th , First Floor: Northeast Raom - 2 persons Southcast Roon� - 3 persons ' Second Floor; NorthwesC Room - 1 person �. �J � � �_ �,� � �,.,. ,� �. � . � , ,' . � ; � ; � ;. ;f_ � ,. � � � � i - � � � ; � � � � . �'� ,//�l`,�" . ; North Room - 3 persons South Room - 3 persons East Room - 3 persone B�throom Facilities; 1 Full bathroom with shower on first floor 1 Full bathroom with bathtub on secoud floor Total Capacity of Rooms; 15 persons Total Legal Capaci,ty Limited by Ba[hrooms; 12 persoas 855 W. 7th --.___. 6econd Floor; (all rooms on 2ad ) " Northwest Room - 5 persons West Center North Room - S persons West Center South Room - 7 persoas Southwest Room 5 persons Northeast Room - 4 persons Southeast Room - 5 persoas . .

AB�ENT: Mr. Peterson. Th� meeting was chaired by James Kirk, Vice-Chairman. �E�NTRY SERVICES. INC. [#10053) : The applicant is appealing a decision of the Zoning Administrator which says that a correctional halfway house run by Reentry Services at 847 and 855 requires a Special Condition Use P�rmit because the number of residents has increased. Tl�e applicant was present. There was opposition present at the hearing. M�c. Beach showed slides of the site and reviewed the staff report with a recommendation that the Board of Zoning Appeals uphold the deter�qination of the Zoning Administrator. A letter was received from the West End Business Professional Association in support of the Zoning Administrator's decision. Gerald Frisch, 2350 W. 7th St. � representing Reentry Services, stated that his client was grandfathered in. He referred to the letters and licenses in the $oard's packets. He stated that the slides did not show that at W. 7th and ,�efferson there is a car lot and a McDonald's across the street. The area is mostly business - not residential. PSR who operates nearby will no longer be operating in the near future. His client operates the same as the Bremer }iouse did. He stated there is confusion amongst the agencies of what is, and � what is not allowed. He believes that his client is properly licensed. There have never been any complaints from the Police Dept. It would be a substantial detrimental affect on his client if the Board upholds the Zoning Administrator's decision. Mr. Zimniewicz asked Mr. Frisch if the residential home on the block has ever complained� Mr. Frisch answered no. Dave Bredemus� 371 Erie Street, representing the District Council, stated he has lived in the neighborhood his whole life. He stated it is a residential neighborhood and the neighborhood has had a lot of stress on it because of the 25 group homes in the immediate area. West Seventh is over concentrated in group homes and has done more than its share in supporting the group homes. For the first time the zoning process is on their side. There should not be an expansion of this home. Mr. Zimniewicz commented that there was no letter in the Board's packet from the District. Betty Moran, 265 Oneida� Community Organizer for the District� etated that they never send a letter to the Board if they come in person to epeak. 2? . , _ � . �' •� ' S '�� ,• I� � 1 �� ... .. � � ;_ �. : . �. , '.�...

Mr. Grais asked Mr. Bredemus if the District has ever met with Mr. Frisch. Mr. Bredemus stated that they had met with the Bremer House. Now they have fourjd out that Reentry Services is using the other home and the population has increased. Mr. Woods asked if the District had ever invited Mr. Frisch to their meeting. Ms. Moran stated that the had not. Reentry� as well as the City, is well awa�e of the District's stance on the issue. • Frank Marcoglies� 509 Jefferson, stated that he never received any notice from the Bremer House. He stated that Mr. Frisch does not have his facts straight in 'that the neighborhood is residential� not commercial. He understands that these people need help but their neighborhood is over concentrated with 25 graup homes in the area already within 50 feet of his home. This is the first timle he has every heard of the second home being used by Reentry Services at gii. Mr. Frisch stated that the issue before the Board is whether or not the Zoning Administrator erred. His client was grandfathered in. If the Board is going toihold a public hearing then lets open a hearing for all the homes in the area and not single out his client. Anyone who states they did not know what I was going on in the homes is a sham� there were public hearings held and they ; are a public record. Mr. Bredemus stated that the issue is not overconcentration. If the Board doies not follow the zoning rules now what good does the Zoning Code do to the pe,ople of St, Paul. Mr. Kirk reminded Mr. Bredemus that the issue before the Board is whether or nqt the Zoning Administrator erred in his decision. Mr. Beach stated that the issue here is not if the facility can operate here I o� not� and grandfathering in does not include expansion. Mr. Frisch stated that the issue is whether or not the facility can operate with 36 people and asked how many times his client has to come before the Bbard on this issue. He referred to the documents attached to the Board's pgckets. He stated that it is not an expansion� his client is already a�proved for this number of residents. It is a sham that the Board is coming � a�ter his client and they should not be required to obtain anymore permits. � �r. Beach stated that it is true that the City agreed to a rooming house but �'he department who approved this did not look into the zoning issues� they l;ook into the health and safety issues. Mr. WP�1dp atated that 1t Appear� ta him that both �1deA ere ge�ting awey from Che is�ue at hand •nd aok�d the Chairper�on to r�fer th• peopl• �p��king Co Ch• i�su�.

Segal stat�d that the Board's duty is to evaluate whether or not the Zoning Administrator made an error. Ms. I,.ane stated that their is a committee that reviews building code issues but they do not look into the zoning issues. Staff is looking into a city proc�ss to include zoning issues so that when these cases are reviewed by the committee they will know what the zoning issues are. Hear�ng no further testimony� Mr. Grais closed the public portion of the " �� meet�ng. Mr. psborn moved to approve the decision of the Zoning Administrator based on � staf�f findings 1 through 4 and the staff analysis. Mr. Woods seconded the moti;on� which failed on a roll call vote of 3-0-1 (Zimniewicz abstaining) . Quorum for the Board of Zoning Appeals is four votes. Mr. ;Woods moved to lay over the case until the April 14 meeting in hopes that more members of the Board would be in attendance to vote on the serious issue. Mr. ,Zimniewicz seconded the motion, which passed on a roll call vote of 4 to 0. � � Submitted by: Approved by: ��=�� )� � ��'�"« Tom; Beach James Kirk � , � I � , 25 f ' � � ;. ; ; ; ;-� � . � � � : ,� � �i�. i �; I I , i •: 4 �.:.: ` �'. ,,,, I,, .

Reentry Servicea haa been a good ne'ighborhood� they are in a mixed-use location. The only opposing iseue from tlie neighborhood wea that they are over concentrated with aimilar type facilities. Prior to this time PSR, Inc. operated in the area� they are no longer in the area. He finda the ataff report incomplete� not at the fault of the �tsff� but because of the lack of written information.

He believes that after the Board hears the testimony presented here today they w�.11 believe without a doubt that Reentry Servicao� Inc. can remain without application for a Bpecial condition uee permit. J�ack Young, Director of Ramsey County Department of Community Corrections, has s�erved as the chairman on the zoning commission in his local community, rtated that he was a representative of the Amheret H. Wilder Foundation in 1972 at �he time Bremer House waa opened.

They wanted it seen as one correctional �acility. In l�arch 13� 1972 he wrote a letter to the Mayor and City Council to request for 'a variance for off-street parking issues. It was intended that both buildings be combined in one correctional facility. The matter was looked at tho�oughly. 855 West Seventh Street was licensed from 24 to 30 residents apptoximately. It was not their intention to have more 24 residents in that building. The facility at 847 West Seventh Street was licensed from 10 to 12 res�dents. The plan was to use 847 West Seventh Street to house residents, coumselors and staff. He had responaibility for that program for aeven years witli the Wilder Foundation until 1979. In 1979 he requeated a re-evaluation from the city of room capacities of both facilities. He received a letter from the Department of Community Services� Division of Public Health in which the�r indicated that they had re-evaluated both facilities and indicated that SSS� West Seventh Street total legal capacity was 24 residents and 847 West Sev�enth Street total legal capacity was 12 reaidents. In 1980 there was leg,'islation enacted by the state legislature that provided that the state comrniseioner of corrections establish minimum �tandarda for any type of cor,'rectional facility and provide for the licensing of correctional fac�ilities. He was serving as the state corrections commissioner at that time and licensed the Bremer House facilities both at 855 West Seventh Street for - �` 24 ;residents and licensed 847 West Seventh Street for 12 residents. There was a consistency of licensing. Both facilities have always been used for residents. In the seven years he was at the Wilder Foundation 847 West SeVenth Street was a part of the program. It was a aix-etep program. 847 West Seventh Street was used for residents that had more freedom and housed interns that were doing work in the program. Ramsey County� of which he is re�resenting� is the primary user of the program, they averaged 7600 client days there last year. They use it heavily. Last year they budgeted $235,000 fox Reentry Services� Inc. There have been amall modifications within the pr�grsm over the years from when the Wilder Foundation operated it. The use the program ia substantially the same now aa when it opened. Ro�d Johnson, Director of the Wilder Community Assistance Program� a program he he�lped atart in 1980. Prior to that he worked at the Bremer House as the As;ei�tant Director from July 1976 through November of 1980. He was re�sponsible for the treatment program and monitoring the residents as they went through the various steps of the program. In 847 West Seventh Street tt�ere were clients there the day he arrived and laft. The number of clients di�ffered at times. They always had 4 clisnta on the low aide and 8 to 10 residents in the last two phases of the program. Only in the last phase of ttle program could they live at 847 West Seventh Street. Later that was ctnanged and allowed to go over there sooner. The residents were under very s�rict supervision. As they earned and demonstrated they could handle responsibility they were given increased amounts of freedom. There have �� a�ways been residents in 847 West Seventh Street. The only nwnbers he was aware of that they were licensed for was 24 residents at 855 West Seventb Street and 12 reaidenta at 847 Weat Seventh Street, When Wilder declded to c�loa• thst facility he wsa aaked for hio recommandstion on whwt ohould be dond w;ith th�t facility. He recommended vory �trongly th�t thoy meint�in thKt facility aa a correctional facility, They had a very good roputation in the neighborhood.

Mr. Lloods asked Mr. Johnson who operates the facility. Mr. Johnson stated that; Wilder owns the property and it is leased to Reentry Services at the present time. Bremer House had s purchase of service contract with Ramsey Coun�ty Community Corrections Department. The initial funding came from some fede;ral grants. After that it was a purchase of service contract from the Rams'ey County Community Corrections Department� a per diem for each client thaC was placed there. The Wilder Foundation continued to aubsidize thet program throughout ita existence depending on the occupancy. In the later yea�s it was between $100�000 to $150�000 a year. The clients also conCributed at that time when they got in the latter •tages of the program and were working. Mr. ;Woods asked Mr. Johnson what the occupancy of the main building was. Mr, Johdson stated that it never exceeded 24 in 855 West Seventh Street. Mr. Frisch summarized by saying Mr. Young stated that the facilities were combined into one community residential facility as opposed to two. Any indication in the staff'a report that there are two facilities is �in error. The number of clients has not changed� the operation has not changed. He cant�ot understand why hi� client has to appear before every level of the City of St. Paul recontesting the same issue. He atated he would like to Board to over rule the Zoning Adminiatrator's decision� not because ahe didn't do thipgs properly� but because she failed to have the type of evidence and tesiCimony which the Board has before them today. Mr. Kirk asked Mr. Frisch if at the time they were licensed back in the 70's for; both units� was the 2oning Administrator aware of thia aituation. What he has� been able to obtain from Mr. Young and Mr. Johnson indicates thst Reentry wae licensed from the proper authoritiea. He does not know if the Zoning Administrator new that. Mr. Peteraon referred to exhibit 21 which waa 4 rooming house cla�aification and asked etaff if it was properly licensed. Mr. Beach atated that that house is ,licensed as a rooming house. The other city departments that have inslpected the house were looking at it otrictly as a rooming house to see if `� it meets building code. John Hardwick� Building Inspection and Design� atated that in checking with Catchedi'� office he understands that the Reentry's license covera both facilYtieB. Mr: Peterson asked what the difference was between a rooming houae and a community residential facility license. Mr. Hardwick stated that a community reaidential facility can be located in a zoning diatrict that doea not permit sooning houaea, The Licenoing Divioion would heve no way of know if thay wet�.

This information is provided in your packet. Hearing no further testimony� Mr. Kirk closed the public portion of the aeeting. Mr. ' Peteraon atated that Ms. I,ane wrote a letter indicating that a apecial conl�ition use permit would be required because the new owner of the facility was' increasing the number of residents, Based on the teatimony heard today he ask�d Mr. Hardwick if he agreed with Ms. Lane's deciaion now. Mr. �iardwick stated that Reentry Services stated that both buildings were used. 847 West Sev�nth Street was sstablished to hold clienta. The application for a �tate license in 1985 requested an increase of residents from 24 to 28. The Zoning Code otates that when there is a change in the number of residents the app�icant must go before the Planning Commission for a special condition use pe nlnit. At this time the Zoning Administrator has no svidence to change its decision. Mr. � Peterson atated that 847 West Seventh Street was used to house staff. Mr. Fri�ch etated that if you look at the license you will eee that Reentry Seryices two buildings were licensed as one. � � Mr. , Peterson asked Mr. Hardwick if what he was saying is that the only building needing licensing is 855 West Seventh Street. Mr. Hardwick answered no� � that 855 West Seventh Street has been licensed. Mr. � peterson esked Mr. Hardwick how Mr. Carchedi could have licensed it. Mr. Hardwick stated that it was a typographical error. Obviously 847 West Seventh Street could not house 25 to 60 residents as indicated on the licer►se. Mr. � Friach stated that it was disturbing to have the witness's testimony qus�tioned when they are high quality individuala. Mr. ''Hardwick raferred to the license documenta within the Board'a packet, �teting that it appears to him that Reentry was proposing to change in cap�city and sex of residents occupying buildings. Mr. 'Peterson stated that he understood Mr. Hardwick's oint the ,'license capacity was �o they couldn't exceed that numberbof residentsthat Mr. �Woods asked Mr. Beach to clarify staff's recommendation and asked that Mr. Fri�ch to clarify why Reentry does not want to comply with getting a �pecial condition use permit. Mr. ,Beach atated that a special condition use permit i� required for Reentry. Whec} the number of clienta expands or change occura it mu�t be reviewed. Sta�f believes Reentry haa incressed ite size. He atated he �poke to tyro wit�}esses in January. He received more direct numbers from the State Licenaing Department.

Thepe datea could have an affect on the Board'� decision. Ricrhard Williams� Executive Director of Reentry Services� atated that capacity ig 12 residents at 847 Weat Seventh Street and 24 reaidenta at 855 West Sewenth Street. They have never exceeded those number�. The residents go baak and forth between the buildings. They have a facility at 531 Ashland and the reason they eaked for an increase ia because sometimea these residents would come over for the weekend. Mr; Peterson asked Mr. Williams if they are licensed for 12 residents' at 847 We�t Seventh Street and 24 reaidenta at 855 Weat Seventh Street. Mr. Williams an�werad yea, they have a certificate of occupancy hanging on their wall. Mr. Pekerson asked if the have been issued the �ame type of license. Mr. Williams an�wered yes. . Mr. Segal ststed that in the Board's packet there i� a license from the State referring to 24 male reaidents at 855 West Seventh Street� then a memo stating 847 will house women� then a state license atating Reentry will house 12 female residents at 847 West Seventh Street and 24 male residents at 855 West Seirenth Street� then a letter from Reentry requeating increase fxom 24 to 28� th'en a state license stating Reentry will house 12 female residents at 847 West Seventh Street and 28 male residents at 855 We�t Seventh Street. He atated that if the issue is 855 West Seventh Street having 28 or 24 residents R�entry has had a state licenae �ince 1983. If the iesue is Ms. Lane's letter i� would be important to know when the amendment requiring Planning Commission , r�view of any changes was added to the Zoning Code. � Mr. Hardwick stated that the question remeins if 847 West Seventh Street was a cmmmunity reaidential facility or used to houee ataff. The licensing by State indicates the facility is in state of flux. He has aeen no evidence of number of clientele or sex of clientele. Mr. Williams stated that Reentry is in a state of flux. They have been c�►anging for the last ten yeara. The fact that it ia a man or women resident nske� no difference. They are growing because they ara needed. M'r. Woods asked Mr. Williams the number of clienta they are allowed. Mr. W;illiams answered 36 between the two facilitiea. l�r. Woods asked Mr. Williams why it ia �o hard for them to apply for a special c'ondition use permit. Mr. Williams atated that they feel they are operating legally and it is sxpensive to hire attorneys and consultants to do ao. Mr. Peterson asked why the Board ia to take action on something that heppened tthree years ago, Mr. Hardwick stated that there are different definitions within the city departmente of community reaidential facilitie� and rooming loouaea. Tho rea�on thio we� brought up we� bac�uo• • complAint wa• raGalved �rom the Weat Sevdnth Streat Federstion. Mr. Peteroon otated that it appeara to him that Ma.

Mr. Hardwick �tated that there was a chan�e in the facility� Reentry is in a atate of flux� and that the Zoning Code; atates that if a change occurs they muat be re-evalusted by the Ylanning Commission. Mr. $each stated that the last permitted number of reaidents for the Bremer Housb was 24 and when Reentry took over there wae an increase in client�. Mr, peterson moved to lay over the case to allow the ataff to review the lsws and �ind out when the ordinance was adopted by the City Council. yr. Ryan stated that he would go over to the City Clerk'a Office to check thei� records and aee when the ordinance was adopted. Mr. �tirk stated .that the Board would take a short recess to allow Hr. Ryan to go over to the City Clerk's Office. Mr. $each stated that the ordinance was passed in 1980. It states that a special condition use permit is needed if changes occur in the operation of the facility. � Mr. Frisch stated that the testimony given before the Board was by individuals who had first hand knowledge of Reentry Services. There ie no question about it that Reentry has not changed ita operation in any way, He does not undexatand why the Zoning Admini�trator repreaentative doea not admit that they had second hand information. He atated that if you search through the docu�oents and all witnese testimony you will �ee there is no opposition to Aeentry. Mr. �eterson moved to overturn the Zoning Administrator's deciaion based on I Sect�on 60.423(c)(6) in that the 2oning Adminiatrator believed that there were I 24 r�sidents and that testimony given today indicates there were 36 residents , all �along.

Reentry Serviccs runs a correctional halfway house at 847 and 855 West Seventh Street. ; It is currently licensed by the Minnesota Department of Correction for a total of 40 � male client/resideats (28 at 855 and 12 at 847). The number of clients actually living at � the facility is approximatety 30-36 clients. � The staff operates in 3 shiPts and does not live on the premises. During the day and ' evening shift there are at least 2 staff people. During the night shift and weekends ; there is normally 1 staff person on duty. ; The typical client is 22-25 year old male. Clients are referred to the program and stay � an average of 60 to 90 days. ; 2. The City adopted regulations pertaining to community residential facilities, effective December 22, 1980. At that time, a correctional halfway house was included in the ; definition of a community residential facility and certain standards were imposed. All ; new community residential facilities could only be established by means of a special � condition use permit issued by the Planning Commission. One of the conditions added ; was "Permission for special condition use applies to the community residential facility only as long as licensiag, purpose, size or location do not change." (Sec. 60.423.(3)(f).) ; 3. Reentry Services is operating without a Special Condition Use Permit (SCUP) at this � time. This is because in 1980 when the City established the SCUP system for ; Community Residential Facilities existing operations were not required to obtain a � permit. At that time an earlier halfway house known as Bremer House was already operating on the property. � 4. According to testimony presented to the BZA by individuals involved with Bremer ; House prior to Reentry Services, the houses at 847 and 855 were run as a correctional halfway house by Bremer House from the early 1970's to 1983, and there were clients ; living at both 847 and 855 during this time: up to 24 at 855 and up to 8 or 10 at 847. S. Thc property wAS inspcctcd by thc City Hcalth und Firc Dcpartments during the entirc ,' timc it was uscd us Brcmcr Housc and Rccntry Scrviccs. It was approved for operntion � as o Rooming House and grunted a Ccrtificate of Occupuncy for 24 occupants at 85S and ' !2 at 847. NOW, THEREFORE, BE 1T RESOLVED, by the Saint Paul Board of Zoning Appeals that: 1. The Zoning Administrator erred in his determination that Reentry Services increased the numbcr of residents at its facilities located at 847 and 855 West Seventh Street (Lots 6, 7, 8, 9 and Lots 1 l, 12, 13, 14 and 1 S lying northwest of West Seventh Street, Block 17, � Stinson Brown and Ramsey's Addition). 2. Reentry Services may continue to operate a correctional halfway facility with up to 36 ; clients/residcnts utilizing both houses on the property (847 and 855 West Seventh Street). � 3. Any increase in the number of clients/residents beyond 36 will require a Special Condition Usc Permit. � 3G � ��7 1��a�� Fi�e #10053 Page Two � . IV�OVED BY.
