Re: 119 W. Wheelock Parkway
File #3528
Honorable CoLmcil:
The Division of Housing and Buildi.ng Code Enforcement is hereby submitting its
report on the condition of the struct�ire at the referenced location.
The owner of record is Joseph Kent, 119 W. Wheelock Parkway, St. Paul, MN. 55117.
The legal description of the property is: Except the parkway, lots 21 ancl 22;
Blk. 4; Merrills Division of Rice St. Vi11as.
The building is a wood frame, two-story single family residential structure.
The building, because of age, deterioration, lack of proper maintenance, and
vandalism, is badly deteriorated and creates a blighting influence on the
neighborhood.
The building has been boarded-up by the otaner since December 1980.
Inasmuch as the conditions outlined above constitute a public ha.zard, and the
owner has made no attempt to satisfactorily repair the damage, despite our
warnings, and the continued vacant and boarded-up condition contributes a
blighting in£luence on the neighboxhood, it is the recorrnnendation of this Division
that this matter be referred to the City Attorney's office for razing and removal
through District Court proceedings.
