One of her friend's children caused the fire. This happened when Ms. Hawkins was out of town. When she returned, she tried to fmd shelter or stay with a friend, but it is difficult to find housing because she has seven children. There is a five bedroom that will be available the end of September. Ms. Hawkins has nowhere to go and has paid her August rent of $1,450. She talked to a City worker named Steve who told her to stay at 1132 Selby Avenue for a week. The electricity is off on the 3rd Floor. Today, she found a storage area for her items. She was told she had to be out of the house by today, but she would like one more week. Gerry Strathman asked has she talked to the owners about their plans. Ms. Hawkins responded the owners are going to work on the house, but they do not know when. She has not enrolled her children in school because she does not know where she is going to live; however, she will use her present address and enroll them soon. Her children are 6 through 15 yeazs of age and are well behaved. Ms. Hawkins has been worlting with a community council representative in order to work out things with her neighbor because her neighbor keeps calling the police. Ms. Hawkins thinks the situation is racial. Her neighbor feels she is on Section 8, but Ms. Hawkins is not on Section 8 nor is she on welfare. She is not working right now because she is trying to find housing. The American Red Cross is going to pay her damage deposit, but she has to fmd a place soon before her time expires. She used her emergency assistance of $1,450 on the house. Mr. Strathman stated this order of condemnation was issued on August 29. It is illegal to collect rent on condemned properiy; therefore, Ms. Hawkins should not pay rent for September. Dennis Senty reported he issued a condemnation order in conjunction with his supervisor Steve Magner. After inspecting the building, it was deternuned that hazards do exist. In order to do the repairs, the house would have to be vacated because of the e�tensive damage to the roof, attic framing, and Second Floar ceilings. The roof is open and admits rain so damage will increase as time goes on. The water damage from rain may extend down to the Second Floor wa11s and attic area. Extensive extension cord wiring to the Second and Third Floors is very hazardous. The bathroom has no GFCI electrical protecrion against shock. There aze collapsed ceilings and water damage in the house. Adults can be reasoned with about the problems, but this could present a danger for children. oRiG��a� Presented by_ Referred To RESOLUTION OF SAINT_PAUL, MINNESOTA Committee Date 1 BE IT RESOLVED, that the Council of the City of Saint Paul hereby certifies and approves the September 7, 2 2000, decision of the Legislative Hearing Officer on Properry Code Enforcement Appeals for the following 3 address: 4 Pro e�rty Appealed 5 1132 Selbv Avenue 6 Decision: Appeal denied. 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 Yeas Nays Absent Blakey �/" Coleman � Harris f Benanav f Reiter Bostrom �- Lantry Council File # p0 — R4,3 Green Sheet # 104008 �� .
