Ordinance No. 16506 (codified as Chapter 54A of the Saint Paul Legislative Code) was approved by the Council on February 15, 1979 , signed by the Mayor on February 16, 1979 , and published in accordance with the require- m�ents of the Charter on February 24, 1979. Its effective date was extended by emergency ordinance to May 25, 1979. The ordinance provides that no one or two family residence may be sold or marketed in Saint Paul without furnishing the buyer a written evaluation prepared by a certified evaluator or with a Certificate of Code Compliance or a copy of the Orders of the Supervisor of Code Enforcement. Under Sections 54A.10 (a) (3) and 54A.40 , said disclosure report is invalid unless it contains documentation of the volume or amount and cost of energy used for heating and cooling the subject dwelling for the immediately preceding twelve months, or in the alternative, a valid Energy Disclosure Report prepared under Section 116H.129 , Minnesota Statutes. It has been determined that such consumption information is not to be made available to a substantial proportion of owner/sellers of one and two family dwellings, and further, that the alternative State Energy Disclosure Reports will not be avail- able for several months.
