SUBJECT: Rec{uest waiver of St. Paul Legislative Code, Section 54. 13,

was more than 50% below grade and he had been advised by the city inspector
to appeal for a variance .
Alice Bijjani said she had made the inspection and had found that new,
larger windows had been installed, with large windaw-wells outside them
which made them suitable for use as an emergency exit. She said the
basement unit was very nice and that her dep artmen t would not object to
a variance being granted.
BOARD ACTION:
Mr. Coleman moved that a variance of St. Paul Legislative Code , Section,
54 . 13, pertaining to basement occupancy, be granted. Mr. Heider seconded.

44- 77-H 1429 No. Cleveland A1 M. Mayers
(7 units)
SUBJECT: Request waiver of St. Paul Legislative Code , Section 54. 13,
pertai ng �to b asement occupancy of one unit , because income is needed
to make operation of building feasible.
APPEAR.ANCE : A1 M. Mayers
PROCEEDINGS :
Alice Bijjani , of the Housing Code Enforcement office , related that.
bir. Mayers had agreed to do all the work reQuired by the city, hut
there was one unit which was more than 50a below grade , thus rec{uiring
a waiver from the Board. She said Mr. Mayers had installed larger
windows to provide sufficient light and ventilation in the unit , and
they were easily accessible for use as an emergency exit. He had also
installed mechanical ventilation in the bathroom. The city would not
object to granting of a waiver for basement occupancy. There was one
thing Mr. Mayers had done in an attempt to adjust the grade level; he
had excavated a one-foot wide, three-foot deep area around the foundation,
which she felt should be filled in.
Nir. Mayers replied tha� he had understood the inspector to say that this
would correct the grade level problem.
Ms . Bijjani said this was an error, excavating a distance of one foot out
from the building did not constitute a change in grade.
Acting Chairman Tieso stated that, as he understood it, Mr. Mayers would
complete all the work items listed on pages 2 and 3 of the May 2 , 1977 ,
Survey Letter.
BOARD ACTION:
Mr. Glassman moved to grant a variance of St. Paul Legislative Cod.e,
Section 54 . 13, pertaining to basement occupancy, provided the excavated
area around the building foundation be filled in and aIl items remaining
on the list in the Survey Letter of 5/2/77 be campleted in a manner satis-
factory to the St. Paul Code Enforcement Divisien. I�4rs . Peake seconded.
MOTION CARRIED AND SO ORDERED.
