Re: 475 Como Ave.
File No. 2244
Honorable Council:
The Division of Housing and Building Code Enforcement is hereby sub-
mitting its report on the condition of the structure at the location
referred to above.
The owners of record are Michael Needham, 1182 E. Hawthorne Ave. , St.
Paul, Mn. 55106 and Joseph P. Tracy, 1896 Norfolk Ave. , St. Paul, Mn.
55116.
The Legal description of the property is :
Except Como Avenue, Lot l� ,
Slock 11, Foundry Ad.dition
to St. Paul.
This two-story frame dwelling is in a very dilapidated condition and
due to age, fire and improper maintenance is deemed ta be in a hazard-
ous condition.
The entire structure is old and decayed, the foundation is cracked and
broken and the electrical, plumbing and heating have been vandalized.
The building is beyond feasible rehabilitation and should be condemned
and removed as soon as possible.
Inasmuch as the conditions outlined above constitute a public hazard
and the owner has made no attempt to satisfactorily repair the dam-
age despite our warnings, and the continued vacant and boarded up con-
dition contributes a blighting influence on the neighborhaod, it is the
recommendation of this Division that this ma,tter be referred to the
City torney's office for razing and removal through District Court
pro dings .
