I have referred this matter to the St. Paul City Council with a recommendation to revoke the rental registration
certificate. The City Council will revoke unless an appeal is filed in the next thirteen (13) days from the date of
this notice. An appeal may be filed pursuant to legislative Code § 18.02, by appearing in person between the
hours of 8:00 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. on any business day at the City Clerk's Office, Room 170, City Hall, 15 W.
Kellogg Boulevazd, St. Paul, MN or you may appeal by mail within the same 13 day time line.
Once the City Council has revoked the rental registration certificate, occupancy of the property is not allowed
until (1) an inspection by Neighborhood Housing and Property Improvement (NHPn has been conducted, (2)
the Director of NHPI has determined the property to be in compliance, and (3) the certificate is renewed. Note:
Renting a property without a certificate is a misdemeanor.
Please call me as soon as possible to arrange a meeting to discuss how to correct this situation before the City
Council acts to revoke this certificate. If a11 issues are addressed, I will recommend that the revocation be
withdrawn from consideration by the City Council.
