AMES, Ciiy Archifect 445 City Hall, 55102 May 7, 1968 Honorable Thomas R. Byrne, Mayor and Members of the City Council Re: File No. 1932--970 Bayard Gentlemen: The Building Department is hereby submitting its report on the condition of the property known as 970 Bayard, a single family dwelling. The owner of record is Barbara Beck. The legal description of the property is Lot 13 in Nixon Addiiion to Saint Paul. The property at 970 Bayard is classi.fied as a prefabricated single family dwelling. It is a cottage type made of 4 ft, by 8 ft, sections to give it an appear- ance of a log cabin. The building is 12 ft. wide, 28 ft, long and 12 ft, in height. It has been vacant for an extended period of time and has remained secure only because the neighbors have taken it upon themselves to keep it so when it 'has become broken into. EXTERIOR. Walls are constructed of 2«x3« studs spaced 2 ft, on center. There is one area where one of the sections of siding has been pulled off, possibly due to a storm that caus ed the electric s ervice to pull this s ection off the building. It was never replaced. The building does not have any basement and only a limited foundation. There is a pit for the water meter, accessible through a trap door in the floor. It contains only two rooms: the bedroom and the general purpose area. PLUMBING. Consists of a kitchen sink, toilet and wash basin, There is no evidence of any bathing facilities. � ELECTRICAL. The electrical system in the buildi.ng is less than minimum, and the heat had been provided by a gas space heater. This department has not been able to determine the age of the build:ing. The owners adjacent to it indicated that approximately 16 years ago this building was s et up, but at that time it would have been in violationof the minimum construction requirements of the Building Code. There is a wood shed at the rear of the lot, approximately 5 ft. wide, 6 ft. long and 7 ft. high which also should be removed. �, . �� , � "�onorable Thomas R. Byrne, Mayor and Members of the City Council -2- May 7, 1968 If it is the opinion of the owners of this property that it can be rehabilitated, it will be necessary that they submit the list of corrections which they propose regarding the structural condition of the building, as well as the electrical, plumbing and heating systems, with a schedule for the completion of the rehabilitation program, along with the application for permits. If the foregoing schedule is not submitted by the owners, it is the • conclusion of the Bureau of Public Buildings that by reason of i.nadequate maintenance, dilapidation, physical damage, unsanitary condition and abandon- ment,t.the above structures constitute a hazard to public health, safety and welfare. It is the further recommendation of the City Architect that the Council concur in this conclusion and refer the matter to the City Attorney's offi ce for submission of this condemnation to the District Court. ery tr y ours, Rob r .
