Re: 456 CHARI,ES AVE
Dear C10 Globe Property Management:
I am writing to you in your capacity as the holder of a rental registration certificate for 456
CHARLES AVE, St. Paul, MN. You are hereby notified, pursuant to the authority granted to me
under Chapter 51 of the St. Paul Legislative Code, of the City's intent to revoke the registration
certificate for 456 CHARLES AVE . Based on the following facts I have detern�ined that the use
and occupancy of456 CHARLES AVE constitutes a nuisance:
1. On October 13, 2005 members ofthe St. Paul Police FORCE unit executed a search
warrant at 456 Charles Avenue. Several arrests were made, and police officers recovered a
substantial amount of marijuana. Residents Montrell DevornShorn Johnson, Kenneth Green,
and Khulia Fay Pringle were all charged with operating a disorderly house and admitted to
officers that they smoke marijuana at the house. Derek Dion Green was arrested for
possession of xnarijuana with intent to distnbute. A minor child was placed in protective
custody. See: CN 05220720
2. Since the begnming of the year there has been at least three (3) orders issued to clean up
trash at 456 Charles.
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 appeai is filed in the neact 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 430 p.m on any business day at the City
Clerk's Of&ce, Room 110, Gity 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 (NHPI) has
been conducted, (2) the Director ofNHPI has determiued the property to be in compliance with the
city code and no longer constitutes a nuisance, 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 all issues are addressed, I will recommend that the
revocation be withdrawn from consideration by the City Council.
Sincerely,
Andy Dawkins
