Gerber, Jr. City Clerk Building 227199 Dear Sir: This -is written in response to the appeal-of Max- Bix.to legalize and continue an existing illegal four - family use on property classified as "B "- Residence. • The property -is located on-'the north side of Dayton Avenue between Fisk and Victoria Streets, described as Lot 17, Block_, 3, Nininger and Donnelly's Addition. In 1900 the existing structure was constructed with a ground area delineated by its foundation'of 1,134 square feet.. At some later date, the structure was extended without authorization to a four - plex. Because the property is "classified as "B" Residence which would restrict it to 'a two - family use, the applicant must'secure Council authorization under Chapter 64.03,�Section o, par 2., of the Legislative Zoning Code to continue the four- amily use. k < _ The Board of Zoning heard-this request on--January- , -1966. It was.- the Board's findings ,that it would be'reasofiable to permit the four - family use to continue for the remaining life of-the structure provided that the applicant comply with the changes as set forth in The Bureau of Public Buildings and the Housing Code Division report dated December'202 1965, a copy of which is attached, and further provided that four off - street parking spaces are developed on the property. ` It is also the Board of Zoning's recommendation that, if the Council grants the appeal, a copy of the resolution be filed with the deed to the said property in the office, of the_ Register of Deeds. Sincerely, NRH /mm - N. R. He -den Encl.

Dear Sirs= I, Max Bix, owner of the property at 837 Dayton Ave.; St. Paul, legally described ass Lot 17, Block 3, Ninninger & Donnelly's Addition. The general location being, onthe north side of the block between Fisk and Victoria. The property is presently bein-g used as income property, with one apart- ment on the first floor and 5 housskeeping rooms on the second floor. I'pro- pose to use the first floor as one apartment (4 rooms), and second floor (5 rooms) as 3 housekeeping units. The need for clean, well -kept housekeeping units at a very reasonable rental for 61dsr ind }viduals is an economic necessity and an asset to any com- munity. Facilities must be made available for those people with a limited ino- ome, who still want to retain a measure of independence and dignity, which is their due, especially if they are physioaly able to care for themseves. I understand the zoning, at present, is for not more than a duplex, and I would like to bring it in compliance with the city zoning code under Section 64.03, section "o ", paragraph 2. _ We invite the inspection o� the premisesby any authorized representative. Respectfully submitted, Max Bix AUG 31 1965 Cgy rLAlvljjs'4*3 60ALW ,5 11jnt NA, NjinnesQt4 r s 0 December 20, 1965 TO: City Planning and Zoning Board FROM: Bureau of Public Buildings and the Housing Code Division of the Bureau of Public Health RE: Appeal for authorization of a four plex occupancy Located & 837 Dayton Avenue Zoning Files #5883 Filed by: Max Bix, 1230 Selby Avenue The following is a list of items requiring alteration, repair or removal to meet the minimum requirements of the Housing Code and Building Codes: The building is presently occupied with one apartment on the first floor and five on the second. To reduce this occupancy to a four - plex, it will require the elimination of two of the units. Since the second floor is divided up into five apartments of only one room each, we assume that several of these will be combined to make larger apartments. This would result in a possibility of re- moving several sinks and gas plates and thus reduce some of the requested changes in our list. 1. Provide a partition and ceiling construction around the boiler rooms having at least a one hour fire rating. 2. Install a handrail on the stairway to the basement. 3. Replace the badly cracked window pane in unit 2. 4. Install a handrail on the upper portion of the front interior stairway. 5. Install a handrail on the upper portion of the rear in- terior stairwell. 6. Install a hand lavatory to be used in connection with the toilet located on the first floor. 7. Install a new connection to the range so that the connec- tion is made inside the room with a shut -off valve. 8. Install a new trap and required vent on the sink in Apt. 4. 9. Install a sink in Apt. 6 or remove the gas plate and con- vert the room to another use. t r ' Page 2 10. The chimney to which the water heater is connected to in the basement has been cut off below the roof line. At the present time the water heater is now venting into the attic. The chimney construction must be extended so as to vent the water heater directly to the outside. 11. The vents from the second floor sinks have been carried into the attic but have been terminated and left open into the attic. It will be necessary for these to be extended up through the roof to the outside. Y2:- Provide a main disconnect switch for the electric service and re- install the correct size fusing in the branch cir- cuits. 13. Remove the BX, loom and knob and tube wiring used in the basement and replace with wiring that will meet the Code requirements. 14. Install a receptacle for the use of laundry equipment in the basement.
