My purpose in writing this letter, is perhaps, to save some future property owner the expenses and loss of property that I have suffered.' because of this condemnation which could have been avoided. Your Bureau of Health carried on all its corre this property with the Contract Purchaser, Mr. not with me, the Fee Owner. Mr. Saunders does Register of Deeds office as having an interest did he live at this property, and evidently no time to ascertain the owner of this property. spondence concerning Harold Saunders, and not appear in your yin the property, nor )ne took the trouble or We were in the process of cancelling Mr. Saunders contract for deed because he was about one year delinquent in his contract payments. We finally did cancel his contract out in September of 1964. Mr. Saunders, therefore, would have no reason to-notify me that he was on notice to repair the property. I even paid a Mr. R. F. Ferguson, the Justice of the Peace, to evict ; the tenants on the lower floor of 107 Lyton Place so that I could renovate the building. c The day the people moved out, the Bureau of Health posted the building with placards stating,that this place was unfit for human habitation, and that was my first notice-that you had inspected the building and required that it be repaired. , J r r � 'i F 4� February 4, 1966 Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council - Page 2 - Shortly after the building was and advisbd -me that this place I called the police department appointment with me to discuss posted, a neighbor lady called me was being vandalized by children. and they wanted to make an this matter. I am enclosing a photostatic copy of a letter I received, dated October 14th, which was two weeks after you had posted this building and by that time, the building was half demolished by children. If I was aware that it was to be placarded, repairs would have been underway and this vandalism would have never occurred, and I could have avoided t he loss of approximately $8,000.00. In addition to all of this, I was nuisance by a Mr. Kelly, of your cost me a considerable amount of jailed and fined, although I was arrested for maintaining a city attorney's office, and it time and money to avoid being committed a few hours. Again, I hope you will correct your procedure of notifying owners of property that is to be repaired or condemned, so as to avoid financial loss and mental anguish such as I have suffered, by investing in St. Paul property. If you wish, I will be more than happy to meet with you and discuss this matter at greater length, at your convenience.
