Mr. Theodore Cmiel, owner, appeared.

Page 2
For reasons of expedirion, Mr. Magner reported that he just reviewed the file. A sweep of the
neighborhood was done in Apri12005. The original Correcrion Notice was sent to Mary and
Theodore Cmiel at 939 Charles, but was not sent to Theodore at 6120 10�' Avenue South,
Minneapolis 55417 address. So, the original Order, which was for sanitation, garbage, rubbish
near the alley and also a vehicle with expired Minnesota license tabs was not sent to Minneapolis.
The 939 Charles address mail was returned. Subsequently, the inspector sent a$50 Excessive
Consumption charge and resent the Suirunary Abatement to the Minneapolis address, and it was
abated by the owner. It looks as though the NI�PI office ened in sending the $50 Excessive
Consumption charge, so, staff's recommendation is to delete the $50 Excessive Consumption
charge, including the $20 administration fee.
Mr. Cmiei stated that he owns nine (9) different properties in four (4) different cities, two (2) of
which are in Saint Paul. This property is the only one that he has had a call or two (2) on. It is
important to him that he retains a good reputation regarding his properties.
Mr. Robinson suggested Mr. Cmiel go the Ramsey County office and give them his correct
• address for each property that he owns in Ramsey County. Sometimes at closings, it is assumed
that the buyer will occupy the properry being purchased.
Ms. Moermond recommends deleting the assessment.
Laid over Summary Abatements
� 1243 Blair Avenue (J0503A)
Ellen Weinstock, owner, appeared with her friend, Steve Swanson.
Mr. Robinson reported that Orders were mailed on April 18, 2005 for refuse, cut brush, branches
and bags, etc. for compliance by Apri127, 2005. The address was re-inspected on May 5, 2005
and a Work Order was sent to Parks on May 5, 2005. Parks cleaned-up the property at a cost of
$253 plus $50 and $20 (administrative fees) for a total of $323.
Ms. Weinstock explained that she does not own a pick-up truck and the pick-up truck topper out
there is not hers. A neighbor of hers left it with her and she had been storing it in the garage. A
couple of years later, she decided to clean out the gazage and had to move it out into the yard to
clean the gazage. Also, ihey did some trimming of trees. She got the Notice and Steve Swanson
removed the topper and the branches. She had an arrangement with her garbage hauler to pick up
the brush, which was next to her garbage can. She can't say whether the garbage hauler missed
that week or not.
� Mr. Robinson put in the video. Mr. Swanson explained that those were not garbage bags on the
os-9�3
+ MINLITES OF Tf� LEGISLATIVE HEARING OF September 27, 2005 Page 3
video. Those were strips of black plasric weighted down with bricks and wood chips to prevent
the grass from coming up in certain area and to keep the weeds down. Ms. Moermond noted that
there was not a topper or branches shown on the video, so the crew must have come after Mr.
Swanson had cleaned-up.
Ms. Moermond recommended deleting the assessment.
� 948 Bradlev Street (J0503A)
Mee Vue Vang, owner, appeared with a friend, Xiong Thao, who translated for her.
Mr. Robinson reported the original Orders were mailed on April 19, 2005 for vehicles with
expired Minnesota license tabs, refuse and vehicle parts with a compliance date of May 4, 2005.
On May 4, June 4 and June 22, 2005, re-inspections were conducted. On May 4 and June 4, 2005,
a$50 and $75 Excessive Consumption charges were issued. On June 22, 2005, a Work Order was
issued to Parks to clean the area which was done at a cost of $497 plus $50 and $20
(administration fees).
Ms. Vang, through translator, Mr. Thao, explained that she had wood and tires that she uses. Why
• did the City take that? Ms. Moermond noted that on the Correction Notice she sees that it was
sent to Via Mia Thao, Tong Seng Vang and Mee Vu Vang. Mr. Thao said that Tong Seng Vang
was Mee Vu Vang's husband, who no longer lives there.
The video was viewed. Ms. Vang stated that she uses the piece of plywood. She works with
vegetables in farming. Ms. Moermond asked about all the tires (14) and the car batteries. Ms.
Vang stated that the tires are far her son's car; they are srill good. Ms. Moermond explained the
problem. One can have tires and caz batteries as long as they aze stored inside of a building, like a
garage or a shed. She stated that there is a higher cost associated for removing fires and car
batteries because the City (as anyone else) needs to pay extra for those to go to the places that
takes them. Ms. Moermond asked staff if they lrnew what is charged per tire and per car battery.
Mr. Magner replied that the cost used to be $7 or $8 per tire, now iYs probably $10 per tire and a
minimum of $5 per car battery.
Ms. Vang also mentioned that the truck that was used to pick-up the trash broke the concrete and
it might cost $1000 -$2000 to repair it.
Ms. Moermond asked how Ms. Vang handles translation of her mail. She responded that she has
no one to translate her mail for her. Ms. Moermond stated that Ms. Vang should find heip for
that. Ms. Moerznond noted that perhaps Ms. Vang's son, who works on the cars, is old enough to
take some responsibility and could help her out with translating these types of notificarions. Ms.
Vang said that her son did not understand the notifications.
• Ms. Moermond recommends reducing the assessment from $567 to $280 be paid over three (3)
years.

�227 Charles Avenue (70503A), (305T2Q)
Chonga Sake Mom, owner, appeared with a friend/general manager.
Mr. Robinson reported that regarding JOST2Q, due to a clerical error in the NF�I office, a Work
Order was sent instead of a Summary Abatement for a garbage hanler, so Pazks dropped off a
container at 227 Charles Avenue. Staff is recommending deletion of the assessment for the
gazbage hauler which was $200 plus $50 and $20 totaling $270.
Regazding J0503A, Mr. Robinson reported that Orders were mailed on May 6, 2005 for rubbish
and trash throughout the yard with a May 16, 2005 compliance date. Re-inspecrions were made
on May 16 and May 20 of 2005. A Work Order was sent to Parks on May 20, 2005. They did the
work for a cost of $421.50 plus $50 and $20 (administration fees). The Abatement Order was sent
to KPM Properties 332 Minnesota Street. The property at 227 Charles Avenue was sold on
Mazch 25, 2005 to Chonga Sake Mom, 227 Charles Avenue, Saint Paul MN 55102, and
subsequently sent there. All the Orders were sent to hoth properties.
Mr. Mom stated that he did not receive a thing. The house is new construc6on and he hasn't lived
in it yet. He is having trouble with the builders. He found trash and branches behind the garage.
He called Waste Management to take everything; they dropped off two (2) containers. His friend
• and general manager commented that they think the garbage is either from the builders or from
the neighborhood. She stated that Mr. Mom never got any bill; he just got the call from Paula.
Over a month ago, she got a call from the builder's agent saying that there was a bili for then. He
sent it to them; both were shocked over how much mail had accumulated. The only formal
contact about this was from Paula, and Mr. Mom immediately called Waste Management to take
care of it.
The video tape was viewed.
Mr. Mom said that he doesn't think he should pay for all these bills after he has paid Waste
Management to take care of the gazbage.
Ms. Moermond noted that staff has recommended deletion of the costs regarding the garbage, so
she will also recommend deletion of these costs to the City Council.
Ms. Moermond asked staff when the Orders were sent. Mr. Robinson responded that the first
Order was sent on May 6, 2005 to KPM Properties (the builder); then on May 13, 200, Paula said
that they needed to send Orders to the new properiy owner, then they sent a letter again on May
16 and May 20, 2005 (Word Order was also sent). Ms. Moermond commented that this is a pretty
tight hun around time wise. Mr. Robinson said that oftenrimes a mail man will not deliver to a
vacant house or a house under construction.
Ms. Moermond recommended deletion of t�e assessments.

household items and debris in the yard with a compliance date of April 15, 2005. When the

for admiuistrative costs for a total of $70.
Mr. Cortes stated that when he received the Order, he moved his stuff into the garage. He thought
the problem was conceming just the stuff that was iri front of the garage. He didn't understand
that the Order was for the old stuff that was there when he bought the house. This is the first time
he is hearing about a problem with that old stuff since he has been living there which is two (2)
yeazs. An American friend of his read the letter for him and told him what he needed to move.
He was going to make a payment, but he lost the bill and didn't lrnow how or where to make the
payment.
Ms. Moermond asked staff if the City had actually conducted a Suminary Abatement. Mr.
Robinson answered that they had, but staff is not sure whether the clean-up was done by Parks or
if it had already been done by the owner when Parks got there. A Summary Abatement was done
� and a Work Order was sent.
Ms. Nloermond recoznmended deletion.
