February 12, 2008 Legislative Hearing Minutes Page 12
9. Ordering the owner to remove or repair the building(s) at 1801 Nebraska Avenue East
within fifteen (15) days from adoption of resolution.
The property owner of record, Maria Elena Penaloza, did not appear. No other parties of interest
appeazed.
Mr. Magner stated the building was a one-story, wood frame, single-family dwelling with a
detached one and two-half stall garage on a lot of 5,227 square feet and had been vacant since July
17, 2007. A code compliance inspection had not been done on, the vacant building registration fees
were delinquent in the amount of $250 and the $5,000 performance bond had not been posted. On
October 23, 2007, an inspection of the building was done and a list of deficiencies which constitute
a nuisance condition was developed. An order to abate a nuisance building was posted on
November l, 2007 with a compliance date of December 3, 2007. To date, the property remained in
a condition which comprised a nuisance as defined by the Legislative Code. Ramsey County
Tasation estimated the market value of the land to be approximately $48,200 and the building to be
$131,600. Real estate taaces were current. Code Enforcement estimates the cost to repair the
building to be approximately $50,000 to $60,000. The cost for demolition was estimated to be
approximately $8,700 to $11,700. There had also been three suuuiiary abatements issued to this
property since 2007, three of which went to work order: to secure the building and the City had to
board the building to secure it from trespass, remove miscellaneous debris from the yard, cut tall
grass and weeds, and remove snow and ice. Mr. Magner also noted that City had to exterxninate an
extensive coclffoach infestation which also nnpacted neighbors adjacent to this property. Code
Enforcement recommends the building be removed due to the negative impact on the neighborhood.
Mr. Magner presented photographs of the property.
Ms. Moermond asked for a report from Ms. Spong. Ms. Spong stated that this building was built in
the 1950's and would not have any historical significance.
Ms. Moermond questioned the negative impact the cockroach infestation had caused on the
neighborhood. Mr. Magner responded that the cockroach infestation began before the property
became vacant in July and there was a significant breeding ground for them. The City in their
abatement procedure, put down an exterior surface material to provide a barrier; and in the interiar,
they put down a chemical, bug bombs, which was done on a 14-day. This procedure was repeated
on five separate occasions and it was not until the weather turned cold that they were able to stop
the spread of the infestation. It was his understanding that the coclffoach infestation spread to the
properties on both sides of this building as well as properties across the street and up the street.
Ms. Moermond recommended the building be removed within fifteen (15) days with no option for
repair.
