September 8, 2009 Legislative Hearing Minutes Page 9
8. Ordering the owner to remove or repair the building(s) at 741 Jessie Street within fifteen
(15) days from adoption of resolution.
The property owner of record, Krohn Kapital LLC, did not appear. No other parties of interest
appeared.
Mr. Magner stated the building was a two story, wood frame, single-family dwelling on a lot of
4,792 square feet and had been vacant since Apri130, 2008. A code compliance inspection had
been done on August 28, 2008, the vacant building registration fees in the amount of $1,000 went to
assessment on June 1, 2009, and the $5,000 performance bond had not been posted. On May 6,
2009, 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 June 8, 2009 with a
compliance date of July 8, 2009. To date, the property remained in a condition which comprised a
nuisance as defined by the Legislative Code. Ramsey County Taxation estimated the market value
of the land to be approximately $19,400 and the building to be $68,100. Real estate taaces were.
Code Enforcement esrimates the cost to repair the building to be approximately $40,000 to $50,000.
The cost for demolition was estimated to be approximately $10,000 to $12,000. There had also
been six summary abatements issued to this property since 2008; eight of which went to work
orders: to secure the building and the City had to board the building to secure it from trespass,
boarding/securing, cut tall grass and weeds, and remove snow and ice. Code Enforcement
recommends the building be repaired or removed within 15 days. 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
1887 and was a worker's cottage-style building. The siding had been covered, the porch had been
enclosed and the property had not been surveyed. It also was not located in any potential historic
district and she did not believe demolition would have an adverse effect on the neighborhood.
Ms. Moermond recommended the building be removed within 15 days with no option for repair.
