September 8, 2009 Legislative Hearing Minutes Page 12
11. Ordering the owner to remove or repair the building(s) at 533 Minnehaha Avenue East
within fifteen (15) days from adoption of resolution.
Jerry Filla, attorney with Peterson, Fram & Ber�nan, appeared on behalf of the property owner, US
Bank Home Mortgage. No other parties of interest appeared.
Ms. Moermond asked for a report from Mr. Magner. Mr. Magner stated the building was a two-
story, wood frame, single-family dwelling on a lot of 2,614 square feet and had been vacant since
July 20, 2008. A code compliance inspecrion had not been done, the vacant building registration
fees in the amount of $1,000 went to assessment on July 20, 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 $11,900 and the
building to be $70,000. Real estate taxes 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 $10,000 to $12,000. There had also been three summary abatements issued to this
property since 2008, three of which went to wark order: to secure the building and the City had to
boazd the building to secure it from trespass, remove improperly stored refuse and debris,
boarding/securing, and cut tall grass and weeds. 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
1884 as a worker's cottage-style building with Italianate proportions. Originally, there were two
houses on this one lot with a single apartment building in the reaz of the property. She noted that
the siding had been covered and much of the integrity had been lost. The property had not been
surveyed and was not located in any potential historic district. She did not believe demolition
would have an adverse effect to the neighborhood.
Mr. Filla stated that the redemption period had expired on August 19, 2009 and Hal Rossie, with US
Bank, had looked at the building and believed it could be rehabbed. He requested additional time in
order for his client to put together plans to rehabilitate the building.
Ms. Moermond stated that the following conditions must be met by September 30 in order to
consider a grant of time: 1) the $5,000 performance deposit must be posted; 2) a code compliance
inspection must be obtained; 3) provide contractor bids, which could include swom construction
statements; 4) provide an affidavit committing the funds for this project; 5) provide a work plan
including timelines to complete the rehabilitation; and 6) the property must be maintained.
