Ozderin�the owner to remove or re�air_tk�_e_building(s�_at 1681 Reaneq Avenue =withni -- - _ -- ---- ----�f�ee�{� 5)-�ays-fre�n adoptio�-0€rese��o�r. - -- — — ---- ----- -- Athena Elias, attomey with Usset, Weingarden & Liebo, appeazed on behalf of JP Morgan Chase Bank. Luke Schneider, Safeguard Properties, also appeared on behalf of JP Morgan Chase Bank. Ms. Elias stated that the bank was not currently in possession of the property and explained that the law firm of Peterson Fram & Bergnan had been assigned to handle the foreclosure proceedings and she was unsure when the redemption period would expire. Ms. Moermond asked for a report from Mr. Magner. Mr. Magner stated the building was a two story, wood frame, single-family dwelling with a detached two-stall garage on a lot of 9,583 squaze feet and had been vacant since November 25, 2008. The property owner of record per Ramsey County Taacation was Victor Ikani. A code compliance inspection had not been done, the vacant building registration fees in the amount of $1,000 went to assessment on March 27, 2009, and the $5,000 performance bond had not been posted. On June 2, 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 July 17, 2009 with a compliance date of August 17, 2009. To date, the property remained in a condition which comprised a nuisance as defined by the Legislative Code. Ramsey County Taacation estimated the market value of the land to be approximately $31,800 and the building to be $124,700. Real estate taxes for the second half of 2009 were delinquent in the amount of $1,657.76. Code Enforcement estimates the cost to repair the building to be approximately $40,000 to $50,000. The cost for demolition was esrimated to be approximately $11,000 to $12,000. There had also been two suumiary abatements issued to this property since 2008, four of which went to work order: to secure the building and the City had to board the building to secure it from trespass, remove improperly stored refuse and debris, cut ta11 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 there wasn't an original building permit; however, Ramsey County lists the property as being built in 1950. The property had not been surveyed and the building did not have any potential as a historic resource to the neighbarhood. Although the block face itself was contiguous and intact, she did not believe demolition would have an adverse effect on the neighborhood. Ms. Moermond noted from the photos that it appeazed there had been a fire at the property and inquired about the fire. Mr. Magner responded that according to the fire incident report, the fire occurred on November 21, 2008 in an upstairs bedroom which was contained to that bedroom. The estimated damage to the property was approximately $60,000. Ms. Elias stated that her client wished to rehabilitate the property and were willing to obtain a code compliance inspection and post the performance bond. Ms. Moermond asked whether they had applied for the code compliance yet. Mr. Elias responded that she had inquired about applying for the code compliance from her client the previous day and did not lmow why they had not yet done so. Ms. Moermond asked whether they had hired a contractor to go through the building yet to determine the extent of the repairs. Ms. Elias responded that they had not. Ms. Moermond stated that it did not appear the bank was serious in their intention to rehab the property since it had been vacant for almost one year and no effort had been made to shorten the 09-1303 October 2�, 2009 Legislative Hearing Minutes Page 3 _ --- -- -_ _ _ . _ _ _ - --- — redemntion period on the foreclosure. She said that the fellowing must be ea�pleted in-ordes �oa-- vacant building form must be submitted; 2) the $5,000 performance deposit must be posted; 3) the delinquent real estate taYes must be paid; 4) apply for a code compliance inspection; 5) a work plan must be done by a contractor which will need to be revised upon receipt of the code compliance inspection report; 6) provide a letter or affidavit from bank committing $50,000 towazds the rehab project for this property; 7) must obtain clear title to the property; and 8) the properiy must be maintained.
