The property owner of record, Bee Vue, did not appeaz. No other parties of interest appeared.
Mr. Magner stated the building was a one and one-half story, wood frame, single-family dwelling
on a lot of 3,049 square feet and had been vacant since July 12, 2007. A code compliance
inspection had been done on I3ovember 5, 2008, the vacant builcling registration fees were
delinquent in the amount of $1,000, and the $5,000 perforxnance bond had not been posted. On
Aub st 19, 2008, an inspection of the buildang was done and a list of deficiencies which constitute a
nuisance condition was developed. An order to abate a nuisance building was posted on September
3, 2008 with a compliance date of October 3, 2008. 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 $24,300 and the building to be $65,300.
Real estate tases far 2008 were delinquent in the amount of $4,423.96, plus penalty and interest.
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 $8,122 to $11,122. There had also been
four suunnazy 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
improperly stored refuse and miscellaneous debris, boarding, 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
approximately 1884; however, the date was unconfirxned, and it was a workers cottage-style
building. It was located across from railroad property and was in a row of four identical houses
with two houses being located on one lot with one outlot building on each parcel. This property had
not been surveyed, there was no potential for historic designation and although it did not have any
significant architectural features, she encouraged rehab.
Ms. Moermond recommended the building be removed within 15 days with no option for repair.

2. Ordering the owner to remove or repair the building(s) at 606 Bush Avenue within fifteen
(15) days from adoption of resolution. (Owner missed the hearing on December 9)
Bee Vue, property owner, appeared and presented a work plan. Ms. Moermond noted that Mr. Vue
had missed the previous legislative hearing.
Mr. Maa er and Ms. Spong read their reports from the previous hearing into the record.
Mr. Vue asked what address his mail was being sent to. Mr. Magner said the notice of the hearing
was sent by certified mail to Mr. Bee Vue at 21301 Futman Street NE in Wyoming and 825
University Avenue West, #2 in St. Paul. He showed Mr. Vue the certified mail signed receipt and
asked Mr. Vue whether it was his signature on the receipt. Mr. Vue responded that the addresses
were correct and acknowledged that it was his signature on the receipt. He said that he had
purchased the property in Apri12008 and believed the property tases had been paid. He said that he
would need to verify this with the bank. He also said that he had rehabbed approximately 12 other
buildings; he always did a good job and Jim Seeger could verify this.
Ms. Moermond asked Mr. Magner about the timeline on the summary abatement orders that had
been issued since Mr. Vue purchased the property. Mr. Magner responded that there was a
suminary abatement arder issued to cut tall grass and weeds on July 14, 2008 that was done by
Parks on July 21.
Ms. Moermond expressed concern that the property taaces had not been paid, the vacant building
fees had not been paid, the bond had not been posted, and the City was managing the property by
mowing the lawn.
Mr. Magner corrected that the vacant building fees had been paid by assessment. He said that in
reviewing the work plan, he would need to see the bids from the subcontractors. He asked Mr. Vue
who would be doing the general building repairs, such as the finishing work and general carpentry
and if he were planning to do the work himself, whether he had a general contractor's license. Mr.
Vue responded that he intended to do the work himself and that he did not haue a general
contractor's license.
Mr. Magner stated that accarding to the State Building Code, a property owner could pull as many
building permits to do work on their own residence; however, they were only permitted to pull one
additional building permit for another dwelling within a two-year time period. Since Mr. Vue had
indicated that he had worked on several other properties, he would need to hire a general contractor
do the rehab for this property.
Ms. Moermond stated that the following must be received by December 30: 1) vacant building fees
for $1,000 went to assessment; 2) real estate tases must be paid; 3) performance bond must be
posted; 4) need a work plan which includes cost of labor and materials; 5) need general contractor
bid and subcontractor bids; and 6) the property must be maintained.
