February 10, 2009 Legislative Hearing Minutes pc���� Page 7
6. Ordering the owner to remove or repair the building(s} at 656 Wells Street within fifteen
(15) days from adoption ofresolution.
The property owner of record, State of MN Trust Exempt, did not appear. No other parties of
interest appeared.
Ms. Moermond asked for a report from Mr. Magner. Mr. Magner stated the building was a one-
story, wood frame, single-family dwelling with a detached garage on a lot of 3,049 square feet and
had been vacant since June 2, 2008. A code compliance inspection had not been done, the vacant
building registration fees in the amount of $1,000 were paid by assessment on August 21, 2008, and
the $5,000 performance bond had not been posted. On October 6, 2008, 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 October 30, 2008 with a compliance date of
December 1, 2008. To date, the property remained in a condition which comprised a nuisance as
defined by the Legislative Code. Ramsey County Ta�ation estimated the market value of the land
to be approximately $24,700 and the building to be $49,400. Real estate taxes were current as the
property was tax forfeited. Code Enforcement estimates the cost to repair the building to be
approximately $60,000 to $70,000. The cost for demolition was estimated to be approximately
$6,430 to $9,430. There had also been three summary 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, boarding, and cut
tall grass and weeds. Code Enfarcement 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
1885 as a worker's cottage-style building. She noted that it backed up to the Hamm Brewery and
that there were numerous vacant lots located on Wells. It was her understanding that the HRA
owned this property.
Mr. Magner stated that the HRA owns most, if not all, of the vacant lots on Wells and it was his
understanding that they intend to acquire all of the parcels on Wells.
Ms. Moermond recommended the building be removed within 15 days with no option for repair.
