SUMMARY OF ENGINEERING RECOMMENDATIONS
429 and 475 Prior Avenue N. Improvements
Report Prepared 8-1-2012
Public Hearing 9-5-2012
PROJECT
This project is to construct two parking bays and sidewalk along the west side of Prior Avenue
North between Ferona and Oakley Avenue.
The abutting property owner has requested that they be allowed to construct two parking bays
within existing public right of way along Prior Avenue. Additionally they intend to construct new
sidewalk on land that is being granted to the public via a permanent right of way easement.
EXISTING CONDITIONS
429 and 475 Prior Ave North is the address for Wirtz Beverage Minnesota. The have
approximately 350 employees and 170 off-street parking stalls. Upcoming bicycle facility
improvements to Prior Avenue necessitate the removal of approximately 30 on-street parking
spaces directly in front of their office and distribution center, as well as a 50’ commercial loading
zone used for deliveries. The loss of convenient parking is undesirable, and in accordance with
our desire to promote local industrial employers, city staff has worked with the owner’s agents
towards a solution for partially mitigating the loss of parking.
PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS
Proposed improvements included removal of approximately 480’ of existing curb and gutter,
with construction of new curb and gutter and pavement in two separate parking bays. Each
parking bay will be 8 feet wide, with lengths of approximately 190’ and 290’, which will allow for
parking of 14 vehicles. One parking bay will also serve to maintain an existing commercial
loading zone for deliveries. Additional work includes the construction of approximately 390’ of
new 5’ sidewalk, and reconstruction of approximately 180’ of existing sidewalk. Further
improvements include tree removal and replacement, and minor landscaping in conjunction with
the sidewalk construction.
ALTERNATES
To do nothing would be inconsistent with the property owners desire to maintain convenient
public on-street parking.
2
POSITIVE BENEFITS
General improvement of the public right-of-way will enhance and add quality to the
neighborhood. The property owner will appreciate our effort towards maintaining convenient
public on-street parking. The new sidewalk helps us work toward improving the walk ability of
the area, which takes on increased importance due to the close proximity of the CCLRT.
ADVERSE EFFECTS
The primary adverse effect would be the additional maintenance associated with the creation of
two large parking bays.
Normal problems associated with construction such as noise, dust, and general disruption will
be present.
PUBLIC INPUT
The public input has been limited to meetings and correspondence with the owner’s agents.
TIME SCHEDULE
The project will be completed in the fall of 2012. Exact timing and schedule of project will be
coordinated to minimize disruption to adjacent property owners and the community.
COST ESTIMATE
Construction $ 106,562.00
City Contribution $ -20,000.00
Administrative Costs (8%) $ 6,924.96
PROJECT TOTAL $ 93,486.96
ESTIMATED FINANCING
Assessments $ 93,486.96
PROJECT TOTAL $ 93,486.96
It is proposed to assess 100% of cost, less a $20,000 city contribution, to the property owner of
429 and 475 Prior Ave North.

LICENSE HEARING MINUTES
First Student, 80 Arlington Avenue East
Thursday, July 26, 2012, 2:00 p.m.
330 City Hall, 15 Kellogg Boulevard West
Nhia Vang, Deputy Legislative Hearing Officer
The hearing was called to order at 2:00 p.m.
Staff Present: Kris Schweinler and Corinne Tilley, Department of Safety and Inspections (DSI)
Applicant: Randy Rogers, Location Manager, First Student
Others Present: Kerry Antrim, District 6 Planning Council, Vicente Romero, owner/applicant for
Minuteman Minneapolis Auto Repair; Jose Sanmartin, Spanish Interpreter for Mr. Romero; and Jim
McGovern, “Consultant” to Mr. Romero
First Student: Application for a Gas Station
Ms. Vang stated that this was an informal legislative hearing for a license application. This particular
license required a Class N notification which means the neighborhood was notified and people had
the chance to voice their concerns. The City received one (1) letter of concern which triggered the
hearing. There were three possible results from this hearing: 1) recommend the City Council issue
this license without any conditions; 2) recommend the City Council issue this license with agreed
upon conditions; or 3) recommend the City Council not issue this license but refer it to the city
attorney to take an adverse action on the application, which could involve review by an administrative
law judge. The applicant will be required to sign a Conditions Affidavit demonstrating the
understanding of the conditions.
DSI staff will explain their review of the application and state their recommendation. Ms. Vang will
then ask the applicant to discuss their business plan. At the end of the hearing, she will make a
recommendation for the City Council to consider. Her recommendation will be on the Consent
Agenda; the City Council is the final authority on whether the license is approved or denied.
Ms. Schweinler stated that the recommended license condition was as follows:
1. The use of the gas pumps shall be limited to vehicles which are owned and/or operated by the
licensee, and shall not be made available to the general public.
The District 6 Planning Council submitted a letter of support with a recommendation that buses are to
use Trout Brook Circle for ingress and egress and all employees and any related vehicle traffic is to
use the Arlington Avenue entrance. DSI recommended approval with the above condition; zoning
was still under review; however, they approved the site plan submitted by First Student.
Ms. Vang reviewed the site plan and asked about the ingress/egress for the school buses entering the
property to refuel.
Ms. Tilley responded that the buses would enter on Trout Brook Circle, make a loop around to the gas
pumps and then exit again onto Trout Brook Circle.
First Student License Hearing Minutes – July 26, 2012 Page 2
Mr. Rogers stated that the property was fenced and not accessible to the general public. They planned
to install two pumps which would have a code in order to access the pumps for fueling.
Ms. Antrim submitted a letter from the District 6 Planning Council which is made a part of this record
and indicated support for First Student. Ms. Vang stated that since District 6’s request was out of her
purview she would not recommend the use of specific ingress/egress entrances to the property.
After reviewing all of the documents of record, Ms. Vang said she will recommend to the City
Council that they approve the license with the condition recommended by DSI. The proposed
condition was agreed to by Mr. Rogers and is as follows:
1. The use of the gas pumps shall be limited to vehicles which are owned and/or operated by the
licensee, and shall not be made available to the general public.
The hearing adjourned at 2:05 p.m.
The Conditions Affidavit was signed and submitted on June 21, 2012.

RES PH
12-183
20 Approving the application of the Metropolitan Council for a sound level
variance to allow Central Corridor Light Rail construction between 6:00
AM and 12:00 midnight from March 8, 2012 to November 30, 2012
along University Avenue from Hamline Avenue to Robert Street.
Bill Gunther, Department of Safety and Inspections (DSI), said they had received one
letter in opposition.
Paul Niskanen (1142 Sherburne Avenue) said the ordinance would be detrimental to
those who live close to University, especially those with young children and those
who don't have air conditioning and have to keep their windows open. He said the
noise woke them at 7:00, and if work continued until midnight it would leave only six

Councilmember Carter asked about contractor compliance with previous limitations
on the type of work that could continue until midnight.
John Maczko, Public Works, said the Met Council had held the contractor to those
commitments and they had not seen or heard of any concerns or violations. He said
staff was not concerned if the Council wanted to reduce the number of occurrences,
and noted that approval from the Councilmember's office, Public Works, and DSI was
required for permits which kept the contractors on a "pretty tight rein."
Councilmember Carter said heard about neighbor reports of noise continuing past
midnight. Mr. Maczko said there were reports of noise past midnight on two
occasions, but the contractor and their subs were not working at that time.
Councilmember Carter said he shared the concerns about noise, but also about
getting the construction completed. He introduced an amendment to limit the number
of occurrences to 15 rather than 45, and said if more were needed the contractor and
Met Council could come back to the Council.
Council President Lantry asked whether there should be a public hearing on the
amended version. Deputy City Attorney Gerald Hendrickson said that wasn't
necessary, but he noted that the issue would have to be noticed again if it came back
before the Council for additional occurrences to be added. Council President Lantry
and Councilmember Carter said that was the intent.
Councilmember Carter moved to approve the resolution as amended.
Adopted as amended (up to 15 extended work hour time periods may be
approved)

In opposition:
Robert Mercado (376 Grove Street) said he was speaking on behalf of Mr. Prokott.
He said they opposed it because a privacy fence was installed close to the house
and Mr. Prokott had a disabled sister who used Metro Mobility and had to be carried
from the back to the front. He said the property was used for cars prior to the fence
being installed. As a retired police officer, he felt it was a huge liability for the City not
to allow the fence to be there. He said he drove a Ford Edge and could not get
through. He did not have a problem with the fence going up, but physically getting a
vehicle in there was impossible.
Jerome Prokott (1512 Sims Avenue) stated this property does not have to be
vacated, and if it were vacated, he wanted to have a chance to have it. He said with
the fence up, the bus could not pick up his sister, and he didn't know why the City
allowed the fence.

APC 12-244 Public hearing to consider the appeal of Tammy and Mike Thomas to
a decision of the Planning Commission approving the site plan for a
20-unit apartment building at 2124 Grand Avenue.
Tom Beech, Department of Safety and Inspections (DSI), gave a staff report. He
said the Planning Commission approved the site plan with seven conditions on a 15
to 1 vote. He noted that the developer had withdrawn his appeal. He displayed a
map of the area and said most was zoned single family but there was a mix of
properties along Grand. He displayed architect's drawings and described the plan.
He said zoning permitted the 50' building height although there were some questions
about how the height was measured. He said the zoning code required 40 parking
spaces; 37 were underground and three were off the alley. He said there would be
20 apartments, each with four bedrooms.
Councilmember Thune asked about other apartments in the area. Mr. Beech
indicated locations on the map and said none were as tall as that proposed. He said
none met the parking requirement because they had been there for a number of
years.
Mr. Beech provided further description of the plan. He said the Macalester Groveland
Community Council recommended that the City Council deny the appeal, and the City
had received 50 letters or emails in opposition.
For the appellant:
Rita Cooper (2129 Lincoln Avenue) said she and (appellant) Tammy Thomas lived
across the alley from the proposed site. She said they disagreed that the site plan
met the zoning code, and felt it violated some technical provisions. She showed a
drawing and noted that the open parking ramp with no green space was being
counted as setback, and an elevated area on top of the underground parking,
covered by a thin layer of grass and sod, was also being counted as setback. She
said the tenants could not use that area as green space because it would damage
the roof. She said their primary argument had to do with the proposed building's
effect on their properties. She stated that the zoning code required that the
arrangement of buildings and uses must not unreasonably affect abutting properties,
and the Planning Commission must ensure protection of adjacent neighboring
properties against aspects of the design which would have a substantial effect on
those properties.
Tammy Thomas (2135 Lincoln Avenue) said this will be behind the apartment where
she lives with her husband and 3 kids. Most of the students are good kids. They are
temporary and have nothing invested. To think she could have 80 college kids near
is frightening. The neighborhood is desperate and pleading for your help.
Rita Cooper showed a photo of what it will look like in her backyard. It is towering
over her backyard. It will have 80 students. Students keep different hours, stereos,
noise. People tell her she has to move. (She showed a diagram of what it looks
like.) She has a petition of 100 people who agree this is unreasonable. She came up
to close to 70 letters. She is flummoxed by the decision of the Planning Commission.
Does not know how Mac Groveland comes up with this. There are options and
alternatives.
Pete Cooper (2129 Lincoln Avenue) stated this is a true picture of the proposal. This
is an off campus private dormitory. (He showed a diagram of a typical apartment.)
The developer since March said this is not a dorm. This is based on demand for rent.
What matters is who is going to live here. There will be students and 80 of them.
Planning did not have detail of what this is all about. (Showed a diagram of the
Page 15City of Saint Paul
June 20, 2012City Council Minutes - Final
apartments.) On the title page, it says Grand Avenue student housing. This is a
dorm. Would a family rent out a four bedroom apartment like this? There are zoning
code requirements for public dormitories, but not private. This was placed under the
multiple family land use zoning code. It would be better to characterize as a
dormitory, but It is not owned by the university. Zoning deals with the use of the land
and not the ownership of the land. The zoning code does have provisions for these
unique situations where a specific use is not mentioned in the code. This is a similar
use. They are asking for the City Council to see this as a student dorm. He asked
the Council to reduce the scale and density, such as reducing the number of stories
and requiring features that would attract tenants besides students.
Brian Fogarty (2166 Lincoln Avenue) showed a diagram. He and his wife lived here
for 18 years. He showed a diagram with the restrictions placed on the University of
St. Thomas in 2004 when it applied to expand its campus. The building clearly
violates the notion of a transition zone. Even UST would not be permitted to build this
building. A profit developer expects to get around these restrictions. This should not
be permitted.
Dan Chapman (2161 Lincoln Avenue) said this is not a student need. The students
all have some place to live right now. It is a desire for a developer to profit off those
students. He is not anti student. He lives near students now. This is not in my back
yard. It should not be built anywhere.
Council President Lantry said we are already over time. We will now hear from those
in opposition to the appeal.
Graham Merry, developer, said he will address the aspects for the appeal. Heights,
setback, density, and parking. He explained some definitions. (Showed photos.)
The existing property is a plateau. The appeal claims this property is too tall.
Despite this mistake, they have worked with architects, engineers, and Tom Beech to
lower the height. The appeal says it does not meet setback requirements. The
retaining wall is not part of the building: it is a decorative landscaping feature and
separate from the building. The City and neighborhoods complained about water
drainage, so he changed that sloping hill, which added quite an expense to the plan.
Concerns were raised about the density. It is determined by a straightforward
formula in the City code. If there was not a bonus for underground parking, it would
be cost prohibitive. Concerns were raised about the dimensions of the underground
parking spaces. Underground parking is measured by the center of adjacent building
and not outside edge. This has been a longstanding policy in Saint Paul. The
Penfield development utilizes the same measurement method. There are no
development standards that this plan fails to meet. City staff and Planning
Commission have confirmed this. The other aspects from the appeal is distracting
from the fact that this building is a permitted use and allowable development. He is
not asking for any variance, any conditional use permits, and is not asking for any
loopholes in code. He is not affiliated with St. Thomas. He is a private developer
using private financing on private property. He is not party to the 2004 conditional
use permit. The conditional use is only established for the conditional use for the
property it is granted. It is suggested that this building is a dormitory. It has a close
proximity to St. Thomas. If proximity were factored in to defining this as a dormitory,
then the restaurants in the area frequented by students are cafeterias. Many tenants
will be students, but that is a result of location. This building will have a desirable
location for various reasons: access to transportation lines and proximity to campus.
It will be desirable for students tenants. I also think this is a good option for
managing students instead of spreading them out to houses. Many people discussed
a different hearing on the housing ordinance. Single family homes and duplexes are
at the heart of the issue. There should be options that students prefer to live in. He
Page 16City of Saint Paul
June 20, 2012City Council Minutes - Final
is sympathetic to the challengers and struggle this neighborhood has endured over
the years. The concerns of the site plan are from a motivated and outspoken
minority group. They claim to defend the neighborhood, but only put forward their
own interests. The official statement put forward from the Mac Groveland
Community Council advises you to deny this appeal. He values their opinion and
demonstrated this by withdrawing his appeal of parking requirements. City staff has
approved this site plan and Mac Groveland has asked the Council to deny this
appeal. This building is not part of the problem, but part of the solution for change
and improvement in the neighborhood.
Thune asked did they reduce the height. Rob Howard responded they had one point
had it measured from the platform of the garage roof and it was 8 inches taller than it
is now. They whittled it down a bit. It was 8 inches taller then it is now. It is now
compliant with the 50 food elevation.
Stark moved to close the public hearing.
5 in favor, one opposed - Public hearing is closed
Stark said this is a tough issue. There are a lot of residents concerned about the
proposal. He would like to thank everyone who came out tonight. On a factual level,
he does not see a basis to grant the appeal. The proposed development is allowed.
This may be a use we have not dealt with before. It is clearly not a dorm. It could
relieve some of the pressures of students renting. The next item is the ordinance, in
which they limit the density. They are trying to address this issue. For the University
conditional use permit, the appellants laid out the reason, but the developer is right
that it does not apply to him. The west summit neighborhood said they should look at
zoning. They want taller buildings in mid block and shorter on the corners. That is
not relative to the decision before us tonight. The zoning is what it is.
Stark moved to deny the appeal.
Lantry asked those in support in the audience to stand.
Thune said that this is such a bad proposal. The City has done an incredible
disservice to the community if there is not a reason to turn this down. It is illogical
and a terrible shame. It is clearly a dormitory. It should not be in a residential
neighborhood. It should comply with heights, setbacks. It will not be good for the
college, neighborhood.

Ord 12-3445 Amending Legislative Code Chapter 67 pertaining to student rental
housing.
Stark read his amendment. They would define student occupancy in one of two
family units as you rented to students at least one year in the last three.
Stark moved the amendment.
5 in favor, none opposed - Amendment is approved
Josh Wililams, PED, conducted a study looking at the issue to owner occupied to
rental. This was an action last year by the Council. They did the study in April. The
study and recommended ordinance was made public. The moratorium was one year
and expired in August. They looked at the issue of student housing overall. Student
housing does differ from owner occupied to rental as a whole. Some of the issues
are aggravated by poor behavior on the students. There are other recommendations
coming out of that study. The ordinance itself is a student housing overlay district.
(He explained the ordinance.) This applies only to single family houses. Existing
student houses would not be effected. Substantial written testimony was received on
both sides.
Lantry said they will hear from those in support first.
Joel Clemmer (2154 Fairmount Avenue), president of Macalester Groveland City
Council, said they came out strongly in favor for this ord. In the study, they came up
with some data. It is a graph of the on campus student enrollment. (showed a
graph) The total has now leveled off. A higher portion of the students are
undergraduates. Before the 1990’s, there was harmony with the university. They are
dealing with undergraduates. There is a demand for housing, concentrated along the
university.
Alyssa Rebensdorf (2096 Lincoln Avenue) stated this is nuisance behavior. They
should call St. Thomas and the police. If calls to the police and working with student
leaders at the Univ. would solve the problem, they would not be here now. She is
asking the Council to walk in their shoes.
Appellant at 1892 Ashland spoke about several houses in the neighborhood that had
problems. Jay Benanav was so frustrated that he ran for city council. Their
neighborhood is in decline. This is not a global indictment of all students. Everyone
is suffering if any neighborhood has problems. They are all lifting people up.
Shaun McElhatton (1879 Carroll Avenue) stated radius restrictions is unusual and
unenforceable. There is a certain category of usage that can overload a
neighborhood. The answer is a radius restriction, such as bingo hall, liquor licenses,
pawn shops, tobacco shops, etc. She urges the Council to adopt the ordinance.
Scott Banis, West Summit Neighborhood Advisory Committee, stated the fear is that
without action they will gaze upon the homes and streets. There is still time and hope
that they will prevent the crime with the continued conversion of single family homes.
They support the proposed concentration ordinance. They will help in the continued
inhabitants. Existing trends point to more convergence. The future of the
neighborhoods is in large measure dependent on the proposed ord. It is good public
policy.
Valerie Cripe stated they do not live in the proposed zone. They are house hunting
and considered a home on Lincoln. They are looking for a home to live, grow family.

She is concerned about the density of student housing. Many of the people would
choose not to stay if they had to. They are looking for the peace and enjoyment to
the home. They are looking for an adult neighborhood.
James Savoie (2023 Lincoln Avenue) said They are not expanding on the
dormitories. He has had some theft, vandalism. There seems to be nothing done.
They are not trying to exclude the people. It has always been a good mix.
Dana Welebski (2150 Fairmount Avenue) said she was a student at St. Thomas.
(She talked about where she lived.) They remodel homes. They have students on
their street. They have seen what housing conditions have become. This would
keep the neighborhood stable. We need to focus on family and seniors and consider
them as well as the students.
Doug Dennis, Government Relations at St. Thomas, stated they value their presence
in an attractive neighborhood. They understand the concerns that there is too much
rental housing. They cannot support the ordinance. It unfairly singles out St.
Thomas. They are the largest university in Saint Paul. Throughout this process, they
urge the City to look at all colleges in Saint Paul and not just St. Thomas. The issue
of student housing should be dealt with on a city-wide level. If a density ordinance is
considered good public policy, then it should be applied to all colleges. There should
be a minimum of 100 feet between student housing instead of 150 feet. They are not
in a position to borrow funds now: they reached their debt capacity building the
student center, recreational complex, and parking ramp. They vigorously oppose
sophomores living on campus. This would hurt their recruitment efforts. 60% come
from the Twin Cities area. Students need the flexibility of living on or off campus.
Rhys Ledger (1440 Wellesley Avenue) said they do not need downward pressure on
real estate values. Families are already struggling to hold onto their homes. St.
Thomas is one of five in the area. The idea that somehow this issue of student
housing is unique, is inaccurate. There is a strong pressure of student housing in the
other institutions. St.Thomas students are a vital part of the community. Balance is
important. He understands that is the give and take of living in the area. In terms of
the boundaries, they are arbitrary. The City does not think there is a problem in other
area, they are not looking. It is a short car ride if necessary. This is a problem that
needs to be fixed. There needs to be more dorms and fewer parking decks.
Eric Meyers, realtors, stated they are in opposition of the mechanism in this
ordinance. The gov. affairs committee has looked at this ordinance and understand
the complaints of the community. For them, it comes down to the property rights to
all property owners. When they purchase a house, they are buying the house and
the rights to sell. One right is to let property to rent. These are residents for the
youth. The lifestyle is different, but the zoning use of a rental property--non
homestead versus homesteaded property--is no different. It will be a problem with
enforceability. He feels the problems with the neighbors, but this will not change the
demand for student housing. Enrollment is the same. People are going to live near
campus. This ordinance does not solve the issue. They request that the actual
solution is going to be better coordination between the students, the university,
landlord, and the community.
Steven Strand (226 Wilder Street North) attorney, realtor, said this will not hit the
mark. Homeowners want their full bucket of rights. The study brought up other
areas. What he has read and seen is there will be lawsuits against the City and
animosity in the neighbors. Student fall under protected classes. He manages four
other apartments in the past. Perhaps the Council could use curfews. They could
congregate in groups of four or more. Maybe cannot drive after a certain time.

David Doran (1832 Carroll Avenue and 1232 Laurel Avenue) stated he owns two
rental properties in the area. He does not feel this ordinance will solve the problem.
Everyone has to be held responsible. He has called the police. Landlords need to be
held responsible. This ordinance will push this issue to a neighboring community.
Dr. Angelette stated this ordinance does not pertain to her. At some point, she will
want to sell her house. She bought it as a student. It was a student house when she
bought it. There are some basics the students need to learn. She has a problem
with the roving groups of students.
Jason Scott (1491 Mississippi Street) owns property in the zoning area. All of them
are duplexes. He rents to people. He does not delegate whether they are a student.
He rents to 34 students, and some of them stay beyond graduation for 2 or 3 years
while they work. It is a personal behavior problem and not a zoning. He does not
believe any of the duplexes have problems. He works with the university and police
to address the problems. He does this full time. Not every landlord is the same. He
has invested hundreds of thousands in the upkeeping of his property. His property
taxes are high because they are nonhomesteaded.
Tait Danielson, stated he works in Downtown, this issue has peaked the issue of his
board of directors.
Lantry said that he could not continue, as time has run out.
Someone moved to close the public hearing - 5 in favor, none opposed
Lantry asked those in support of the ordinance to stand.
Lantry asked those in opposition of the ordinance to stand.
Lantry stated this is the third reading.
Stark said he sponsored this ordinance. He does not take the concerns in opposition
likely. They are working effectively to manage behavior. They have good
cooperation with the police department. They are trying to hold people who hold
parties responsible. There is a separate issue and a concentration of impact. This is
a unique use when you put a concentration of a community of folks in the
neighborhood. As for doing it for the rest of the City, the other complaints are
scattered. 90% are around St. Thomas. About 60% are in the zoning. He feels they
have targeted the area where the issue is unique. The concern about pushing the
problem outward, the existing properties would be grandfathered in. The changes
would be moderate and gradual. This would stabilize things. The University of St.
Thomas needs to house more students on campus.
Thune said there are other cities that help them build dormitories and houses on
campus. That might be a good fit.

Friday. The fire damage was significant. There was a fair amount of blast also. The
fire was Halloween 2011.
Deanne Tambornino stated this has been a nightmare. She is asking for leniency to

Project No. J1201V1, Assessment No. 128001 at 858 DESOTO
STREET. (Public Hearing held on May 16, 2012)
Moermond stated this is a vehicle abatement. The orders were originally issued for 2
vehicles. The 2 vehicles were inoperable and missing key parts, no current tabs,
under tarps. There was a car and truck. The charges for the towing and storage,
subtract from that the money the City received from the sell, towing, storage, admin.
fees, minus the cost at auction. She recommend the payments be divided over 5
years.
Owner said he bought the property in 2001. He put a lot into it. Then, the bottom
dropped out. He went into 2 foreclosures. He got out of them. The 2 vehicles he
talked about, the primary concern was to keep the house. He has plates for the
vehicles. He has the receipts for the plates on the Camaro. He talked to the hearing
officer about the Camaro. He showed there were no tickets on the Camaro. He has
storage on his garage. He moved everything out of storage. He did not have the
money to redo the truck. If he brought the truck back, it would be towed again. The
house went down $100,000. He is doing everything he can to keep the house.

60 Appeal of Jennifer Vietmeier to a Correction Notice-Complaint
Inspection at 1865 COTTAGE AVENUE EAST.
Moermond said the item of contension is the ceiling height. The room is 6 by 22 feet
long. There is a peaked roof. There is a small percentage above 6 foot 7. The
requirement is ½ of the floor area needs to be above 7 feet. This falls way short.
She recommends denying the appeal.
Lantry said it cannot be used as a bedroom. Moermond responded it is for sleeping
purposes, yes. Technically, the code does not differentiate, but they do in these
settings.
Jennifer Vietmeier stated she installed an egress window, which cost $1,000. She
was unaware of the ceiling height requirement. She had a provisional certificate of
occupancy. Her sole purpose of renting the home was to avoid foreclosure. It is not
financially preferable to continue renting it as a 3 bedroom. For it to be a 2 bedroom
is a hardship. She owes several hundred more than what she takes in as rent. She
is confused why it has come up at this time. Her husband is 6 feet tall and he had no
problem with it. She has done her due diligence. She is interested in trying to hang
onto it. She feels she should be granted a variance.
Bostrom moved to close the public hearing.
5 in favor, none opposed - Public hearing is closed
Stark said it went through one or more inspections prior to the ceiling height being
raised. Moermond asked has she gone through an inspection before. Vietmeier
responded said she had a provisional put into it.
Brendmoen stated she pulled permit, built it, it was inspected several times.
Moermond responded she only looked at this issue. There was a fire inspection In
2011 and that inspection did not list the ceiling height as an issue.
Bostrom said maybe it was not considered as a bedroom back then. It may not have
been listed as a bedroom when it was originally inspected.
Brendmoen stated she has a problem with the City approving these things and then
changing later. She feels a certain amount of sympathy.

Ord 12-3425 Amending Legislative Code Chapter 67 pertaining to student rental
housing.
Councilmember Stark said the issue had been reviewed over a long period of time at
several levels, and while everyone agreed there was a problem, there was dissent as
to the best solution. He said he viewed the ordinance as a tool in the toolbox for
addressing the issues in the neighborhood, and he hoped that additional tools would
be developed over time. He said the effectiveness of the ordinance in addressing the
issues would be monitored.
Councilmember Tolbert apologized for having missed the previous week's meeting
and public hearing but said he had watched the meeting online and read all of the
comments. He expressed reservations and concerns about the ordinance including
its potential effects on surrounding neighborhoods and on the quality of existing rental
housing. He acknowledged the problems that existed but said he felt the ordinance
was of a prohibitive nature and bad policy, and he was unable to support it. He urged
the Council to be cognizant of unintended consequences and said that capping the
amount of student housing could lead to dilapidated houses and higher rents. He
said the borders felt arbitrary and the ordinance would be difficult to enforce.
Councilmember Stark responded that the ordinance was not a ban, as it had been
referred to by Councilmember Tolbert, as existing student rentals were grandfathered
in and more could be added outside the 150 foot area. He stated that there was no
reason to believe that student bodies were growing or that the problem would get
pushed to other areas. He acknowledged the concern over the perception that
students were not welcome, but said that was not the intended message. He
stressed the important role colleges played in the community, but said things had
gotten out of balance in the neighborhood. He said the border line was not arbitrary
but was based on student rental data from St. Thomas and from DSI. He said he had
spoken with DSI about enforcement, and the ordinance was designed so that it would
not be an enforcement burden.
Councilmember Carter said he shared many of the concerns raised by
Councilmember Tolbert, and he felt the ordinance represented a neighborhood
approach to addressing the citywide problem of some neighborhoods having a high
concentration of rental properties. He said the focus should be on a set of behaviors
rather than a set of people, and that colleges and universities should have adequate
on-campus housing. He acknowledged that there was a specific challenge
concerning a set of behaviors concentrated in this area, and said he would support
the ordinance with the hope and expectation that this was not a finish line but a
starting point.
Councilmember Bostrom expressed concern about the fact that the ordinance
identified a particular group of people, and said the grandfathering of existing rental
student rentals gave those landlords an exclusive right which would act as a
disincentive to maintaining the properties. He said he was going to vote against it.
Council President Lantry noted that St. John's University now required all students to
live on campus after having struggled with challenges similar to those being faced
around St. Thomas. She said care should be taken to avoid rejecting a good solution
for the sake of waiting to find a perfect one, and she expressed appreciation for the
respectful dialog and civil debate. She stressed the importance of making the
distinction between student housing and rental housing, and said the ordinance was
the result of a thoughtful process over a period of time. She said she was tired of
police having to spend their time managing rental property.

APC 12-630 Public hearing to consider the appeal of the District 6 Planning Council
to a decision of the Planning Commission approving a conditional use
permit for Volunteers of America-MN to operate a Department of
Corrections-licensed community residential facility at 1394 Jackson
Street.
Councilmember Brendmoen requested short staff report. She asked that both public
hearings be conducted in their entirety before the Council members made their
decisions.
Allan Torstenson, Planning and Economic Development (PED), said a conditional
use permit, with a modification of the condition pertaining to the number of residents,
had been approved by the Planning Commission on June 1. He said the Planning
Commission found that the use met all of the applicable standards and conditions but
one, which limited the number of residents to 16 except in B4 and B5 business
districts, where 32 residents was the maximum. He said Volunteers of America
(VOA) had applied for a modification of the condition to allow up to 74 residents. He
said the Planning Commission found that the applicable conditions were met to allow
a modification for 32 residents but not for 74. He reviewed the two appeals.
Appellant:
Kerry Antrim, District 6 Planning Council, read a statement. She expressed concerns
about residential use of a property that was in the middle of an industrial area and
had not had a residential use in a long time. She said the decision might come down
to interpretation of the policies set forth in the District 6 Plan and the City's
Comprehensive Plan.
Karen Hauck, CEO of Advance Shoring, displayed an aerial photograph of the
adjacent properties, and expressed concerns about a residential use next to her
company's very industrial use.
Kirsten Libby, attorney representing District 6, said the appeal was based on errors in
the findings of fact and in procedure. She reviewed the Volunteers of America
(VOA) proposal and the effects upon adjacent properties and conflicts with the
existing plans. She said the standards for the conditional use permit had not been
met; she reviewed the errors and conflicts.
In opposition:
Tom Johnson, attorney representing VOA, said the proposal was to move an existing
and successful program to a building designed for institutional residential use and
designed to accommodate more residents than proposed. In response to points
raised by Ms. Libby, he said the proposal was consistent with goal of job creation,
and he stressed the distinction between family residential and institutional. He said
the code allowed the institutional use.

APC 12-731 Public hearing to consider the appeal of Volunteers of America-MN to
a decision of the Planning Commission approving a conditional use
permit for Volunteers of America-MN to operate a Department of
Corrections-licensed community residential facility at 1394 Jackson
Street.
Appellant:
Paula Hart (7625 Metro Boulevard, Edina), President and CEO of Volunteers of
America (VOA) in Minnesota, described the organization. She said they were
appealing to the Council to follow the wisdom of City staff, who had diligently guided
VOA through the application process and followed the City's rules and precedent in
making their determination. She said in connection with the conditional use permit,
VOA-Minnesota would commit to paying the City an annual amount equal to the City
portion of the property taxes levied at 1394 Jackson Street, would grant the City first
right of refusal if VOA-Minnesota offered the property for sale, and would not sell the
property as a community residential facility should the City choose not to exercise its
right of first refusal.
Teri Twardowski, program manager of the Roseville location, described the program
and goals.
Lance Petschl, past resident, described his experiences and the ways in which he
had benefited from his time at the Rosevillle facility.
Tom Johnson, attorney representing VOA, said there was no dispute that VOA had
met the legal standard for an upward modification. He said the limit of 32 residents
was chosen arbitrarily, based on the fact that one of the Planning Commissioners
knew that 32 was the limit for downtown facilities. He said the contract between the
VOA and the Bureau of Prisons required a capacity of 74 residents, and a capacity of
less than 74 was not economically sustainable for the VOA.
Kerry Antrim (District 6 Planning Council) said no one was disputing that the VOA ran
a stellar program. She said it was rational and reasonable to allow 16 residents as
per the code.
Kirsten Libby, attorney representing District 6, reiterated that the issue was land use
and not VOA. She asked that the City overturn the conditional use permit, or at least
limit the facility to 16 beds. She said they were asking that this industrial land be
allowed to be developed in a way consistent with existing plans.
Dick, Jackson Street resident, expressed concern about loss of property value, the
loss of needed industrial land, and the effect on the lives of long term residents of the
area.
Councilmember Brendmoen moved to close the public hearing. Yeas - 6 Nays - 0
Councilmember Brendmoen thanked everyone for their work, and acknowledged
District 6 and neighbors. She commended the VOA on their work. She said based
on information in the record and after consultation with the City Attorney's office, her
finding was that the that Planning Commission had erred in finding that the
application met the City's standards for approving a conditional use permit. She cited
specific sections of the code and comprehensive plans in explaining her decision.
Council President Lantry commended Councilmember Brendmoen on her work.

LEGISLATIVE HEARING ITEMS REQUIRING DISCUSSION
Items 114 and 116 were considered together at the beginning of the Legislative
Hearings.

RLH VO
12-47
114 Appeal of Southern Minnesota Regional Legal Services (SMRLS), on
behalf of several tenants, to a Notice of Condemnation and Order to
Vacate at 1205 WESTMINSTER AVENUE.
Legislative Hearing Officer Marcia Moermond reviewed the past Council action on the
properties and described the current appeals. She said there was agreement among
all parties that the conditions described in the orders did exist, and the question was
whether the conditions supported an order to vacate. She noted that the
condemnation of the balconies had been part of earlier orders. She said conditions
had not changed significantly since January, and she described the change in
ownership and management. She said the owner decided in late May that the work
couldn't be done piecemeal, and the City issued orders to vacate by July 1. She
expressed concern about what appeared to be continued use of the condemned
balconies, and said she didn't believe conditions would improve since the owner and
property management had indicated that they would not continue with piecemeal
work. She said her recommendation was to order the properties vacated by July 9,
and the appellant was asking for an extension in order to pursue a other legal
remedies. She said an emergency tenant remedy action had been filed and a
hearing scheduled for July 12, but that hearing was between the tenants and property
owner and dealt with lease obligations.
In opposition:
Appellant Tovah Flygare (55 E. 5th Street, Ste. 400), Southern Minnesota Regional
Legal Services (SMRLS), appeared along with a number of building tenants. Ms.
Flygare reviewed the appeal and emphasized that tenants were not "asking for the
moon" but were asking for their basic legal rights. She said the filing of the tenant
remedies action had resulted in a favorable order, and a vacate date of July 9 date
would not allow time for that legal process to be completed. In response to to a
question from Councilmember Thune, she said fewer than ten households remained,
several with small children.
Councilmember Tolbert asked whether the tenants were looking for more time to find
new housing or were asking for more time to allow repairs to be made at so they
could continue to live there. Ms. Flygare said they were asking for additional time to
enforce their legal rights under the law, and there were several alternative remedies
in the order signed by the judge. Councilmember Carter asked for further clarification
of the legal rights being pursued by the tenants. Ms Flygare said she was asking for
time for the tenants to complete the emergency remedies action that had been filed.
Council President Lantry asked what date they were asking for. Ms. Flygare said
August 1.
Councilmember Thune said he was still not clear as to whether the goal was to find
new housing or make repairs so the tenants could remain. Ms. Flygare said both
were possible remedies.
Tenant Aurelia (via interpreter) said she was present to tell about threats and abuses
from Equimax (property management company). She shared an anecdote of
intimidation by management and described deteriorating conditions with the new
ownership.
Council President Lantry reminded those giving testimony that the issue before the
Council was the condition of the apartments, and not issues with the management
which would be addressed through the court system.
Leslie McMurray, Executive Director of the District 5 Planning Council, said she felt
Page 14City of Saint Paul
July 3, 2012City Council Minutes - Final
that comments by the tenants did speak to conditions at the apartments.
Additional tenants gave testimony (via interpreters) about conditions at the
apartments, intimidation from management, and they requested help from Council.
Jane Prince (1004 Burns Avenue), appearing as East Sider and volunteer, distributed
a letter. She said the building situation had not changed since December when the
Council decided not to condemn or order vacation, and that the Council did not have
to order condemnation and vacation of all units now.
Al Oertwig (509 Fred Street), President of the District 5 Planning Council, said District
5 wanted two things: safe living conditions and protection of residents while repairs
are being made. He said there had been no rush over the past few years to correct
conditions at the property, but there appeared to be a rush now to remove the
residents, potentially making some of them homeless. He asked the Council to grant
more time.
Ms. McMurray, made closing comments about the behavior of the management and
conditions at the property. She said displacement of the tenants would not improve
health and safety of the community.

115 Appeal of Peter W. Brown, on behalf of several tenants, to a Notice of
Condemnation and Order to Vacate at 1205 WESTMINSTER
STREET.
Peter Brown, clarified that the appellants were 18 residents, including some residents
who had already testified. He distributed materials related to orders issued earlier,
and said at that time it was determined both in Legislative Hearings and City Council
that adequate progress was being made. Legislative Hearing Officer Marcia
Moermond clarified that those materials were already a part of the record.
Pablo Tapia (3840 Patriot Lane, Lexington) said he was a cofounder of an alliance of
Latino-speaking churches and had learned of the conditions at the apartment from
renters who attended churches in the organization. He said they found the worsening
living conditions troublesome, and felt that the conditions were the fault of the
management and not the tenants. On behalf of the organization, he demanded that
the tenants be give enough time and be given the dignity and respect they deserved.
Mr. Brown said the condemnation order put the power of the City behind the
management's push to get the tenants out, when the City could have been using that
power on behalf of the tenants with an emergency tenant remedies action (ETRA).
He said the City was now interfering with the ETRA filed by SMRLS, and the purpose
of the housing code was to protect these poor and mostly minority residents and not
to push them out through gentrification. He said conditions were the same on June 1
as they had been on May 8 and May 18, and the property was not deemed
condemnable on May 8.
Leslie McMurray, District 5, asked for short extension to allow tenants to be relocated
through the legal actions.
Mr. Brown said the decks had been used for 30 years and a board had never
cracked. He said the decks had been condemned on February 17, but Department of
Safety and Inspections (DSI) inspectors had noted apparent use of the decks since
then and it didn't appear that anyone really believed the decks represented an
immediate threat.
In support:
Wade Shatzer (1161 Wayzata Boulevard, #312, Wayzata), owner of property
management company Equimax Real Estate, said only six families remained of the
45 who were there are on May 1. He said they, along with some charitable
organizations, had been working tirelessly to help tenants find new housing, and at
this point there was no excuse. He said they had found it wasn't possible to fix things
with the units occupied, and they had acted quickly so moves could take place in the
summer before school started. He said the goal was to make the property an asset.
Councilmember Brendmoen moved to close the public hearing. Yeas - 5 Nays - 0
(Carter not present for vote)
Councilmember Brendmoen thanked residents and City staff, and reviewed
conditions and activity at properties since January. She said it was not safe for
tenants to remain in a building that was largely vacant, but she was committed to
helping the remaining tenants relocate.
Councilmember Carter said the Council's responsibility was to the tenants not the
property, and in this case that meant helping them move on.
Councilmember Tolbert commended CM Brendmoen on her work. He said the time
Page 16City of Saint Paul
July 3, 2012City Council Minutes - Final
was now to move forward and get the tenants out of the poor conditions.
Councilmember Thune agreed that sometimes buildings reached the point where it
was not possible to make necessary repairs with tenants in residence. He suggested
an extension to the end of July.
Council President Lantry said the Council's desire to avoid displacing tenants in the
winter and before the holidays had resulted worsening conditions and the current
situation. She said property management company gave notice for June 30, and the
City was not responsible for the decisions of the tenants. She said great efforts were
made to give the tenants support in making the transition, but the temptation to grant
a little more time was tempered by the possibility of tragedy due to unsafe conditions.
She suggested one vote on items 114 - 117.
Councilmember Thune asked for clarification of what would happen if tenants were
still in residence on July 9.
DSI Director Ricardo Cervantes said inspectors would go out and ask for assistance
from police to remove anyone remaining.
Councilmember Thune said he still felt that after working on the issue this long, the
Council should grant an extension to July 31.
Councilmember Bostrom said he didn't think anything would be different on July 31.
Councilmember Brendmoen expressed concern about the City's liability should
something happen between July 9 and 31. She moved to deny the appeals.

104 Ordering the rehabilitation or razing and removal of the structures at
482 STINSON STREET within fifteen (15) days after the June 20,
2012, City Council Public Hearing. (Public hearing held June 20; laid
over from July 3)
Legislative Hearing Officer Marcia Moermond said HUD had not informed the buyer
(appellant) of the order to abate a nuisance building, and the appellant had begun
work on the property without pulling permits. She said her biggest concern was the
lack of an adequate work plan. She displayed a photo of the property, and said the
department estimate for rehabilitation was upwards of $75,000 She said given the
property owner's difficulty in meeting basic requirements, she was not confident the
rehabilitation could be completed successfully, and she recommended ordering
removal or repair within 15 days.
At Councilmember Carter's and Council President Lantry's request, Ms. Moermond
clarified that the house was a Category 3 vacant building and had an order to abate a
nuisance property at the time the appellant purchased it, and that information was not
disclosed by HUD.
In opposition:
Lionel Mendez, subcontractor, said they had completed 70% of repairs to the house,
and the only thing stopping them was that they couldn't get plumbing and and
electrical permits. He said they were asking for the opportunity to get permits so the
work could be completed. He said everything would be done to code. He provided
photographs.
Thomas Garcia, property owner, appeared and affirmed the points made by Mr.
Mendez.
Councilmember Carter moved to close the public hearing. Yeas - 6 Nays - 0
After consulting with Ms. Moermond, Councilmember Carter moved to lay the matter
over for two weeks to allow the owner time to provide more detailed bids and financial
information, and to have an inspector out to check work already done.
Public hearing held and closed; laid over to July 18

As first remedial action, a Code Compliance Inspection Report must be obtained from the

information at 651-266-8989.
If this building is located in a historic district or site (noted on page 1, above, just below the

proposal for the repairs required by this order and compliance with preservation guidelines.
Copies of the guidelines and design review application and forms are available from the

permits will be issued without HPC review and approval. HPC staff also can be reached by
calling 651-266-9078.
As an owner or responsible party, you are required by law to provide full and complete
disclosure of this "Order to Abate" to all interested parties, all present or subsequent renters and

until the Nuisance Conditions have been abated and the Certificate of Code Compliance or
Certificate of Occupancy has been issued.
The Enforcement Officer is required by law to post a placard on this property which declares it
to be a "nuisance condition", subject to demolition and removal by the City. This placard shall
not be removed without the written authority of the Department of Safety and Inspections,
Division of Code Enforcement. The department is further required to file a copy of this "Order
to Abate" with the City Clerk's Office.
If corrective action is not taken within the time specified in this order, the Enforcement Officer
will notify the City Council that abatement action is necessary. The City Clerk will then
schedule dates for Public Hearings before the City Council at which time testimony will be
heard from interested parties. After this hearing the City Council will adopt a resolution stating
what action if any, it deems appropriate.
If the resolution calls for abatement action the Council may either order the City to take the
abatement action or fix a time within which this nuisance must be abated in accordance with the
provisions of Chapter 33 of the Saint Paul Legislative Code and provide that if corrective action
is not taken within the specified time, the City shall abate this nuisance. The costs of this
action, including administrative costs will be assessed against the property as a special
assessment in accordance with law.

Subject:1759 Maryland temporary variance request
Attachments:Step photos.zip
Mai,
As a follow up to our discussion, my statement would be:
I do understand there is a crack in the steps on the side and there was some loose paint. I have scraped all the loose
paint, and the steps and railings are firmly in place with no loose parts, causing no hazards to anyone who uses them.
The property at 1759 Maryland is expected to be sold to a commercial developer along with 4 or 5 other properties on
this White Bear Ave, Maryland Ave corner. It is expected they will demolish the property in the next 6-9 months.
Due to the condition of the steps and railings being stable and the close timeframe of the property being torn down, I
request a temporary variance of 9 months on this item.
Pictures are attached.
Thank you
Art Anderkay

Repealing Chapter 367 of the Saint Paul Legislative Code pertaining to Tattoo Parlors.
Body
THE COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAINT PAUL DOES ORDAIN:
SECTION 1
Saint Paul Legislative Code chapter 367 has regulated tattoo parlors within the City since 1977.
In 2010, the Minnesota Legislature enacted Minnesota Statutes chapter 146B, which licenses and regulates
body art technicians and establishments statewide. Minnesota Statutes sections 146B.02 regulates body art
and tattoo establishments in the absence of City regulation that meets or exceeds state law. Minnesota
Statutes section 146B.03 preempts City regulation of body art and tattoo technicians. The state law regulates
the same risks to public health, safety and welfare addressed in Saint Paul Legislative Code chapter 367.
Because body art and tattoo technicians and establishments are comprehensively regulated under Minnesota
Statutes chapter 146B, Saint Paul Legislative Code chapter 367 is hereby repealed.
Chapter 367 of the Saint Paul Legislative Code is hereby repealed as follows:
Chapter 367. - Tattoo Parlors
Sec. 367.01. - Definitions.

partnership or corporation or change of a mailing address.
(2)
Director: The word "director" means the director of the department of safety and
inspections or his/her designated agent.
(3)
Tattooing: The word "tattooing" means and includes any method of placing designs,
letters, scrolls, figures, symbols, or any other marks upon or under the skin of a person
City of Saint Paul Printed on 8/14/2012Page 1 of 3
powered by Legistar™
File #: Ord 12-48, Version: 1
with ink or colors, by the aid of needles or instruments.
(4)
Person: The word "person" means and includes any individual, firm or corporation,
owner or operator of a tattooing establishment.
(5)
Remodel: The word "remodel" means any reconstruction, alteration or repair that
requires structural, plumbing, mechanical and/or electrical permits; changing the
location of walls; expanding the area of the facility; substantially changing or expanding
the character of the business. "Remodel" does not include replacing a piece of
equipment with a like piece of equipment; replacing wall, floor or ceiling finishes;
repositioning equipment; providing new equipment that does not significantly alter the
character of the business. The director shall have discretion in determining when this
section applies.
(Ord. No. 16357, § .01, 10-14-77; Ord. No. 03-895, § 1, 11-5-03; C.F. No. 07-149, § 116, 3-28-07)

Sec. 367.03. - Investigation and inspection.
(1)
It shall be the duty of the health officer to investigate the premises where tattooing is proposed
to be practiced, and if it shall appear to the director that the sanitary conditions prevailing upon
the premises comply with the provisions of this chapter and conform to the rules and
regulations promulgated by the director, the license application for the establishment shall be
approved.
(2)
Environmental plan review required. A person shall not begin to construct, remodel, or alter a
tattoo parlor until the director has reviewed and approved the plans and specifications required
by this subsection. The tattoo parlor shall be constructed and finished in conformance with the
approved plans. The director may inspect the tattoo parlor as frequently as deemed necessary
during construction to ensure that construction occurs in conformance with this chapter. The
director shall conduct a final inspection prior to the start of operations and issuance of an
approved license. If work has commenced prior to approval of plans when required, the director
may issue orders to halt the construction, extensive remodeling, expansion, or alteration, or
may issue orders, including demolition or removal, if reasonably necessary to determine
compliance with the standards of this chapter.
(3)

with the requirements of this chapter.
(Ord. No. 16357, § .03, 10-14-77; Ord. No. 03-895, § 2, 11-5-03)

Re: Appeal for property at 1114 Bush Avenue

Legislative Hearing Officer recommended that the City Council deny the appeal on the driveway
and grant 30 days for compliance; her recommendation on the fire rated floor is forthcoming.
Ms. Moermond requests that a diagram of the basement be submitted for her review.
This matter will be on the City Council Public Hearing Agenda on Wednesday, July 18, 2012 at
5:30 p.m. in Room 300 Council Chambers.

Per your request, the measurement of the basement on the captioned appeal is 15'x19'. The basement is listed as
"partial" per MLS and is incompleted. It is not livable. I have attached the MLS sheet for your convenience.
This property has two house numbers; 773 Franks St. N, and 1114 Bush Ave. It shares an "L-Shape" like
basement at the corner of Frank and Bush.
As you may know, this property was inspected by DSI's C of O annually. However, I was not able to pull up
any inspection reports dating back to 2002 that require fire rated floor and/or ceiling construction on the
basement as noted in Mr. Thomas's letter on May 30th.
I request that you grant a variance on this deficiency item, which is item #15 of Mr. Thomas's inspection report
for the following reasons:
1. This property shares two address with a "partial basement" that is unfinished.
2. It is not economicall and feasible to cover up the basement ceiling and floor in case of plumbing and
mechanical issues.
3. There were no correction orders on this deficiency item from 2002 to the present. Please produce a true
copy of such code(s) and appropriate date, if applicable.
Moreover, as a landowner and taxpaper, I would appreciate your assistance in having a dialogue with the C of O
Dept. about being consistented with their inspections, which is a big concern for me and my peers.

Despite a call to neighbor, Sharon Harper, assuring her that bushes, weeds, rank plant growth would be abated by
Monday, Ms. Vang has not done so. I am sending a work order to abate the nuisance today. I called Ms. Vang (651 274-

indicated she would try to get there ahead of crew.

6 Elizabeth St W. / 639 Humboldt Ave.
39” Boxelder marked as dangerous on the property line.
Letters sent: February 16th, 2012
Compliance date: February 27th, 2012
Mr. Patrick Mckenna called my office this morning at 10:26 am referring t o the
dangerous tree his property shares with 639 Humboldt Ave.
He was upset he was not notified first before the contractor for the City, St.Croix Tree
Service, showed up that morning to remove the tree since it was well past the deadline.
Mr. Mckenna stated that he tried to call to no avail “about 2 weeks ago” to see what was
going on with the tree. But I spoke with him when I marked the tree on February 11th and
he gave no indication that he was going to hire someone to remove it (he probably
wouldn’t anyway since it’s a property line tree). I said that since it is past the deadline, I
am allowed to have this tree abated to the low bidder on the tree (St. Croix) and I have no
obligation to make sure you are informed.
Mr. Mckenna demanded he know who made the complaint on the tree since he is friends
with the neighbor (rental property at 28 Elizabeth St. W.) whose garage sits under the
decayed, dangerous limbs. I said I did not know this at the time (it later turned out it was
an anonymous call.) He said that his neighbor didn’t call it in and said the tree is fine and
is not a nuisance to him. Mr. Mckenna believes there is no reason for the City to
condemn the tree if the neighbor does not think it is dangerous. I responded by saying
that I was called to inspect the tree and gave it to another Forestry staff person, Scott
Kruse, to conduct a second opinion which confirmed the tree needed to come down. The
City cannot reverse this decision and ignore the tree. The City would be liable if the tree
caused damage.
Mr. Mckenna asked how much this was going to cost him. I gave him a ballpark estimate
over the phone of around $530.00 including taxes and fees (it actually is estimated to be
$550.22). He said he will not pay any extra fees. I replied that he would be able to pay the
contractor directly if he wished. He then said that he couldn’t afford it right now and to
“put it on his taxes” and “my attorney and I will look it over.”
Mr. Mckenna is showing signs that he may refuse access to his yard in order to remove
the tree. He is afraid the ground will get damaged and he will be forced to require them to
“have a landscaping crew come and fix it.” I told him I would let the contractor know to
limit damage to the turf, but I told him in an e-mail Tuesday (3/13) morning that they
would need to access his yard but I would inform the contractor to enter from the
backyard of 639 Humboldt Ave. to position the bucket truck and other heavy machinery,
if possible.
On March 14th, St. Croix Tree Service called to let me know the only way to remove the
tree was from the backyard of 6 Elizabeth St. W. I arrived on-site to help convince Mr.
McKenna that they needed to access his yard. He reluctantly agreed.
Mr. McKenna was concerned that driving the large “bucket” truck onto his yard will
cause damage and said they would be responsible for fixing it to its original state. St.
Croix Tree Service laid down sheets of plywood to drive on to avoid damage to the yard.
There are pictures on file to show there was no damage to the yard or turf. I was on site to
make sure of this. Approximately 3 hours of my time was spent witnessing the job and
taking pictures.

As owner, agent or responsible party, you are hereby notified that if these deficiencies and the
resulting nuisance condition is not corrected by June 7, 2012 the Department of Safety and
Inspections, Division of Code Enforcement, will begin a substantial abatement process to
demolish and remove the building(s). The costs of this action, including administrative costs
and demolition costs will be assessed against the property taxes as a special assessment in
accordance with law.
As first remedial action, a Code Compliance Inspection Report must be obtained from the
Building Inspection and Design Section, 375 Jackson Street, Suite 220, (651) 266-8989. This
inspection will identify specific defects, necessary repairs and legal requirements to correct this
nuisance condition. You may also be required to post a five thousand dollar ($5,000.00)
performance bond with the Department of Safety and Inspections before any permits are issued,
except for a demolition permit. Call the Department of Safety and Inspections for more
information at 651-266-8989.
If this building is located in a historic district or site (noted on page 1, above, just below the
property address) then you must contact Heritage Preservation (HPC) staff to discuss your
proposal for the repairs required by this order and compliance with preservation guidelines.
Copies of the guidelines and design review application and forms are available from the
Department of Safety and Inspections web site (see letterhead) and from the HPC staff. No
permits will be issued without HPC review and approval. HPC staff also can be reached by
calling 651-266-9078.
As an owner or responsible party, you are required by law to provide full and complete
disclosure of this "Order to Abate" to all interested parties, all present or subsequent renters and
any subsequent owners. The property shall not be sold, transferred or conveyed in any manner
until the Nuisance Conditions have been abated and the Certificate of Code Compliance or
Certificate of Occupancy has been issued.
The Enforcement Officer is required by law to post a placard on this property which declares it
to be a "nuisance condition", subject to demolition and removal by the City. This placard shall
not be removed without the written authority of the Department of Safety and Inspections,
Division of Code Enforcement. The department is further required to file a copy of this "Order
to Abate" with the City Clerk's Office.
If corrective action is not taken within the time specified in this order, the Enforcement Officer
will notify the City Council that abatement action is necessary. The City Clerk will then
schedule dates for Public Hearings before the City Council at which time testimony will be
heard from interested parties. After this hearing the City Council will adopt a resolution stating
what action if any, it deems appropriate.
If the resolution calls for abatement action the Council may either order the City to take the
abatement action or fix a time within which this nuisance must be abated in accordance with the
provisions of Chapter 33 of the Saint Paul Legislative Code and provide that if corrective action
May 8, 2012

page 4
is not taken within the specified time, the City shall abate this nuisance. The costs of this
action, including administrative costs will be assessed against the property as a special
assessment in accordance with law.

Title
Appeal of Bill Bernier to a Fire Inspection Correction Notice at 287 PAGE STREET EAST.
Purpose of Appeal
The order for the removal, repair & rebuilding of the fallen part of the retaining wall belonging to the neighbor is
being appealed because this wall belongs to and exists for the sole benefit for the neighboring properties with
no benefit at all to my property. This wall was apparently built by these property owners so they would be able
to build sheds up to the very back inch of their lots. These sheds--one of which is gone--were also built
without regard to the proper rear set back requirements and, therefore, needs to be moved.

accordance with law.
As first remedial action, a Code Compliance Inspection Report must be obtained from the

inspection will identify specific defects, necessary repairs and legal requirements to correct this

performance bond with the Department of Safety and Inspections before any permits are issued,
except for a demolition permit. Call the Department of Safety and Inspections for more

If this building is located in a historic district or site (noted on page 1, above, just below the
property address) then you must contact Heritage Preservation (HPC) staff to discuss your
proposal for the repairs required by this order and compliance with preservation guidelines.
Copies of the guidelines and design review application and forms are available from the
Department of Safety and Inspections web site (see letterhead) and from the HPC staff. No
permits will be issued without HPC review and approval. HPC staff also can be reached by
calling 651-266-9078.
As an owner or responsible party, you are required by law to provide full and complete
disclosure of this "Order to Abate" to all interested parties, all present or subsequent renters and
any subsequent owners. The property shall not be sold, transferred or conveyed in any manner
until the Nuisance Conditions have been abated and the Certificate of Code Compliance or
Certificate of Occupancy has been issued.
The Enforcement Officer is required by law to post a placard on this property which declares it
to be a "nuisance condition", subject to demolition and removal by the City. This placard shall
not be removed without the written authority of the Department of Safety and Inspections,
Division of Code Enforcement. The department is further required to file a copy of this "Order
to Abate" with the City Clerk's Office.

If corrective action is not taken within the time specified in this order, the Enforcement Officer
will notify the City Council that abatement action is necessary. The City Clerk will then
schedule dates for Public Hearings before the City Council at which time testimony will be
heard from interested parties. After this hearing the City Council will adopt a resolution stating
what action if any, it deems appropriate.
If the resolution calls for abatement action the Council may either order the City to take the
abatement action or fix a time within which this nuisance must be abated in accordance with the
provisions of Chapter 33 of the Saint Paul Legislative Code and provide that if corrective action
is not taken within the specified time, the City shall abate this nuisance. The costs of this
action, including administrative costs will be assessed against the property as a special
assessment in accordance with law.

accordance with law.
As first remedial action, a Code Compliance Inspection Report must be obtained from the

inspection will identify specific defects, necessary repairs and legal requirements to correct this

performance bond with the Department of Safety and Inspections before any permits are issued,
except for a demolition permit. Call the Department of Safety and Inspections for more
information at 651-266-8989.
If this building is located in a historic district or site (noted on page 1, above, just below the
property address) then you must contact Heritage Preservation (HPC) staff to discuss your
proposal for the repairs required by this order and compliance with preservation guidelines.
Copies of the guidelines and design review application and forms are available from the

As an owner or responsible party, you are required by law to provide full and complete
disclosure of this "Order to Abate" to all interested parties, all present or subsequent renters and

Certificate of Occupancy has been issued.
The Enforcement Officer is required by law to post a placard on this property which declares it
to be a "nuisance condition", subject to demolition and removal by the City. This placard shall
not be removed without the written authority of the Department of Safety and Inspections,
Division of Code Enforcement. The department is further required to file a copy of this "Order
to Abate" with the City Clerk's Office.
If corrective action is not taken within the time specified in this order, the Enforcement Officer

schedule dates for Public Hearings before the City Council at which time testimony will be
heard from interested parties. After this hearing the City Council will adopt a resolution stating
what action if any, it deems appropriate.
If the resolution calls for abatement action the Council may either order the City to take the
abatement action or fix a time within which this nuisance must be abated in accordance with the
provisions of Chapter 33 of the Saint Paul Legislative Code and provide that if corrective action
is not taken within the specified time, the City shall abate this nuisance. The costs of this
action, including administrative costs will be assessed against the property as a special

Inspections, Division of Code Enforcement, will begin a substantial abatement process to demolish
and remove the building(s). The costs of this action, including administrative costs and demolition
costs will be assessed against the property taxes as a special assessment in accordance with law.
As first remedial action, a Code Compliance Inspection Report must be obtained from the Building
Inspection and Design Section, 375 Jackson Street, Suite 220, (651) 266-8989. This inspection will
identify specific defects, necessary repairs and legal requirements to correct this nuisance condition.
You may also be required to post a five thousand dollar ($5,000.00) performance bond with the
Department of Safety and Inspections before any permits are issued, except for a demolition permit.
Call the Department of Safety and Inspections for more information at 651-266-8989.
If this building is located in a historic district or site (noted on page 1, above, just below the
property address) then you must contact Heritage Preservation (HPC) staff to discuss your proposal
for the repairs required by this order and compliance with preservation guidelines. Copies of the
guidelines and design review application and forms are available from the Department of Safety and

As an owner or responsible party, you are required by law to provide full and complete disclosure
of this "Order to Abate" to all interested parties, all present or subsequent renters and any
subsequent owners. The property shall not be sold, transferred or conveyed in any manner until the
Nuisance Conditions have been abated and the Certificate of Code Compliance or Certificate of
Occupancy has been issued.
The Enforcement Officer is required by law to post a placard on this property which declares it to
be a "nuisance condition", subject to demolition and removal by the City. This placard shall not be
removed without the written authority of the Department of Safety and Inspections, Division of
Code Enforcement. The department is further required to file a copy of this "Order to Abate" with
the City Clerk's Office.
If corrective action is not taken within the time specified in this order, the Enforcement Officer will
notify the City Council that abatement action is necessary. The City Clerk will then schedule dates
for Public Hearings before the City Council at which time testimony will be heard from interested
parties. After this hearing the City Council will adopt a resolution stating what action if any, it
deems appropriate.
If the resolution calls for abatement action the Council may either order the City to take the
abatement action or fix a time within which this nuisance must be abated in accordance with the
provisions of Chapter 33 of the Saint Paul Legislative Code and provide that if corrective action is

Re: Order to Remove or Repair at 435 Thomas Avenue
Dear Mr. Busch:
This is to confirm that on July 10, 2012 at the Legislative Hearing, Marcia Moermond,
Legislative Hearing Officer recommended that the following conditions be met by the close of
business on July 23 if you intent to rehabilitate the building:
1. post the $5,000 performance bond;
2. obtain a new code compliance inspection;
3. provide financial documentation indicating the amount required for this rehabilitation; this
could be a construction loan, a line of credit or a bank statement;
4. provide an affidavit dedicating the funds for the project;
5. provide a work plan, including timelines, which needs to be done in accordance with the
code compliance inspection report;
6. de-conversion of the duplex to a single-family dwelling; and
7. the property must be maintained.
The matter is continued to Tuesday, July 24, 2012 at 9:00 a.m. in Room 330 City Hall to
address these conditions.
The City Council public hearing is scheduled for Wednesday, August 1, 2012 at 5:30 p.m. in

435 Thomas Ave. is a Cat. 3 duplex owned by David Busch, under his company name: DRB #24 LLC. It is located in a
single-family zoning district and has had a legal nonconforming zoning status. Per the City's zoning code, that status
expires after a year of discontinuance of use. It became a Vacant Building on August 23, 2007. On April 23, 2009, Mr.
Busch was approved by DSI (under the "Bostrom Ordinance" approval requirements) to buy this property. Although it
had been vacant longer than a year, at that time DSI's policy was to allow a continuation of the nonconforming use if the
zoning administrator determined that there was "no intention to abandon the property." That determination was made
on April 23, 2009 (see the attached letter, signed by Karen Zacho).
On May 13, 2009, Wendy Lane, DSI's Zoning Manager, issued a memorandum (attached)establishing a new policy
regarding nonconforming structures which have had their legal status expire. There would no longer be zoning
administrator determinations made concerning whether or not there was an "intention to abandon property." The new
policy required that after a year of discontinuance of use, a nonconforming property must either be converted to a
conforming use or Planning Commission approval must be obtained to reestablish the nonconforming use.
Because Mr. Busch was approved to rehabilitate 435 Thomas under the previous policy allowing continuation of the
duplex use because of a determination that there was no intention to abandon, Wendy Lane's implementation of a new
zoning policy did not impact this property at that time. However, there was a presumption that Mr. Busch would
proceed with the rehabilitation in a timely manner. Attached is a signed and notarized statement from Mr. Busch, dated
April 7, 2009, affirming his intention to complete all of the Code Compliance required repairs by September 31,
2009. Because he did not complete the repairs in a timely manner, Wendy Lane has stipulated that this property must
now either be converted to a single-family dwelling or Planning Commission approval must be obtained to allow a future
duplex use.
