notified the heaith inspector that the peopie flving in the house had been evicted. Before the

On Aagast 3 they were stitl in the house. He cleaned up the garbage that was outside, hauled
9 tires away, and put the other tires in the basement stairwell. The remaining property
belonged to the tenants and by law he could not touch it. On the morning of August 11 before

was cleaned up by the city. Mr. Stoltenburg responded that he picked up the garbage on the
back porch and put it iu the trash cans by the alley. He was told by the tenants not to touch the
sofas on the porch because it was their properry and they were taking them. By law he could
not touch them.
Mr. Sirathman stated that the sofas on the &ont porch probably could not have been removed
since the tenantc claimed it was their property, but the rest of the clean up could have been
taken care o£ He recommended redacing the assessment to $340,

issued and the city has had to secure the building. The building regisiration fees are uupaid,
and real estate talces are uupaid in the amount of $19,800. Code Enforcement inspectors
estimate the amou� of mo�y �eded to properly repair this shucture makes this reLabilitation
project uniikely and not economically feasible. The estimated cost to demolish is $5,900.
No one appeared.

Mr. Strathamn recommended approval.
4. Resotudon ordering the owner to remove or repair the referenced building Iocated at
1383 Arsade Str�t. If the owner fails to comply with the resolution, Public Heaith is
ordered to remove the building.
Chuck YoteI reported that the building has been vacant since January I995. The current
properry owner is Valvoli� Oil Company. The owner has been involved in �gotiations with
potentiai buyers of the properry. There have been 4 summary abateme� notices issued,
registration fees are paid, and taxes aze paid. As of April 15, 1997 a Certificate of Occupaney
has not beea applied for a� the $2,OOQ.00 ba� has not been posted. They are uoahie to
estimate a cost to repair this building since it is wmmercial use. Cost to demolish is
approximately $10,000.
Bernar@ Mordorski appeared and stated thai he has beea �gofiating with Valvoline for the last
year to purchase the pmperry. They had several banks lined up that were willing to finance the
pmperry and they could have been in there last August or September if they could have gotten
the approvat from tfie city's end. They also worked with We Eastside Neighborhood
Developement. In May of last year, Kim Hunter supposedly gave approval for a$50,000 loan
guarantee. At that time, they were with Signal Bank and ready to close. All they were
waiting for was their conditional use permit, which was filed for and obtained in 7uly. When
they came to close after the first of June, they found that Kim Hunter no longer worked for the
Fastside Neighborhood Development and they had to start the process all over again. He
presented a copy of the offer to purcbase, a letter from Rapid Oil Change extending their
purchase agreement extending tfirough Apri130, and a copy of a letter from Lake Elmo Bank
affirming the loan. They are planning to close on the ihe bvilding Apri130. If the city
demolishes the building, he will be out the $8,000 he's invested because he is not going to buy
an empty lot.
Mr. Strathman asked how long it would take to get the building inio shape? Mr. Mordorsld
responded tbat he plans to be in the building and operating within a week to 10 days after
closing on the properry. His plans for the building aze quite extensive as far as the appearance
of the building.
A representative from the Wheelock/Sherwood/Cottage Blcek Club submitted a copy of a letter
addressed to Councilmember Bostrom from the block ciub and petitions signed by residents
over the past 2 years for mimerous people that had wa�ed to acquire the properry and rehab it.
Last spring they met with Mr. Mordorski and he was supposediy going to acquire the praperty,
rehabilitate it, and move in within a short period of time. The property has deteriorated, the
walks weten't shoveted, the tawn hasn't been mowed, plumbing fixdues were laying out in the
pazking lot for a number of months, the fence was vandalized and laying in the a11ey behind the
properry for several months. Now they have a possible health hazard with the toilets being
removed, and open waste pipes Ieading into the ground. Nothing has been do� because
,J
8
��_�s�
� Vavoline hasn't taken care of the property. At this poi�, they are looking at letting the
demolition go through, they fcel that would be in the best interest.
Jeff Anderson, adjacent business neighbor, s� that the building has gotten worse over the
last couple of years. He operates a mortuary and just having tUat eyesore is something tUat
constandy bothers them. Restroom doors, fence, the building needs a lot of work if anything
is going to be done to it. They contacted the real estate people a couple of times expressing
interest in purcbasing the property for a parldng lot.
Mr. Strathman stated that at this point, the problem appears to be with Valvoline who is the
cunent ovvner and hasn't met their responsibilities as a properry owner. Given the fact that
there is a perspective owner who ciearly seems to have the financing w do the work that needs
to be done, he recommended approval and amended the date for repair or removal of the
structure to 60 days.
Resolution ordering the owner to remove or repair We refereaced building located at
�ZI� A��e. If the owner fails to comply with the resolufion, Public Health is
ordered to remove the building.
Chuck Votel reviewed the staff report stating tl�at the property was condemned on April 1996.
The current properry owner Victor Sclileiss consents to the City demolishing the strucnue
because they don't think iYs economically feasible to rehabilitate it. The registration fees ue
paid, on August 6, 1996 the compliance inspection was done. The code enforcement inspector
didn't estimate the amount of money needed to repair the building because they don't think iYs
likely nor feasible. The cost to demolish is estimated at $8,400.
John Miller, attorney for Knutson Mortgage Company, stated that they hold the mortgage on
the properry and it is their position that the building is not capable of being rehabilitated. The
mortgage is current and have not commenced foreclosure proceedings. They would like the
opportunity to have 45 days in order to attempt to make arrangement with Mr. Schleiss to get a
deed in lieu of foreciosure wlrich would preserve Knutson's abIlity to then tender the property
back to HUD.
Mr. Votel stated that they did have to issue notice in Mazch to secure a front entry door, but it
is not a building that creates a lot of probiems.
Mr. Strathman recommended approval and amended the date for repair or removal of the
structure to 45 days.

notified the heaith inspector that the peopie flving in the house had been evicted. Before the
appeal period expired, he again notified the inspector tbat the tenants were still in the house.

On Aagast 3 they were stitl in the house. He cleaned up the garbage that was outside, hauled
9 tires away, and put the other tires in the basement stairwell. The remaining property
belonged to the tenants and by law he could not touch it. On the morning of August 11 before
he went on vacation, he weni over to the property and the tenants were still there. When he
got back from vacation a week later, the city crews had done the ciean up.
Chuck Votel, Pab2ic Heatth, showed a video af the properry and reviewed the staff report.

was cleaned up by the city. Mr. Stoltenburg responded that he picked up the garbage on the
back porch and put it iu the trash cans by the alley. He was told by the tenants not to touch the
sofas on the porch because it was their properry and they were taking them. By law he could
not touch them.
Mr. Sirathman stated that the sofas on the &ont porch probably could not have been removed
since the tenantc claimed it was their property, but the rest of the clean up could have been
taken care o£ He recommended redacing the assessment to $340,

2. Resolution ordering the owner to remove or repair the referenced building, located at
S87 Strvker Avenue. If the owner fails to comply with the resolution, Public Health is
ordered to remove the building.
John McGovern and John Sadawski appeared. Mr. McGovem stated that they have a purchase
agreement from HUB to close on the properry in eariy May. A bond has been posted, permits
I�ave been pulled, and they have insurance. Weather permitting, they glan to complete the
rehab work within 3 months.
Mr. Votel noted that the vacant building fee is paid by HIJD at closing.
Mr. Strathman reported that he received wmmunication &om HUD indicating that they are
selling the property to Mr. McGodvem. A letter was received from WESCO stating that they
haven't yet reviewed the latest proposai. He recommended approval and amended the date for
repair or removai of the structure to 180 days.
Mr. Votel noted that a certified resolution will be sern to the property owner at 5944 13th
Avenue So., Mpls. 55417.
3. Resolution ordering the owner to remove or repair the referenced building located at
578 Forest Street If the owner fails to comply with the resolution, Public Aealth is
ordered to remove the building.
Chuck Votel reviewed the staff report stating that the building has been condemned since 1996
by Pubiic Heaith. The current properry owners are Roger and Mary Clazk; financial problems
have prevented them from rehabilitating the properry. S�mmary abatemeni notices have been
issued and the city has had to secure the building. The building regisiration fees are uupaid,
and real estate talces are uupaid in the amount of $19,800. Code Enforcement inspectors
estimate the amou� of mo�y �eded to properly repair this shucture makes this reLabilitation
project uniikely and not economically feasible. The estimated cost to demolish is $5,900.
No one appeared.

���`��� '
Mr. Strathamn recommended approval.
4. Resotudon ordering the owner to remove or repair the referenced building Iocated at
1383 Arsade Str�t. If the owner fails to comply with the resolution, Public Heaith is
ordered to remove the building.
Chuck YoteI reported that the building has been vacant since January I995. The current
properry owner is Valvoli� Oil Company. The owner has been involved in �gotiations with
potentiai buyers of the properry. There have been 4 summary abateme� notices issued,
registration fees are paid, and taxes aze paid. As of April 15, 1997 a Certificate of Occupaney
has not beea applied for a� the $2,OOQ.00 ba� has not been posted. They are uoahie to
estimate a cost to repair this building since it is wmmercial use. Cost to demolish is
approximately $10,000.
Bernar@ Mordorski appeared and stated thai he has beea �gofiating with Valvoline for the last
year to purchase the pmperry. They had several banks lined up that were willing to finance the
pmperry and they could have been in there last August or September if they could have gotten
the approvat from tfie city's end. They also worked with We Eastside Neighborhood
Developement. In May of last year, Kim Hunter supposedly gave approval for a$50,000 loan
guarantee. At that time, they were with Signal Bank and ready to close. All they were
waiting for was their conditional use permit, which was filed for and obtained in 7uly. When
they came to close after the first of June, they found that Kim Hunter no longer worked for the
Fastside Neighborhood Development and they had to start the process all over again. He
presented a copy of the offer to purcbase, a letter from Rapid Oil Change extending their
purchase agreement extending tfirough Apri130, and a copy of a letter from Lake Elmo Bank
affirming the loan. They are planning to close on the ihe bvilding Apri130. If the city
demolishes the building, he will be out the $8,000 he's invested because he is not going to buy
an empty lot.
Mr. Strathman asked how long it would take to get the building inio shape? Mr. Mordorsld
responded tbat he plans to be in the building and operating within a week to 10 days after
closing on the properry. His plans for the building aze quite extensive as far as the appearance
of the building.
A representative from the Wheelock/Sherwood/Cottage Blcek Club submitted a copy of a letter
addressed to Councilmember Bostrom from the block ciub and petitions signed by residents
over the past 2 years for mimerous people that had wa�ed to acquire the properry and rehab it.
Last spring they met with Mr. Mordorski and he was supposediy going to acquire the praperty,
rehabilitate it, and move in within a short period of time. The property has deteriorated, the
walks weten't shoveted, the tawn hasn't been mowed, plumbing fixdues were laying out in the
pazking lot for a number of months, the fence was vandalized and laying in the a11ey behind the
properry for several months. Now they have a possible health hazard with the toilets being
removed, and open waste pipes Ieading into the ground. Nothing has been do� because
,J
8
��_�s�
� Vavoline hasn't taken care of the property. At this poi�, they are looking at letting the
demolition go through, they fcel that would be in the best interest.
Jeff Anderson, adjacent business neighbor, s� that the building has gotten worse over the
last couple of years. He operates a mortuary and just having tUat eyesore is something tUat
constandy bothers them. Restroom doors, fence, the building needs a lot of work if anything
is going to be done to it. They contacted the real estate people a couple of times expressing
interest in purcbasing the property for a parldng lot.
Mr. Strathman stated that at this point, the problem appears to be with Valvoline who is the
cunent ovvner and hasn't met their responsibilities as a properry owner. Given the fact that
there is a perspective owner who ciearly seems to have the financing w do the work that needs
to be done, he recommended approval and amended the date for repair or removal of the
structure to 60 days.
Resolution ordering the owner to remove or repair We refereaced building located at
�ZI� A��e. If the owner fails to comply with the resolufion, Public Health is
ordered to remove the building.
Chuck Votel reviewed the staff report stating tl�at the property was condemned on April 1996.
The current properry owner Victor Sclileiss consents to the City demolishing the strucnue
because they don't think iYs economically feasible to rehabilitate it. The registration fees ue
paid, on August 6, 1996 the compliance inspection was done. The code enforcement inspector
didn't estimate the amount of money needed to repair the building because they don't think iYs
likely nor feasible. The cost to demolish is estimated at $8,400.
John Miller, attorney for Knutson Mortgage Company, stated that they hold the mortgage on
the properry and it is their position that the building is not capable of being rehabilitated. The
mortgage is current and have not commenced foreclosure proceedings. They would like the
opportunity to have 45 days in order to attempt to make arrangement with Mr. Schleiss to get a
deed in lieu of foreciosure wlrich would preserve Knutson's abIlity to then tender the property
back to HUD.
Mr. Votel stated that they did have to issue notice in Mazch to secure a front entry door, but it
is not a building that creates a lot of probiems.
Mr. Strathman recommended approval and amended the date for repair or removal of the
structure to 45 days.

John Stoltenburg, properry owner, appeared and stated that when he received the notice, he
notified the heaith inspector that the peopie flving in the house had been evicted. Before the
appeal period expired, he again notified the inspector tbat the tenants were still in the house.
The inspector issued condemnauon proceedings and the tenants were to be out by August 1.
On Aagast 3 they were stitl in the house. He cleaned up the garbage that was outside, hauled
9 tires away, and put the other tires in the basement stairwell. The remaining property
belonged to the tenants and by law he could not touch it. On the morning of August 11 before
he went on vacation, he weni over to the property and the tenants were still there. When he
got back from vacation a week later, the city crews had done the ciean up.
Chuck Votel, Pab2ic Heatth, showed a video af the properry and reviewed the staff report.
The city condemned the lower unit of the building for building and housing code violations. A
summary abatement was issued, posted at the property, and mailed to Mr. Stoltenburg on 7uly
25. R'hen the property was rechecked on Augvst 2, the work had not been done. Ii was
further rechecked on August 12, the work order was sent to the Parks Department and on
August 14 the city cleaned it up. The properry has a long history of similar problems.
Mr. Stratbman asked the appellant to explain his reason for not cieaning up the material that
was cleaned up by the city. Mr. Stoltenburg responded that he picked up the garbage on the
back porch and put it iu the trash cans by the alley. He was told by the tenants not to touch the
sofas on the porch because it was their properry and they were taking them. By law he could
not touch them.
Mr. Sirathman stated that the sofas on the &ont porch probably could not have been removed
since the tenantc claimed it was their property, but the rest of the clean up could have been
taken care o£ He recommended redacing the assessment to $340,

the property, but there was an excessive amount of appliances wlrich is not allowed in a
residential area. The inspector talked to the pmperry owner a couple of times and extensions

Irvin Rosenbium, properry owner, appeazed and stated tUat the same day the letter was sent, he
also received a phone call. He had been there that morning and shoveled the walk wide
enough for two people w walk side-by-side. The properry is not occupied, he was aware that

and real estate talces are uupaid in the amount of $19,800. Code Enforcement inspectors
estimate the amou� of mo�y �eded to properly repair this shucture makes this reLabilitation
project uniikely and not economically feasible. The estimated cost to demolish is $5,900.
No one appeared.

Mr. Strathamn recommended approval.
4. Resotudon ordering the owner to remove or repair the referenced building Iocated at
1383 Arsade Str�t. If the owner fails to comply with the resolution, Public Heaith is
ordered to remove the building.
Chuck YoteI reported that the building has been vacant since January I995. The current
properry owner is Valvoli� Oil Company. The owner has been involved in �gotiations with
potentiai buyers of the properry. There have been 4 summary abateme� notices issued,
registration fees are paid, and taxes aze paid. As of April 15, 1997 a Certificate of Occupaney
has not beea applied for a� the $2,OOQ.00 ba� has not been posted. They are uoahie to
estimate a cost to repair this building since it is wmmercial use. Cost to demolish is
approximately $10,000.
Bernar@ Mordorski appeared and stated thai he has beea �gofiating with Valvoline for the last
year to purchase the pmperry. They had several banks lined up that were willing to finance the
pmperry and they could have been in there last August or September if they could have gotten
the approvat from tfie city's end. They also worked with We Eastside Neighborhood
Developement. In May of last year, Kim Hunter supposedly gave approval for a$50,000 loan
guarantee. At that time, they were with Signal Bank and ready to close. All they were
waiting for was their conditional use permit, which was filed for and obtained in 7uly. When
they came to close after the first of June, they found that Kim Hunter no longer worked for the
Fastside Neighborhood Development and they had to start the process all over again. He
presented a copy of the offer to purcbase, a letter from Rapid Oil Change extending their
purchase agreement extending tfirough Apri130, and a copy of a letter from Lake Elmo Bank
affirming the loan. They are planning to close on the ihe bvilding Apri130. If the city
demolishes the building, he will be out the $8,000 he's invested because he is not going to buy
an empty lot.
Mr. Strathman asked how long it would take to get the building inio shape? Mr. Mordorsld
responded tbat he plans to be in the building and operating within a week to 10 days after
closing on the properry. His plans for the building aze quite extensive as far as the appearance
of the building.
A representative from the Wheelock/Sherwood/Cottage Blcek Club submitted a copy of a letter
addressed to Councilmember Bostrom from the block ciub and petitions signed by residents
over the past 2 years for mimerous people that had wa�ed to acquire the properry and rehab it.
Last spring they met with Mr. Mordorski and he was supposediy going to acquire the praperty,
rehabilitate it, and move in within a short period of time. The property has deteriorated, the
walks weten't shoveted, the tawn hasn't been mowed, plumbing fixdues were laying out in the
pazking lot for a number of months, the fence was vandalized and laying in the a11ey behind the
properry for several months. Now they have a possible health hazard with the toilets being
removed, and open waste pipes Ieading into the ground. Nothing has been do� because
,J
8
��_�s�
� Vavoline hasn't taken care of the property. At this poi�, they are looking at letting the
demolition go through, they fcel that would be in the best interest.
Jeff Anderson, adjacent business neighbor, s� that the building has gotten worse over the
last couple of years. He operates a mortuary and just having tUat eyesore is something tUat
constandy bothers them. Restroom doors, fence, the building needs a lot of work if anything
is going to be done to it. They contacted the real estate people a couple of times expressing
interest in purcbasing the property for a parldng lot.
Mr. Strathman stated that at this point, the problem appears to be with Valvoline who is the
cunent ovvner and hasn't met their responsibilities as a properry owner. Given the fact that
there is a perspective owner who ciearly seems to have the financing w do the work that needs
to be done, he recommended approval and amended the date for repair or removal of the
structure to 60 days.
Resolution ordering the owner to remove or repair We refereaced building located at
�ZI� A��e. If the owner fails to comply with the resolufion, Public Health is
ordered to remove the building.
Chuck Votel reviewed the staff report stating tl�at the property was condemned on April 1996.
The current properry owner Victor Sclileiss consents to the City demolishing the strucnue
because they don't think iYs economically feasible to rehabilitate it. The registration fees ue
paid, on August 6, 1996 the compliance inspection was done. The code enforcement inspector
didn't estimate the amount of money needed to repair the building because they don't think iYs
likely nor feasible. The cost to demolish is estimated at $8,400.
John Miller, attorney for Knutson Mortgage Company, stated that they hold the mortgage on
the properry and it is their position that the building is not capable of being rehabilitated. The
mortgage is current and have not commenced foreclosure proceedings. They would like the
opportunity to have 45 days in order to attempt to make arrangement with Mr. Schleiss to get a
deed in lieu of foreciosure wlrich would preserve Knutson's abIlity to then tender the property
back to HUD.
Mr. Votel stated that they did have to issue notice in Mazch to secure a front entry door, but it
is not a building that creates a lot of probiems.
Mr. Strathman recommended approval and amended the date for repair or removal of the
structure to 45 days.
