Title
Reconsidering enforcement of Council File No. RLH RR 13-48, an Order to Raze or Remove the structures at 521 EDMUND AVENUE.
Body
A public hearing was held on December 4, 2013, December 18, 2013, January 15, 2014, January 22, 2014 and March 19, 2014 in the matter of Order to Remove or Repair the Structures at 521 Edmund Avenue, the Saint Paul Council granted 15 days for the razing and removal of the building(s) at this property since no one appeared.
The owner is requesting to reconsider the issue since now they are in possession of the property and can make necessary repairs; therefore, the legislative hearing officer has scheduled a legislative hearing for May 27, 2013 to consider Bank of America's request to be granted time for the rehabilitation of the property.
The Legislative Hearing Office has indicated to Bank of America representatives the following conditions will need to be met by owner prior to legislative hearing:
1. obtain a code compliance inspection through the City's Department of Safety and Inspections (DSI); and
2. a $5,000 performance deposit must be posted with the Department of Safety and Inspections - this deposit will be returned with interest if the rehabilitation is completed within the time granted;
If it is found these conditions are met, a resolution granting a stay in the implementation of 521 Edmund Avenue will be forwarded for Council consideration and approval.
