Minneapolis; Mn 55418 January 14, 1977 0 Re: Apartment Repair at 6503 East River Road; Dear Mr. Job: According to our records, you are the owner of the apartment building located at 6503 East River Road. As you are aware, one of the units in the structure was damaged by a fire on the 29th of December, 1976. On January 12, 1977 it was reported to us by you, that the water system in another unit had frozen. Section 209.17 of the City Code, as well as Minnesota State Statute, Section 463.15, requires the living units be safe and healthy, and in both of the uni_ the extent of the damage does render them inhabitable. Therefore, you .are hereby ordered to bring both units up to the present codes. The one with the water system failure must be repaired by January 2.1, 1977, and the other unit can not be reoccupied until it too has been rc,:ired to the present City Code. There are a couple of complications in this matter that I spoke to you about on the 12th of January. First, your building is, according to our City Cod:, nonconforming because of its location on the property (too close to East River Road). This then means that you would not be allowed by the City of Fridley to make repairs to the structure within any 12 month period that would exceed 50% of its fair market value. For your information our City assessor's market value of your building prior to the fire was about $22,000. This then means if the total of all repairs necessary to bring your building habitable exceeds $11,000, the City will not issue any permits or allow you to do any work, and we would then have to recommend to the City Council that your license to operate the apartment building be revoked. We would want at least three bonifide estimates on the repair work to determine the extent of the repair costs. If you have any questions with reference to this, please feel free to call me at 571-3450. nc`e5e1y, j DC/de D RREL CLARK cc: City Attorney Community Development Administrator wick Sobiech - Ron Holden Bill Sandin Leonard Eichmiller DIVISION OF STATE FIRE MARSHAL 1246 UNIVERSITY AVENUE ST.

Fridley, Mn. 55421 Re: 6503 East River Road N.E. Dear Mr. Job: TELEPHONE ( 612)571-3450 This is to confirm our conversation of January 11, 1978. As you know, the City has been refraining from starting "dangerous building" action against the structure located at 6503 East River Read (Lots 22, 23, and 24, Block 6, Fridley Park). We have been waiting for your decision to either tear it down or try to sustain evidence that would indicate that it is not. On January 11, 1978 you stated that you have decided that you are definitely going to tear the structure down and will complete the project on or before July 1, 1978. This seems reasonable, therefore we will not start "dangerous building" action against it, however, in the meantime, please make sure the structure is properly secured so that the general public can not gain entrance. If you have any questions concerning this matter, please contact me at 571-3450. Sincerely, oaute k"L DARREL G. CLARK Community Development Adm. DGC/mh 463.06 BUILDING LINE EASEMENTS; BUILDING REGULATIONS 5632 The term "governing body" is used in sections 463.04 to 463.07 to designate the appropriate body in any given case, whether the city council, or board of park com- missioners. The governing body shall first designate the easement to be acquired and define the lines by which it is bounded, and shall have power to condemn for the use of the public a building line easement as defined above, and when such condemnation shall have been completed, as in this section provided, the title to such easement shall pass to and be vested in the city for the public use. For the purpose of making the condemnation all the tracts of land required for any improvement may be included in the same proceeding. No such easement shall include or take in any portion of a private residence ex- isting at the time of the passage of sections 463.01 to 463.07 excepting by purchase or grant.

As soon as such condemnation proceedings have been com- pleted, it shall be the duty of such governing body to cause plats of such improvement to be made, which shall be copies of the original plat on file, with a list of the parcels of land taken and the amount paid on account of each parcel, and to file one of such plats and list duly certified by the president of the governing body and the clerk or secretary, as the case may be, in each of the following offices: The office of the city engineer, the office of the county recorder of the county, and the office of the city clerk or secretary of the park board, as the case may be; and the same shall be prima facie evidence of the full and complete condemnation and appropriation of such ease- ment for the public use. As soon as the assessments are confirmed, the secretary of the board of park commissioners or the city clerk, or the clerk of the district court, as the case may be, shall transmit a copy thereof duly certified, to the county auditor of the county in which the lands lie. The county auditor shall include the same in the next general tax list for the collection of state, county and city taxes, against the sev- eral tracts or parcels of land, and the assessments shall be collected with and as a part of, and shall be subject to the same penalties, costs and interest, as the general taxes. Such assessments shall be set down in the tax books in an appropriate column to be headed, "Building Line Assessments," and when collected a separate account thereof shall be kept by the county auditor, and the same shall be transmitted to the treasurer of the city, and placed to the credit of the proper fund. 1903 c 194 s 6, 1919 c 504 s 8; 1976 c 181 s 2 ] (1321-6) 463.07 VACATION OF EASEMENT.

If a judgment is not complied with in the time prescribed, the governing body may cause the building to be repaired, razed, or removed or the hazardous condition to be removed or corrected as set forth in the judgment, or acquire the building and real estate on which the building or hazardous condition is located by eminent domain as provided in section 463.152. The cost of such repairs, razing, or removal shall be a lien against the real estate on which the building is located or the hazardous condition exists and may be levied and collected only as a special assessment in the manner provided by Minnesota Statutes 1961, Sec- tions 429.061 to 429.081, but the assessment shall be payable in a single installment.

Thereupon the court shall examine, correct, if necessary, and allow the expense account, and, if the amount received from the sale of the salvage, or of the building or structure, does not equal or exceed the amount of expenses as allowed, the court shall by its judgment certify the deficiency in the amount so allowed to the municipal clerk for collection. The owner or other party in interest shall pay the same, without penalty added thereon, and in default of payment by October 1, the clerk shall certify the amount of the expense to the county auditor for entry on the tax lists of the county as a special charge against the real estate on which the building is or was situated and the same shall be collected in the same manner as other taxes and the amount so collected shall be paid into the municipal treasury. If the amount received for the sale of the salvage or of the building or structure exceeds the expense incurred by the municipality as al- lowed by the court, and if there are no delinquent taxes, the court shall direct the pay- ment of the surplus to the owner or the payment of the same into court, as provided in sections 463.15 to 463.26.

The clerk of the court shall cause a ` copy of the judgment to be mailed forthwith to persons upon whom the original order was served. 1965c3913s5] `- 453.20 CONTESTED CASES. If an answer is filed and served as provided in section 463.18, further proceedings in the action shall be governed by the rules of civil procedure for the district courts, except that the action has priority over all pending civil actions and shall be tried forthwith. If the order is sustained following the trial, the court shall enter judgment and shall fix a time after which the building shall be destroyed or repaired, as the case may be, in compliance with the order as originally filed or modified by the court. If the order is not sustained, it shall be annulled and set aside. The clerk of the court shall cause a copy of the judgment to be mailed forthwith to the persons upon whom the original order was served. [ 1965c393s6] 463.21 ENFORCEMENT OF JUT)GMENT. If a judgment is not complied with in the time prescribed, the governing body may cause the building to be repaired, razed, or removed or the hazardous condition to be removed or corrected as set forth in the judgment, or acquire the building and real estate on which the building or hazardous condition is located by eminent domain as provided in section 463.152. The cost of such repairs, razing, or removal shall be a lien against the real estate on which the building is located or the hazardous condition exists and may be levied and collected only as a special assessment in the manner provided by Minnesota Statutes 1961, Sec- tions 429.061 to 429.081, but the assessment shall be payable in a single installment. When the building is razed or removed by the municipality, the governing body may sell the salvage and valuable materials at public auction upon three days' posted no- tice.

If there are delinquent taxes against the property, the 5635 BUILDING LINE EASEMENTS; BUILDING REGULATIONS 463261 court shall direct the payment of the surplus to the county treasurer to be applied on such taxes. [ 1965 c 393 s 8; 1974 c 329 s l j 46323 PAYMENT, TENDER, DEPOSIT IN COURT. The net proceeds of a sale under section 463.21 or section 463.24 shall be paid to persons designated in the judg- ment in the proportions as their interests shall appear therein. Acceptance of such payment shall be taken as a waiver of all objections to the payment and to the pro- ceedings leading thereto on the part of the payee and of all persons for whom he is lawfully empowered to act. In case any party to whom a payment of damages is made be not a resident of the state, or his place of residence be unknown, or he be an infant or other person under legal disability, or, being legally capable, refuses to accept pay- ment, or if for any reason it be doubtful to whom any payment should be paid, the municipality may pay the same to the clerk, to be paid out under the direction of the court; and, unless an appeal be taken such deposit with the clerk shall be deemed a payment of the award. [ 1965c393s9] 46324 PERSONAL PROPERTY OR FIXTURES. If any building ordered razed, removed, or made safe and sanitary by repairs contains personal property or fixtures which will unreasonably interfere with the razing, removal, or repair of such building, or if the razing or removal of the building makes necessary the removal of such per- sonal property or fixtures, the original order of the governing body may direct the re- moval of such personal property or fixtures within a reasonable time. If the property or fixtures are not removed by the time specified, and the governing body subse- quently desires to enforce a judgment under sections 463.15 to 463.26, it may sell the same at public auction as provided in section 463.21, or if without appreciable value, the governing body may destroy the same. [ 1965 c 393 s 10 ] 463,25 HAZARDOUS EXCAVATIONS. If in any city, an excavation for build- ing purposes is left open for more than six months without proceeding with the erection of a building thereon, whether or not completed, or if any excavation or base- ment is not filled to grade or otherwise protected after a building is destroyed, demol- ished or removed, the governing body may order such excavation to be filled or pro- tected or in the alternative that erection of a building begin forthwith if the excavation is for building purposes. The order shall be served upon the owner or his agent in the manner provided by section 463.17. If the owner of the land fails to comply with the order within fifteen days after the order is served upon him, the governing body shall cause the excavation to be filled to grade or protected and the cost shall be charged against the real estate as provided in section 463.21. [ 1965c393s11; 1973c123ail 5s7] 463.251 SECURING VACANT BUILDINGS. If in any city a building becomes vacant or unoccupied and is deemed hazardous due to the fact that the building is open to trespass and has not been secured and the building could be made safe by se- curing the building, the governing body may order the building secured and shall cause noticeof the order to be served upon the owner of record of the premises or his agent by delivering a copy to him or by mailing it to him at his last known address. Service by mail is complete upon mailing. If the owner of the building fails to comply with the order within ten days after the order is served upon him, the governing body shall cause the building to be properly secured and the cost thereof may be charged against the real estate as provided in section 463.21. [ 1973 c 123 art 5 s 7, 1973c520s1 1 46326 LOCAL, ACTS AND CHARTER PROVISIONS. Sections 463.15 to 463.26 are supplementary to other statutory and charter provisions and do not limit the au- thority of any city to enact and enforce ordinances on the same subject.

River Road. I have discussed the issue both with you and Mr. Doyle on July 20, 1982. As explained at that time, if the property was to be separated along existing platted lines, the split would have to be recorded at the County and City Council would have to pass a resolution to split the special assesssments. Inspecting the property involved, revealed neither parcel has a hard -surface paved driveway as required by our zoning code. Accordingly, the driveways must be paved. In addition, we would require a statement from Mr. Doyle that the properties are to be single residential use in accordance with the exist- ing R-1 Zoning. If the properties were to be split on other than pre-existing plat lines, this would require a formal application to the City for a lot split. The same concerns indicated above would also prevail. I hope this clarifies the actions necessary to complete the sale of Mr. Doyle's property on East River Road. If I can be of any further assistance please call me at 571-3450, ext.. 159.
