At the June 22, 2009 City Council meeting the City Council approved modifications to the C8 TIF district to create a
scattered site district. The purpose of this district is to acquire and demolish the most blighted properties in the
community that are currently for sale within the foreclosure market. The following guidelines for acquisition were
approved:
1) An acquisition price point of $SS,000 or less
2} All homes purchased will be demolished
3} Homes acquired should fall in one of the following categories:
a. Evidence of structural failure
b. Hazardous conditions including extensive mold
c. Functional obsolescence (size of property, interior layout)
d. Extensive physical deterioration
4) Residua[ vacant Lots shall meet existing zoning standards for purposes of rebuilding
S) Recognition that extenuating circumstances may require deviation. from the above policies
As part of the project described above staff has negotiated. the purchase of property located at 4039 Sth Street for
$38,000 plus closing costs and demolition.. The subject lot is about 5,200 square feet with an existing one
bedroom single-family home that is 631 square feet, which was built in 1920. There is also cone-car detached
garage. The Building Official conducted. an inspection at 4039 S`" Street on December 16, 2008. The inspection
revealed that the structure constitutes a hazard to public safety and health in that the structure was seriously
damaged. in a fire, resulting in deficiencies in the structural integrity and serviceability of the mechanical and
plumbing systems, which render the structure unsalvageable. The home was posted at that time..
eeo endation•
Staff recommends approval of the purchase. The funds will come from the Scattered site district fund 376.
Recommended Motfon:
Move to waive the reading of Resolution 2010-33, there being ample amount of copies available to the public.
Move to adopt Resolution 2010-33, approving the acquisition of property located at 4039 Sth Street NE;
furthermore to authorize the Mayor and City Manager to enter into an agreement for the same.

Re: 4039 5t" St. NE
Columbia Heights, MN
Dear Manuel,
On December 16`", 2008 I was invited to the above reference address to make a damage
assessment of the property due to fire. Upon arrival I proceeded to the front door of the
residence and knocked. People inside instructed me to come on in. I introduced myself
as the City of Columbia Heights Building Official. Present at the site were yourself, two
individuals from the insurance company, your mother, your mother's sister and two
individuals from a restoration company.
I proceeded down into the basement to observe the fire damage. During my investigation
and assessment I witnessed the following deficiencies with the structural integrity of the
building and serviceability of the mechanical and plumbing systems:
1. The structural beams have a permanent sag in them caused. by the excessive
heat during the fire. The entire structural steel support system appears to also
be inadequate in terms of structural bearing. The steel beams are supported on
4" Cement Masonry Units. 4" CMUs are not rated for continuous load path
bearing.
2. Approximately 1/3 of the floor joists are charred to the point of cracking,
making them structurally unsound.
3. Sub-floor in the same area is charred compromising the structural integrity of
the floor system.
4. The electrical system reached temperatures causing the jacket to melt off of
the conductors.
5. The electrical service panel was exposed to temperatures in excess of the
panel ratings.
6. The furnace was exposed. to the extreme heat compromising the working
components of the heating system.
7. The ductwork reached temperatures causing the galvanizing to melt off the
ductwork.
8. Water piping was compromised due to the high temperatures.
9. The water heater drain valve was leaking due to being exposed to the high
temperatures.
18
I have assessed the property under Minnesota Statutes 463.15-26 Hazardous and
Substandard buildings. My recommendation to the City Council will be to have the
structure razed due to the amount of damage to structural, electrical and mechanical
systems. I will be forwarding my recommendation to the City Council for their
considerations and decision as whether or not to order the removal of the primary
structure.
With safety being m_y primary concern, at this time I will be placing a placard on the
structure indicating the building is deemed unsafe for human occupancy. It is unlawful
for any person to occupy or reside in this building under Section l 300.0180 of the
Building Code of the State of Minnesota. This placard will remain in effect until the
structure is razed. Written authorization is required from the Building Official, or his
authorized agent, for anyone to enter the structure for either providing assessments or
removal of personal property. Please allow adequate time to prepare the authorization
letter for entry to the property. The letter must be in hand in order to access the property.
The letter will state the time(s) and dates} of access.
If the City Council votes to have the building razed, you as the owner, or representative
of the owner, will be responsible for the removal of the structure in the time specified by
the City Council. This will include the "killing" of both the city water and city sewer
connections at the mains. In addition, disconnection of both electrical and gas service to
the structure will be required. Recommendation by my office will be to extend the
removal period to May 15, 2009 due to the added costs of killing the utilities through
frozen ground and excavation of the street during winter months,
If you have any questions or would like to discuss my findings you can call me at
(763)706-3677.
Yours truly,
Lawrence R. Pepin

At the May 3, 2010 City Council work session representatives from Minneapolis, including Council Member

ITEM: Ordinance No. 1574 to Re-Adopt Building BY: Shelley Hanson Y~ Sc~~Cr
Permit/Plan Review Fee Schedule DATE: May 12, 2010 ~.. ~ , '
Background Information:
r__ ,
Effective July 1, 2010, the State of Minnesota is increasing the State Surcharge collected on fixed fee
permits from $.50 to $5.00 per permit. This affects our Residential Plumbing, Heating, and Water
and. Sewer permits. At this time, the State proposes the new fee be in effect for a period of one year.
Since the current fee schedule detailed the $.50 minimum amount previously charged, Legal Counsel
advised us to re-adopt the fee schedule to accommodate the new fee by changing the language to read
the "`State Surcharge will be collected as mandated by the State". This will eliminate the need to re-
adopt it again if the surcharge changes back, or is ever increased again in the future.
Recommendation: Staff recommends re-adopting the fee schedule as presented.
Recommended Motion: Move to waive the reading of Ordinance # 1574, there being ample copies
available to the public
Move to schedule the seconding reading of Ordinance # 1574 being an Ordinance amending
Ordinance 1490 City Cade 2005 to adopt the permit fee schedule for Building Construction,
Plumbing/Gas Piping, Heating/Cooling, Fire Suppression, Wrecking and Moving, Signs and other
related. construction work to the meeting of June 14, 2010, at approximately 7:00 pm in the Council
Chambers.
