The abatement was authorized because the property owner failed to remove a <br />dilapidated storage building and items in the building, which had been deemed a public health and <br />safety hazard. The memo to the City Council and minutes from the June 26, 2006, City Council <br />meeting are attached for reference (Attachment A). <br /> <br />According to the City Attorney, criminal prosecutions and subsequent motions to enforce court <br />orders were still pending when the abatement was originally approved. The property owner has <br />since failed to cleanup the property. The City Attorney has prepared the Order to Remove <br />Hazardous Building and Contents at 3150 Hamline Avenue, which, when approved, will move the <br />abatement process forward (Attachment B). <br /> <br />After the Order is signed, the property owner will have twenty days to either cleanup the property or <br />file a response with the Ramsey County District Court. If the property owner does not cleanup the <br />property or respond to the Court, the City will file a motion for Summary Enforcement of this Order <br />with the District Court requesting judgment in favor of the City and allowing the City to: <br /> <br />City of Arden Hills <br />City Council Meetingfor August 11, 2008 <br /> <br />\\Metro-inet.us\ardenhills\Building\Address File\Hamline Avenue North \3150\081108 - CC Report - Order to Remove Hazardous Building - Legal <br />Description Correction. doc <br /> <br />Page 1 of2 <br />
