� <br />• <br />� <br />December 4, 1990 <br />Mr. Roger Jensen <br />Peterson, Bell, Converse, Jensen <br />2100 American National Bank Bldg. <br />101 East 5th Street <br />St. Paul, MN 55101 <br />Dear Mr. Jensen: <br />Code enforcement staff has recently been working <br />Harmon concerning a complaint filed against him <br />parking of a vehicle at his residence. M: <br />questioned our interpretation of the City <br />Therefore, I would like for you to advise us <br />interpretation of the City ordinance. <br />with Mr. Rick <br />concerning the <br />. Harmon has <br />s ordinances. <br />�f the correct <br />The ordinance in question is 7.110 - Permitted Exterio� �ark�_ng. <br />The situation is that the Mr. Harmon i:�s a collector vehicle <br />which he stores in the side yard of his house. City staff's <br />interpretation of the ordinance is that cars must be parked on a <br />hard surface. Mr. Harmon questions the City's interpretation in <br />two ways. First, he states t�at the ordinance should be <br />interpreted as requiring parking on a driveway in the front yard <br />only and not in a side yard. The second area that he questions <br />is how we apply said ordinance to a collector vehicle. He claims <br />that because of the restrictions on the amou�nt of driving that <br />can be done with a vehicle with collector p'�ates(i.e. they may <br />only be driven less than 2,000 miles per year; only driven in <br />special events; and cannot be the primary vehicle for driving to <br />work), parking i� in his side yard is purely storage, similar to <br />boats and campers. It is not the same as parking a family <br />vehicle. <br />Please <br />If you <br />2236. <br />RJ: jg <br />advise me as to how we should interpret this ordinance. <br />have any questions, please feel free to contact me at 490- <br />Sincerely, <br />Rick �T�pke <br />Assi�tant Community Development <br />Dire:ctor <br />
