<br />The group reviewed data, heard from codes, building, police and fire staff as well as <br />reviewed other ordinances and their effectiven ess, particularly the Burnsville Ordinance. <br />Over the course of their meetings, the group agreed that the follo wing were key issues <br />regarding rental housing and housing codes in general. <br /> Lack of accurate data on rental properties <br /> Staff lack of authority to enter properties suspected of overcrowding <br /> Protracted process for resolving complaints <br /> Too many cars and lack of adequate parking <br /> Implementation of the new Pr operty Maintenance Ordinance <br /> <br />Based upon the knowledge and observation re garding existing codes and issues <br />associated with rental housing, the Citi zen Advisory Group is bringing forth the <br />following recommendation for the Roseville HRA and City Council. <br /> <br />Recommendation #1 — Strengthen the administrative tic ket tool attached to existing <br />ordinances by: a) creating and escalating fi ne structure and b) working with Ramsey <br />County tax collection to add unpaid admini strative tickets as an assessment on the <br />property tax. <br /> <br />Discussion items: <br /> This will address enforcement of property maintenance violations. <br /> This would not address issues of overc rowding, parking, and interior problems. <br /> <br /> <br />Recommendation #2 — City Council take action to a llow code enforcement staff to <br />initiate a court citation process without a public hearing by the C ity Council, with the <br />understanding that there would be safeguards in place to prevent abuse of the process. <br /> <br />Discussion item: <br /> This might still seem to complaining citizens like a long time for response, because <br />there is a 30-day notice period before the City initiates action against the violator. <br />However, staff experience is that once e xplained, citizens seem to understand and <br />accept this restriction. <br />
