--- title: Minutes - Final --- 15 West Kellogg Blvd. ## Saint Paul, MN 55102 ## City of Saint Paul ## Minutes - Final ## Legislative Hearings ## Marcia Moermond, Legislative Hearing Officer ## Mai Vang, Hearing Coordinator ## Joanna Zimny, Executive Assistant legislativehearings@ci.stpaul.mn.us 651-266-8585 ## 9:00 AM ## Room 330 City Hall & Court House/Remote Tuesday, May 5, 2026 11:00 a.m. Hearings ## Summary & Vehicle Abatement Orders 1 ## RLH SAO 26-36 Appeal of Victor Thao to a Summary Abatement Order at 685 VAN ## BUREN AVENUE. ## Sponsors: ## Bowie Grant to May 18th for compliance. Victor Thao, owner, appeared via phone [Moermond gives background of appeals process] Staff report by Supervisor Lisa Martin: a Summary Abatement Order was issued April 21, 2026 to remove and properly dispose of scrap wood, fencing, wood panels and miscellaneous debris from entire property and rear near alley. Compliance date of April 28th. Photos in the file. Items between the garage were issued in orders for the neighboring property as well. Thao: I’m disappointed there’s no affirmative action to prevent this from happening again. I would like time to confirm my property. The area between my garage and neighboring house, I want time to be able to find a land surveyor to determine if that’s my property or not. I’m not sure it is my property. If this IS my property I feel like this some type of trespassing and vandalism. Moermond: is yours the blue or white garage? Thao: it is yellow. To the left of the yellow building is my garage. Moermond: are you thinking you own up to their garage? Thao: the blue is the neighboring property and I don’t know if it is my trash or not. Moermond: buildings are supposed to be no closer than 3 feet from the property line. So there should be six feet at least between the two buildings. You could assume the three feet you are responsible for. A surveyor isn’t cheap, and I won’t wait for that to happen before this garbage is picked up. The price of cleaning this up is also Page 1 ## City of Saint Paul May 5, 2026Legislative HearingsMinutes - Final negligible compared to a price of a survey. I’m going to go with putting a deadline in place. If I gave you a deadline in two weeks that seems sufficient to deal with the hauler doing a bulky pickup for the larger items, and then the smaller things can go into your cart over the next couple of weeks. I will recommend a deadline of May 18th. Whatever is not done will be reported to me and we will have a discussion on the 19th. If it isn’t done the Council can order the Department of Safety and Inspections clean it up to resolve the matter. Thao: I sent a photo on the 15th. And there’s been way more trash piled up from April 15th until now. I’d like to send those photos into you. Moermond: my main concern is the Department of Safety and Inspections’ photos the day they wrote the orders, April 21, any photos preceding that date while I appreciate it, I need to work with the 21 moving forwa…
