MEMORANDUM
TO: Michael McCauley, City Manager
FROM: Brad Hoffman, Community Development Director
DATE: March 27, 2003
SUBJECT: Chapter 12 Ordinance Amendment
The City Council is being asked to consider an amendment to Chapter 12 that would give them
the authority to issue a provisional rental license in lieu of just denial or non - approval for an
apartment complex that fails to meet minimum standards established in the ordinance. In the past
when a complex would have significant maintenance issues (life, safety) that had not been
addressed in a timely manner, staff would withhold the submission of the rental license
application or renewal to the Council for approval until compliance was obtained. For the most
part this has worked, however, this practice is inconsistent with Chapterl2. The amendment for
Council consideration would bring a noncompliant complex before the Council when their
license expired and would allow a provisional license to be issued. The applicant for the license
would be required to submit a mitigation plan to the Council for their acceptance. Every month
thereafter, the applicant would have to submit a written report to the City Manager relative to the
actions taken to come into compliance.
I have noted that the draft ordinance as currently written provides for a provisional license for
apartments with excessive police and /or fire calls only. I have requested the City attorney add
language that would also provide for the issuance of a provisional license when there exists
serious life safety issues. I do not expect the language to be available by the meeting on the 2 °a
With the inclusion of such language, the Council will have the option of the provisional license
for most violations of Chapter 12.
Ordinance Overview and Comment
Section 12 -901
Subd. 1 This section creates two types of rental license: regular and provisional.
Subd.2 This section determines the time period for each license. The regular license
would remain at two years.
Comments:
The Housing Commission would like a one -year license. It was felt that with an annual
license and the related license inspection, properties would not have the opportunity to
become distressed problem properties. I believe that we currently have many
opportunities to be on these properties for a variety of inspections and, as such, are not
precluded from writing compliance orders. At the staff level, we have considered an
annual license by doing just half of the units in each complex each year. Currently, with
problem apartments we inspect all units when performing a rental license inspection. For
properties without a history of problems, we normally will inspect 25% or more of the
units on each floor as well as all of the common areas and exteriors. If we were to go to
an annual license, we would have to add personnel to accommodate the additional
inspections. At the present time, we are averaging approximately 13 inspections per day
per inspector.
Section 12 -912
Subd.I This section provides that multiple dwellings with 4 or more units having an
average of more that one police and/or fire call per unit would only qualify for a provisional
license. The complex would be eligible for a regular license only after a one -year period with
fewer that one call for police or fire service per unit.
Comments:
I believe we will have to monitor this part of the ordinance closely. The application of the
ordinance to a 4 -unit complex could be onerous. It is possible to have a tenant generate 4
calls in a short period of time. The time frame could be short enough that the owner
would not be able to get an unlawful detainer against the tenant and thus be penalized
even though they had taken appropriate action.
Subd. l a This section defines all of the calls for service that would be used to determine
if a property would be required to get a provisional license.
Subd.lb This section clarifies which calls will not be used.
Subd. l c Defines the time period to be used in determining the number of calls per unit.
It is the 12 -month period prior to 2 months before the commencement of the license. This was an
area of concern from the Housing Commission.
Comments:
With a two -year license, the applicant could have a problem property for a period of time
and be able to reduce the calls to qualify for the regular license and then revert back. The
ordinance already addresses such a possibility. There is nothing to preclude the Council
from the suspension or revocation of the license if circumstances warrant it.
Subd. l d Requires a monthly report of calls be mailed to the licensee. The police
currently hand deliver these reports to the complex. The generation of these reports helps keep
staff aware of the problem properties.
Subd.2 This section requires the applicant to submit a mitigation plan to reduce the
number of calls for police and fire service to an acceptable level.
Subd. 3 This section sets forth how the plan will be submitted to the Council and basis
upon which the Council will approve, modify or disapprove the plan.
Subd. 4 This section requires the license holder to provide a written report to the City
Manager on the 10 of every month. The report is to describe the actions taken to reduce the
calls.
Section 12 -913
Subd.1 Requires a criminal background check of all prospective tenants.
Comments:
You should note that it does not require them to use the information but it does make
them aware of who resides in their complex.
This is a quick review and comment on the proposed changes to Chapter 12. It has also been
suggested that a license fee substantially higher than the regular fee be charged as part of the
ordinance. I agree that a higher fee should be charged. However, it would be more appropriate to
handle the fee as part of the Council's annual resolution setting such fees. Memorializing the fee
in an ordinance make it too cumbersome to change. I will be available on the 2nd to discuss the
proposed change to the ordinance with both the Council and the Housing Commission.

specified in the City Council's written decision or in paragraph 8.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Housing Commission
DATE: June 18, 2002
SUBJECT: RV Ordinance
The Housing Commission has been studying changes to Section 19 -103 as it pertains to
recreational vehicles. Our study has included:
■ parking inside right of way
■ sight lines
■ paving surfaces
■ front yard - side yard - rear yard parking
■ limit number of RV per property
■ possible setback provisions
■ treating boats or snowmobiles with trailers to these same restrictions
■ limit size of RV on property i.e. length, height, gross weight
Enclosed with this memo are photos of parked RV's at various addresses within Brooklyn
Center. Some of the photos show RV's within street right -of -way. Others show more than one
RV on the property.
We have found the right of way (15' from curb) and sight line to be adequately addressed by our
traffic ordinance, Section 27 -120.
The Department of Motor Vehicles has indicated there are 195 RV vehicles (motor home type)
with Brooklyn Center zip codes. Boats and snowmobile licenses are an inaccurate count as they
are often stored at lake homes or inside garages.
Members of the Commission feel the effects of an ordinance change may be minimal in
improving curb appeal/appearance. Enforcement can be enhanced to move some of these RV's
from near the curb. Members also feel narrow restrictions may be obtrusive to the rights of
homeowners.
We look forward to meeting with Council to discuss these items.
