Mounds View City Council October 23, 2006 Regular Meeting Page 9 1 Mayor Marty suggested that someone talk to the residents in that unit to apprise them of the 2 situation and suggest they begin the search should that become necessary. 3 4 Inspector Jeremiah Anderson explained that Staff is open to the idea of amending the Resolution. 5 He then said that this is a four unit rental building with shared heating paid for by the owner and 6 so is the garbage and there could be a situation where there is a nonpayment for heating based on 7 the financial situation of the property owner. 8 9 MOTION/SECOND: Stigney/Thomas. To Waive the Reading and Approve Resolution 6954, 10 Non-Renewal of Multiple Dwelling Rental License at 5701 Quincy Street as Amended. 11 12 City Attorney Riggs indicated that the City will lose some of its ability to control some of these 13 things because it becomes a single unit rental rather than multiple.
