Saint Paul file RES 26-1706, before the Saint Paul City Council. Passed as of 2026-10-07.
Latest action: Passed
You may get a bill for demolishing this building If you own 610 Charles Ave, the city will charge you for tearing down the vacant structure; you can respond at hearings on November 24, 2026 and February 3, 2027.
Neighbors see blighted property removed from their block The surrounding neighborhood loses a vacant, hazardous building that may attract crime or decay; demolition clears the lot for future development or green space.
Owner covers full demo cost even if property value is low The property owner bears the entire demolition bill regardless of the land's market value or the owner's ability to pay; this can result in a large assessment on a worthless lot.
