MEETING DATE: May 16, 2016
AGENDA ITEM: Noise Violation, 22 Elm Street E
Cory Ehlert
SUBMITTED BY: Administration
BOARD/COMMISSION/COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: N/A
PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: The property located at 22 Elm St E does not have any violations
within the review period.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The City Council has established a policy whereby all noise violations
regarding rental properties are reviewed by the City Council. The process before the Council is twofold.
First,the Council must determine if a noise violation did occur. It is up to the property owner to request
an evidentiary hearing if they dispute the allegation. The evidentiary hearing is a very formal process
where each side is represented by an attorney and the hearing is conducted in a court setting with the
Council being the judge. In this case the City would hire a court reporter to document the proceedings.
At the end of the hearing the Council would then make a finding. Very seldom has an evidentiary
hearing been requested, as is the case with this violation.
Once the Council made a determination that a violation did occur, the Council must then consider the
disposition. The maximum fine allowed by Statute is $ 1,000. Previously the Council has based the fine
on the severity of the violation and the cooperation of the tenants. The minimum fine has been $
250.00 which covers the administrative costs of the violation, with the assumption it is taken care of
with one police intervention.
The action the Council is dealing with is the Rental License and the landlord. Even though the tenants
are responsible for the actions, the City holds the landlord accountable. In separate action the Police
can issue citations to the individuals.
ATTACHMENTS: Request for Council Action
Hearing Notice
Incident Reports
REQUESTED COUNCIL ACTION: As stated earlier,two separate motions are required. First the Council
must determine that a violation did occur and then the disposition must be considered.

RE: Alleged Noise Violation — 22 Elm St E
Mayo Dear Cory:
Rick Sch ltz
This letter has been prepared to provide you with notice and information regarding a
Co n lo s
proposed suspension or revocation of the rental license for the above referenced
Matt Killam property. This action is being taken because of an alleged violation of Ordinance
Bob Loso No. 102 of the St. Joseph Code of Ordinances. This violation is alleged to have
arisen out of an incident on May 3, 2016.Renee Symanietz
Dale V ick The St. Joseph City Council will review these allegations and consider appropriate
action, including a suspension or revocation of your rental license, for up to a period
of twelve months. The meeting will be conducted on Monday, May 16, 2016 at 6:00
PM in the St. Joseph City Hall, 25 College Avenue North.
At that time you are entitled to a hearing to be conducted in accordance with
Minnesota Statutes 14.57 to 14.70. This hearing will be for the purpose of
determining whether or not the alleged violation did in fact occur. At that hearing,
you have the right to cross-examine witnesses and present evidence on your
behalf. The proceedings will be video recorded. Based upon the evidence
presented, the Council will then make a determination as to whether or not the
alleged violation did in fact occur.
If you wish to have an evidentiary hearing of this type, you must contact the City
Administrator in writing at least five days prior to the scheduled Council meeting. If
a request for hearing is not received by the City Clerk/Administrator at least five
days before the hearing, you will then be considered to have waived your right to
have an evidentiary hearing and no evidentiary hearing will be scheduled. A waiver
of this right to hearing will be equivalent to an admission of the basic allegation (s)
alleged herein and reported by the complaining party.
If you waive your right to hearing, or if an evidentiary hearing is conducted and the
Council determines that a violation did occur, then and in those events, the Council
will proceed immediately to consider a disposition, which may include

revocation or suspension of your rental license. Prior to the determination of disposition, you or
your designated representative may address the City Council and at the time of disposition.
In the event of a revocation or suspension of your rental license, the premises must be vacated
of all renters, within thirty days of the Council action. Any rental occupancy occurring after that
time may result in criminal charges.
You have the right to be represented at the time of this meeting during either the evidentiary
hearing, if requested, or the dispositional hearing. If you wish to have legal representation, you
must hire your own attorney. If you have any questions regarding the law or your rights, I
suggest that you contact an attorney to discuss this matter.
Your failure to appear at this meeting will be considered an admission of the allegation and a
waiver of your right to address the Council before the determination of a disposition. If you fail
to appear, the Council will take whatever action is deemed appropriate and you will be notified
of this action at a later time.
The City has concerns as the noise from the property could be heard several b/ocks
away. The officers indicated the music and bass were so loud that the words from the
music could be clearly understood as far away as Minnesota Street. In addition, fhe
tenants were not cooperative and had to return to the property three times before the
matter was reso/ved. For more details about the incident fee/free fo contact the Po/ice
Chief, Joel Klein af 320-229-9427.
If you have any questions or need additional information please feel free to contact me at
320.363.7201.
Sincerely,
Jr' 4
