Owner says he didn’t receive notice; St. Paul council extends nuisance clean‑up deadline to June 2
Summary
After property owner Ron Tubbs said he did not receive mailed notice of an April 7 nuisance hearing, the council extended the clean-up deadline for 726 Howard Avenue to June 2; the police department's certificate of posting indicating notice was taped to the door was recorded in the minutes.
The St. Paul City Council on April 21 extended the clean‑up deadline for the nuisance property at 726 Howard Avenue to Monday, June 2, 2025, after the property owner attended the meeting to contest notice and describe cleanup progress.
Property owner Ron Tubbs told the council he did not receive mailed notice of the April 7 hearing and said he is working to clean the property, adding that fire trucks on the property are for sale and a trailer is being loaded with items for disposal. The minutes record that a Certificate of Posting by the St. Paul Police Department indicated the notice had been taped to the door at 726 Howard Avenue.
Council member Jerry Woodgate moved to extend the cleanup date; Council member Mark Wilson seconded. Council members Katie Kowalski, Bill Peters, Mark Wilson and Jerry Woodgate voted aye, nays none. Motion carried 4‑0. The change gives the owner additional time to abate the nuisance; the minutes do not record additional enforcement steps or a further review date.
