Planning Director Schroeter reported that the appeal is related to applications for Architectural and Use Permits which were denied but that he understands that Pat Ryan, owner of the building, expects to make another submittal of plans which may be approvable. He observed that the appeal remains before Council at this time. Mayor Stangel declared the public hearing open at 8:50 p.m. Michael Adams, attorney representing Pat Ryan, owner of the subject property, stated that Mr. Ryan now has plans to upgrade the building by using the ground floor for a restaurant and the upper floor for office space with an inside stairwell, provided he can obtain the financing needed to do so. The permit applications being appealed are for a plan to use the ground floor for a restaurant and the second level for residences with an outside staircase as existed before the fire and abatement order, except that he will convert the ground floor from a bar to a restaurant. The plan being appealed would be constructed, if Mr. Ryan cannot obtain the financing to do the upgraded construction, but Mr. Adams said his client is proceeding with the appeal in order to have options, depending upon the financing available. In response to questions of City Attorney Schricker, Mr. Adams said that he estimated value of the subject building before the fire was between $50,000 and $100,000; that the anticipated cost of reconstruction to abate the nuisance and meet Building and Fire Code requirements, and provide for a restaurant on the ground floor, residences above and outside staircase would be $87,000; and that to reconstruct the building with a ground floor restaurant, offices on the second floor and an inside staircase would cost $109,000.
