MEMORANDUM To: Clerical Staff Building &Zoning Staff Street File- 2670 Kelley Parkway- "Unit#100" From: Mike Gaffron, Asst. City Administrator Date: May 12, 2011 Subject: Stonebay Lofts - Common Area Address Designation for Permitting Purposes Stonebay Lofts at 2670 Kelley Parkway is a Condominium property in which the 57 individual dwelling units each have a separate PINS number and are addressed as Units#101-118,#201- 220, and#301-319. There is no separate PINS number, however, for the common areas either inside or outside the building. Each condo unit legally has a shared ownership of the common areas inside and outside the building, and the value of the commons areas is rolled into their individual unit valuations. The lack of a separate PINS number and address for the common areas makes it difficult for our permitting system to issue a permit for work in the common areas. The Hennepin County property descriptions office and tax office will not create a fictitious PINS number for the common areas because they are not a separate described parceL However, they have suggested that we can create a fictitious PINS number for our in-house system(with a suffix 9999) and assign an address for our filing system, so that we have a digital and physical location for permits, etc. with regards to the condo common areas. Therefore, a fictitious PINS number of 33-118-23 12 9999 will henceforth be assigned to the common areas of the Stonebay Lofts property. The fictitious address to be assigned to the common areas is 2670 Kelley Parkway, Unit#100. DO NOT USE THIS ADDRESS FOR MAILINGS -THE MAIL WILL BE RETURNED!
