Saamen Corporation filed a lawsuit On June 6, 2006, against University City in St. Louis County Circuit Court seeking a declaratory judgment that University City's vacant building registration and maintenance ordinance (Code Section 8.28.020.113) is unconstitutional, plus an award of damages, attorney's fees and court costs. On October 18, 2006, Judge Patrick Clifford granted University City's motion to dismiss the lawsuit because the allegations were insufficient as a matter of law to state a case against University City.

For purposes of discussion, I have two applications from individuals without prior experience in today’s packet. If I were to implement the two suggestions above, I would likely redirect both applicants to resubmit applications based on backgrounds. Please, contact me directly to discuss or schedule a study session to review the policy in more detail. Misc. ?
