Ramsey County department makes move across the river
The Property Records and Revenue Department should be up and running Monday at its new site. The consolidation should please residents: Parking will be free. It's about to get a lot easier to look up a property record or get an absentee ballot in Ramsey County -- depending on whether you live and work downtown or are coming from elsewhere. The Property Records and Revenue Department, which also contains the elections office, is moving this weekend from its space along downtown St. Paul's river bluff to an open building on the West Side. Parking will be free. ... The space left behind will likely be filled by county employees currently working in the "F Building," the easternmost part of the West complex. County commissioners voted 6 to 1 in October to raze the F building and old county jail, which sits vacant, as part of county efforts to shed its prime riverfront real estate. The county is negotiating with two developers, Minnesota-based Opus Northwest and Belgium-based WingField, which each want the land to build a mix of housing, hotel, office and shop space. The County Board is expected to choose one of the purchase agreements on Dec. 18.
