SO I WANTED TO LET YOU ALL KNOW THAT.
AND FROM THERE, WE'RE ON NEW BUSINESS WHENEVER YOU'RE READY.
SO, SO WE DON'T NEED TO DO ANY KIND OF MOTION OR ANYTHING TO DISMISS THE CASE.
UM, YOU CERTAINLY, THAT'S PROBABLY A GOOD IDEA.
SO I WOULD REQUEST THAT THE BOARD, UH, DISMISS THIS CASE SINCE THE PROPERTY HAS BRED AND BROUGHT INTO COMPLIANCE, UH, HAVE A MOTION, PLEASE.
I WILL MAKE A MOTION THAT WE DISMISSED THIS CASE CONSIDERING IT'S NONCOMPLIANT.
AND THAT WOULD BE CASE 22 DASH ZERO TWO.

SO PMR B CASE 22 DASH ZERO TWO HAS BEEN DISMISSED.
UH, FIRST CASE WE HAVE THE NIGHT'S PMR B CASE 22 DEATHS, ZERO SEVEN.

AND MR. CHAIRMAN, THE PROPERTY HAS RECEIVED THE NORMAL COURSE OF LETTERS.
UH, IN ADDITION TO THAT VOICEMAILS LEFT FOR THE RESIDENT WITH THE NO RESPONSE.
I ALSO VISITED THE PROPERTY TODAY, RANG THE DOORBELL, GOT NO ANSWER.
IT CERTAINLY APPEARS TO BE SOMEONE'S RESIDING THERE.
SO ALL WE HAVE AS A RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY AT 6 8, 3 800 DERIVE IN VIOLATION OF THE CITY'S PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODE, SECTION 13, 13 0 5 B REGARDING FENCE MAINTENANCE CITY CODE READS AS
[00:05:01]

ALL OFFENSES SHALL BE TREATED PERIODICALLY.
SO AS TO RETARD DETERIORATION, INSPECTION VERIFIES THE PROPERTY THAT DOES NOT MEET THE STANDARDS SET FORTH IN THE CODE.
THEREFORE THE PROPERTIES IN VIOLATION CITY ZONING LETTERS HAVE NOT BEEN RETURNED YET.
THE PROPERTY REMAINS IN VIOLATION.
THERE HAS BEEN NO COMMUNICATION WITH THE CODE ENFORCEMENT OFFICE, FROM ANYONE INVOLVED WITH THE PROPERTY, THE TAX RECORDS SHOW ALL TAXES ARE CURRENT AND HAVE HISTORICALLY BEEN PAID.
I BELIEVE IT'S REASONABLE TO ASSUME THAT ANY WORK, THIS BOARD ORDERS WILL BE PAID BY THE PROPERTY OWNER OR THROUGH THE ASSESSMENT PROCESS.
STAFF RECOMMENDS THE BOARD DECLARED THE PROPERTY NUISANCE, AND THE MORE ORDER STAFF TO HAVE THE CITY CONTRACT OR A BAIT, THE PROPERTY.
ANY QUESTIONS, ANYONE EMOTION, PLEASE.
I W I MOVE, WE DECLARED A PROPERTY, A NUISANCE AND HALF QUOTA FORCEMENT.
UH, IT'S THE ISSUES, RIGHT? WE HAVE A SECOND.
MR. WINKLER MOTION CARRIES FOR A PMR B CASE 22 DAYS ZERO EIGHT.
NEXT CASE IS PMR B CASE 22 DASH ZERO NINE.
UM, THE PROPERTY OWNER LOREEN TOLMAN IS IN VIOLATION OF SECTION 13, 13 OF THE PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODE AT PROPERTY LOCATED AT 63 0 1 LONGFORD ROAD.
MR. CHAIRMAN, THE NORMAL COURSE OF LETTERS HAS BEEN MAILED A STANFORD REPORT READS AS FOLLOWS.
PARDON ME? THE RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY AT 63 0 1 LONGFORD ROAD IS IN VIOLATION OF THE CITY'S PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODE, SECTION 13, 13 0 5 C REGARDING JUNK BEING STORED ON THE PROPERTY.
IN THIS CASE, A DISCARDED SOFA CITY CODE READS AS FOLLOWS ALL YARDS COURTS, OR LOTS OF SHALL BE KEPT FREELAND, SIGHTLY MATERIALS, NOT APPROPRIATE TO THE AREA AND DEBRIS, WHICH MAY CAUSE A FIRE HAZARD AND ACT AS A BREEDING PLACE FOR VERMIN OR INSECTS.
ALL PREMISES SHALL BE REASONABLY FREE FROM WASTE PAPER AND OTHER TRASH AND DEBRIS AND ALL ITEMS OR MATERIAL THAT MEET THE CITY CODE DEFINITION OF JUNK FROM SECTION 11 23 60 INSPECTION VERIFIES THE PROPERTY DOES NOT MEET THE STANDARDS SET FORTH IN THE CODE.
THEREFORE, THE PROPERTY IS IN VIOLATION.
CITY ZONE LETTERS HAVE NOT BEEN RETURNED YET.
THE PROPERTY REMAINS IN VIOLATION.
IN SPEAKING WITH THE OWNER, SHE IS AWARE OF THE REQUIREMENTS TO REMOVE THE ITEMS FROM THE PROPERTY.
NOT SIMPLY RELOCATE IT TO UNDERNEATH THE CAR PORT AS WAS DONE.
THE TAX RECORD SHOWS ALL TAXES ARE CURRENT AND HAVE HISTORICALLY BEEN PAID.
I BELIEVE IT IS REASONABLE TO ASSUME THAT ANY WORK, THIS BOARD ORDERS WILL BE PAID BY THE PROPERTY OWNER OR THROUGH THE ASSESSMENT PROCESS.
I VISITED THE PROPERTY TODAY AND SPOKE WITH THE OCCUPANTS.
THE IMPRESSION I WAS PUT UNDER WAS THEY ARE, UM, WE'LL BE MOVING OUT OF THE PROPERTY FORTHWITH.
I EXPLAINED TO THEM THAT IF THEY SIMPLY SEALED THE SILVA, WHICH IS STILL UNDER THE CAR, 40 OF THOSE FAIR, HARD TO SEE AND PLACED IT AT THE CURB THAT THEIR TRASH HOLLER WOULD REMOVE IT.
I SAID, IF YOU PUT IT AT THE CURB AND YOUR TRASH HAUL REMOVES WHAT? BEFORE THE CITY CONTRACTOR COMES BY NO HARM, NO FOUL.
IF THE BOARD SUPPORTERS A STAFF RECOMMENDATION IS THE BOARD DECLARE THE PROPERTY, A NUISANCE, THE BOARD ORDERS STAFF TO HAVE THE CITY CONTRACTOR ABATE THE PROPERTY.
WHAT IS SOMETHING THAT'S BEING STORED? YES, IT'S A SOFA, A SOFA SOFA.
SO THE SOFA THAT'S SEWING THERE.
NOW UNDERNEATH THE CAR PORT TUCKED BACK THE N S YEAH.
THEY, THEY THOUGHT THE SIMPLY MOVING IT OFF THE FRONT OF THE HOUSE UNDERNEATH THE CAR PORT WAS, WOULD MAKE THE PROPERTY COMPLIANT.
I EXPLAINED TO HIM THE DAY, WELL, I'VE EXPLAINED IT TO THE OWNER ON THE PHONE WEEKS AGO.
I EXPLAINED TO THE DAY IN PERSON THAT IT'S NOT SUFFICIENT.
SO THE PEOPLE LIVING IN THE HOUSE, ARE THEY THE PROPERTY OWNERS OR TO MY KNOWLEDGE, THEY ARE THE PROPERTY OWNERS, BUT I, THE INFORMATION I RECEIVED THE DAY, IT WAS, THEY ARE
[00:10:01]
VACATING THE PROPERTY, UH, REASONABLY SOON.AND HE SEEMED TO THE YOUNG MAN I SPOKE TO, SEEMED TO BE INDICATING ALL THAT STUFF WILL BE GONE.
IF IT'S NOT, THEN WE WILL REMOVE IT.
DO WE KNOW WHEN THEIR TRASH PICKUP DATE IS, HAS IT COME AND GONE? IT HASN'T COME AND GONE YET THOUGH.
SO THEY ACTUALLY STILL HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO PICK IT OUT.
I TOLD THEM, I SAID, IF YOU PLACE IT AT THE CURB AND YOUR TRASH COMPANY REMOVES THEM BEFORE MY CONTRACTOR GETS HERE, THAT'S FINE.
IF MY CONTRACTOR ARRIVES TO REMOVE IT, DOESN'T MATTER IF THAT'S THE TRASH DAY OR NOT, HE'S GOING TO REMOVE IT.
AND THEY'VE HAD, THIS IS OUR SECOND MEETING.
WE'VE HAD THIS IN VIOLATION FOR MONTHS.
I'M GOING TO PROBABLY SINCE, WELL, TWO MEETINGS BACK.
SO, BECAUSE THIS WAS ON THE, THE LAST MEETING'S AGENDA THAT WE WERE UNABLE TO HAVE.
AND I'VE HAD CONVERSATIONS WITH THE LADY THAT LIVES THERE ON A COUPLE OF OCCASIONS, SHE'S VERY AWARE AND WE'VE BEEN MONITORING IT.
AND SHE WAS MADE, IT WAS MADE VERY CLEAR TO HER WHAT SHE NEEDED TO DO TO BECOME COMPLIANT THAT STORING IT UNDER THE CARPORT WAS NOT COMPLIANT.
EMAILS HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? DOES THIS FURNITURE NEED TO BE WRAPPED AS WELL? YES, MA'AM.
I EXPLAINED TO THEM THAT IF THEY WANT THEIR TRASH HOLDER REMOVE IT, IT MUST BE SEALED IN PLASTIC, DRAPING, A PLASTIC SHEET OVER IT TO KEEP IT DRY IS NOT THE PURPOSE.
AND SHE SEEMED TO BE AWARE OF THAT.
WHEN I SPOKE TO HER, SHE ACKNOWLEDGED, SHE KNEW THAT TODAY, WHEN I SPOKE WITH HER, ANY OTHER QUESTIONS, ANYONE HAVE A MOTION MOVE.
WE DECLARE PROPERTY NUISANCE AND ORDER THE KIT, THE CITY CONTRACTOR TO ABATE THE PROPERTY.
UH, SO MOTION CARRIES FOR PMR B CASE 22 DASH ZERO NINE.
NEXT UP IS PMR B CASE 22, 10 DASH 10.
UH, THE PROPERTY OWNER DAVID HILL WAS IN VIOLATION OF SECTION 13, 13, AND THE PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODE THAT PROPERTY LOCATED AT 57 69 WAYNE GATE ROAD.
MR. CHAIRMAN, UH, 24 LETTER WAS MAILED HERE ON MARCH 3RD.
THE MOST RECENT WAS SEPTEMBER OF 2021.
THE RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY AT 5 7, 6, 9 WAITING TO GATE ROAD IS IN VIOLATION OF THE CITY'S PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODE, SECTION 13, 13 0 4 H ONE REGARDING EXTERIOR MAINTENANCE THAT'S SPECIFIC GOAL.
YOUR PLACEMENT OF DETACHED SOVEREIGNS CITY CODE READS AS FOLLOWS.
THE EXTERIOR OF A STRUCTURE SHALL BE MAINTAINED IN GOOD REPAIR, STRUCTURALLY SOUND AND SANITARY.
SO AS NOT TO POSE A THREAT TO THE PUBLIC SAFETY OR WELFARE, THE OWNER SHALL KEEP THE EXTERIOR OF ALL PREMISES AND EVERY STRUCTURE THEY'RE ON A GOOD REPAIR INSPECTION VERIFIES THE PROPERTY DOES NOT MEET THE STANDARDS SET FORTH IN THE CODE.
THEREFORE, THE PROPERTY IS IN VIOLATION.
CITY'S ZONING LETTERS HAVE NOT BEEN RETURNED YET.
THE PROPERTY REIGNS IN VIOLATION, THERE HAS BEEN NO COMMUNICATION WITH THE CODE ENFORCEMENT OFFICE FOR ANYONE INVOLVED WITH PROPERTY.
THE TAX RECORD SHOWS ALL TAXES ARE CURRENT AND HAVE STORAGE HAD BEEN PAID.
I BELIEVE IT IS REASONABLE TO ASSUME THAT ANY WORK, HIS BOARD ORDERS WOULD PAY BY THE PROPERTY OWNER OR THROUGH THE ASSESSMENT PROCESS.
ADDITIONALLY, I'VE VISITED THIS PROPERTY TODAY, MYSELF AS WELL.
THEY ARE NOT AS, THEY'RE NOT AS BAD AS THEY ARE THERE.
THE PROPERTY OWNER ATTEMPTS TO PUSH THEM BACK UP INTO THE CHANNEL.
IN MY OPINION, THERE ARE ANIMALS THAT ARE THAT'S IT'S ANIMAL INTRUSION.
UM, THAT'S ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO DEFEAT ONCE THEY'VE MADE A HOME IN THERE, BUT WE ARE NOT INVOLVED WITH ANIMAL REMOVAL.
SO, AND I, AGAIN, TRIED CONTACTING SOMEONE WHILE I WAS THERE TODAY.
NO ONE ANSWERED THE DOOR, BUT, UH, WE STILL HAVE SOLVENTS ON BOTH EAVES, THE UPPER AND THE LOWER THAT ARE DETACHED AND NEED TO BE AT THE VERY LEAST, WE NEED TO CORRECT THEM AS BEST WE CAN.
THEREFORE, STAFF RECOMMENDATION IS THE BOARD, DECLARE THE PROPERTY, A NUISANCE, THE BOARD OR STAFF TO HAVE THE CITY CONTRACT, TO REPAIR THE PROPERTY.
IT LOOKS LIKE THERE MIGHT BE SOME SORT OF DAMAGE TO THE ROOF AS WELL,
[00:15:01]
OR IS THAT PARTLY SOFFIT? UM, I BE HONEST WITH YOU.I THINK PROBABLY BECAUSE OF THE TYPE OF MATERIAL IT IS, THE CHANNEL IT'S ON THERE.
UM, MOST, IF THERE'S ANY WATER INTUITION IT'S GOING TO DRAIN RIGHT BACK THROUGH THE SOFTENING, BECAUSE IT'S PERFORATED FOR LACK OF A BETTER WORD, AS FAR AS DAMAGE TO THE INTERIOR, THAT'S UNCOMMON AS A RESULT OF ANIMAL INTRUSION, THEY SIMPLY FIND A PLACE, A PLACE TO NEST TO FORAGE, ET CETERA.
SO THE BIGGEST PROBLEM IS ARE WE BACK HERE IN SIX MONTHS BECAUSE THE ANIMALS ARE STILL LOOKING FOR, OR GOING BACK HOME? WELL, WHEN I WAS CURIOUS, HOW WAS THAT BLACK SPOT UNDERNEATH THE WINDOW THERE? UH, THAT, I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S A SHINGLE OR A BRANCH WHEN I WAS THERE TOO.
AND WHEN I WAS THERE TODAY, UM, AND I KNOW THERE HAVE BEEN SOME, THERE'S BEEN SOME WORK DOWN THERE.
MY INSPECTOR WHO'S IN THAT AREA ON A REGULAR BASIS HAS SEEN PEOPLE WORKING AT THE PROPERTY.
SO IF IT, YOU KNOW, THAT MAY BE SIMPLY SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN REPAIRED OR IS JUST A SHINGLE OF SEPARATION, BUT WE WOULD NOT TYPICALLY ASK FOR THE BOARD TO HAVE US DO ANY STRUCTURAL REPAIRS.
UM, THAT'S NOT SOMETHING THAT I'M COMFORTABLE WITH ASKING OUR CONTRACTOR TO DO.
ANYONE ELSE WITH ANY QUESTIONS? ALL RIGHT.
COULD I HAVE A MOTION PLEASE? I'LL MAKE A MOTION TO DECLARE THE PROPERTY A NUISANCE AND, UM, WHATEVER SHOULD HAPPEN, UM, FOR THE CITY CODE TO BE UP FOR THE VEHICLE CODE COMPLIANCE.
SHOULD WE HAVE A SECOND? SECOND? ALL RIGHTY.
SO MOTION CARRIES FOR PMR B CASE 22 DASH 10.
AND JUST TO BE CLEAR, WE HAVE, UH, AFFIRMED THE MOTION TO ABATE THE PROPERTY AND HAVE THE CONTRACTOR, UH, TAKE CARE OF THIS.
CAN YOU PLAY A MICROPHONE UP JUST A BIT? YOU CAN'T HEAR ME CORRECT.
PMR B CASE 22 DASH 11, THE PROPERTY OWNER CARE AND HOLDINGS LLC IS IN VIOLATION OF SECTION 13, 13 OF THE PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODE AT PROPERTY LOCATED AT 65 0 9 HARSHMAN AVAIL ROAD.
AND MR. CHAIRMAN, THE NORMAL COURSE OF LETTERS WAS SENT AS WELL.
THE NOTIFICATION OF THIS HEARING THAT WAS SENT BY CERTIFIED MAIL WAS NOT CLAIMED AT THE POST OFFICE.
SO, UM, THE VIOLATION OF THIS CASE, THE RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY AT 65 0 9 HARSH MOOGLE ROAD IS IN VIOLATION OF THE CITY'S PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODE, SECTION 13, 13 0 5 B REGARDING FENCE MAINTENANCE.
THERE ARE LARGE SECTIONS OF FENCING THAT ARE MISSING WITH ONLY POSTS LEFT IN THE GROUND.
13, 13 0 5 B STATES, ALL FENCES RETAINING WALLS ARE SIMILAR STRUCTURES.
SO I'LL BE ANKLE ANCHORED FIRMLY IN THE GROUND AND SHALL BE CONSTRUCTED IN A WORKMAN-LIKE MANNER AND MAINTAINED TO THEN SAY, MANNER OR REMOVED OR REPLACED INSPECTION VERIFIES THE PROPERTY DOES NOT MEET THE STANDARDS SET FORTH IN THE CODE, THE FOUR FOR THE PROPERTIES AND A VIOLATION CITY ZONING LETTERS MAILED TO THE OWNER OF THE RECORD HAVE NOT BEEN RETURNED YET.
THEIR PROPERTY REMAINS IN VIOLATION.
THERE HAS BEEN NO COMMUNICATION WITH THE CODE ENFORCEMENT OFFICE, FROM ANYONE INVOLVED WITH THE PROPERTY, THE TAX RECORDS SHOW A PROPERTY TAXES HAVE BEEN HISTORICALLY PAID.
I BELIEVE IT IS REASONABLE TO ASSUME THAT ANY WORK, THIS BOARD ORDERS WILL BE PAID TO EITHER PROPERTY OWNER OR THROUGH THE ASSESSMENT PROCESS.
ADDITIONALLY, IN THIS CASE, UH, I WILL HAVE THE CONTRACTOR REMOVE ALL OF THE POSTS AND ALL THE REMAINING FENCING, A STAFF RECOMMENDATION IS THE BOARD DECLARED THE PROPERTY, A NUISANCE AND THE BOARD ORDER STAFF TO HAVE THE CITY CONTRACT OR ABATE THE PROPERTY.
ANY QUESTIONS? ANYONE I'VE GOT A QUESTION IS THE FENCE ALL THE WAY AROUND THE HOUSE OR JUST ALONG THE SIDE, THAT IS A CORNER HOUSE.
SO IT IS ALONG THE FRONT AND THE SIDE.
THAT'S THE CORNER OF HARSH MELVILLE AND CHAMBERSBURG.
THE REST OF IT DOES NOT HAVE FENCING ON THE REAR.
THERE IS SOME SHARED CHAIN LINK FENCING BETWEEN THIS HOUSE AND THE NEIGHBOR TO THE NORTH, BUT THAT'S NOT AN ISSUE HERE.
THIS IS STRICTLY THE PRIVACY FENCING.
THAT'S DILAPIDATED THAT YOU'RE VIEWING IN THAT PHOTO.
[00:20:01]
SO WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IS THAT YOU'VE GOT TO REMOVE, I'LL HAVE THE REMOVE EVERYTHING.THE, I DON'T THINK IT'S STRUCTURALLY SOUND.
UH, I'M NOT GOING TO HAVE A, WE'RE NOT GOING TO SPEND MONEY, PUTTING A NEW FENCE UP FOR, UH, AN OWNER WHO WON'T TAKE CARE OF THEIR PROPERTY DESPITE OUR BEST EFFORTS.
THE PROPERTY ON IT IS IT IS NOT OWNER OCCUPIED.
NO, MA'AM, THIS IS A RENTAL PROPERTY.
UH, THIS LANDLORD, UM, HAS A FEW, HAS HAD A FEW PROPERTIES THROUGHOUT THE CITY OVER THE YEARS.
I'M CURIOUS WHEN IT COMES TO, THIS IS LIKE, THIS IS A BORDER FENCE ALONG THE BORDER BETWEEN THIS AND OTHER PROPERTY, CORRECT.
THIS, THE CHAIN LINK FENCE ON THE NORTH IS SHARED WITH A PROPERTY TO NORTH.
THIS THAT YOU'RE VIEWING HERE IS STRICTLY ALONG THE CHAMBERSBURG ROAD.
UH, THIS HOUSE ACTUALLY BACKS UP TO THE PARK ACROSS FROM THE HIGH SCHOOL.
SO THE REAR OF IT, THERE IS NO PRIVACY FENCING ALONG THERE, I THINK AS LONG BEEN GONE.
SO WE'RE LOOKING AT THE REMNANTS OF WHAT WAS THERE HISTORICALLY THAT HAS BEEN MAINTAINED.
SO AS IT'S COME APART, THEY'VE SIMPLY NOT DONE ANYTHING WITH IT.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? ANYONE HAVE A MOTION, PLEASE? MAY I MAKE A MOTION THAT WE DECLARE THE PROPERTY IN THE CASE OF 22, 11 NUISANCE, AND THAT WE ALLOW THE CITY CONTRACTOR TO PERFORM WHATEVER NECESSARY REPAIRS TO BRING IT UP TO CODE.
SECOND, WE HAVE A VOTE PLEASE.
SO MOTION CARRIES FOR BMR B CASE 22 DASH 11.
NEXT CASE PMR B CASE 22 DASH 12.
UM, THE PROPERTY OWNER MINERVA DYSON IS IN VIOLATION OF SECTION 13, 13, AND A PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODE THAT PROPERTY LOCATED AT 63 33 BLACKFOOT DRIVE.
AND MR. CHAIRMAN, THE, UH, THE OWNER IS DECEASED.
UM, THE NORMAL COURSE OF LETTERS WERE MAILED NONETHELESS AS IS OUR PROCESS.
THIS IS IN THE MIAMI VILLAS FLAT OFF OF
UH, THE RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY AT 63 33 BLACK FOOT DRIVE IS IN VIOLATION OF THE CITY'S PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODE, SECTION 13 TO 1304 H ONE REGARDING EXTERIOR MAINTENANCE OF STRUCTURES.
THERE ARE OPEN DOORS ON THE HOUSE AND SHED AS WELL AS OPEN WINDOWS ON THE HOUSE.
THERE IS EVIDENCE OF TRESPASSING INTO THE HOUSE AND VANDALISM THERE IN THE CONDITION OF THE PROPERTY IS HAVING A BLIGHTING INFLUENCE ON ADJACENT PROPERTIES AND THE NEIGHBORHOOD AS A WHOLE SECTION 13, 13 0 4 H ONE STATES, THE EXTERIOR OF A STRUCTURE SHALL BE MAINTAINED IN GOOD REPAIR STRUCTURALLY SOUND AND SANITARY.
SO AS NOT TO POSE A THREAT TO THE PUBLIC HEALTH, SAFETY OR WELFARE, THE OWNER SHALL KEEP THE EXTERIOR ALL PREMISES AND EVERY STRUCTURE THEY'RE ON IN GOOD REPAIR INSPECTION VERIFIES THE PROPERTY DOES NOT MEET THE STANDARDS SET FORTH IN THE CODE.
THEREFORE, THE PROPERTY IS IN VIOLATION.
CITY'S ZONING LETTERS MAILED TO THE OWNER OF RECORD HAVE BEEN RETURNED ON THE PROPERTY, REMAINS IN VIOLATION.
THERE HAS BEEN NO COMMUNICATION WITH THE CODE ENFORCEMENT OFFICE.
SO THE ANYONE INVOLVED WITH THE PROPERTY, THE TAX ORG, IT SHOWS PROPERTY ATTACK.
AS TAXES HAVE NOT BEEN PAID IN APPROXIMATELY 12 YEARS, THE CITY IS VERIFIED.
THE OWNER HAS BEEN DECEASED SINCE APRIL OF 2020.
I BELIEVE IT REASONABLE TO ASSUME THAT ANY WORK, THOSE BOARD ORDERS WILL BE ASSESSED TO THE PROPERTY.
AS CODE ENFORCEMENT HAS BUDGETED FOR THESE ABATEMENT COSTS, STAFF RECOMMENDATION.
IT'S COME TO MY ATTENTION THAT WE HAVE HAD A HOMELESS PROBLEM.
UH, WE'VE HAD SQUATTERS THERE BOTH INSIDE THE STRUCTURE, THE MAIN HOUSE, AND, UM, EVIDENTLY THE OVERHANGING YOU MAY SEE ON THAT STORAGE SHIT.
SO THAT'S ANOTHER REASON WE WANT TO GET THIS PROPERTY ABATED.
A STAFF RECOMMENDATION IS THE BOARD DECLARED THE PROPERTY, A NUISANCE, THE BOARD ORDER STAFF TO HAVE THE CITY CONTRACTOR ABATE THE PROPERTY.
IN THAT CASE, WE'LL, WE'LL REMOVE ALL JUNK FROM THE PROPERTY.
WE WILL BOARD ALL ENTRY POINTS OF BOTH THE HOUSE AND THE SHED MAKE IT AS SECURE AS WE CAN.
WE WILL REMOVE ANY VEGETATION THAT ALLOW SIGHT LINES TO BE BLOCKED.
SO WE'RE GOING TO TRY TO, TO ELIMINATE ANY HIDING SPOTS.
IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS I CAN ANSWER.
DID WE HAVE ANY KNOWLEDGE OF IT AS STATESMEN FOR THE DECEASED HERE? NO, I DON'T KNOW.
WE HAD A MAILING ADDRESS IN CHILLICOTHE,
[00:25:01]
OHIO THAT I FOUND, UM, AND SIMPLY NO COMMUNICATION FROM ANYONE WHO MAY HAVE BEEN RECEIVING THAT MAIL.WE ARE NOT SURE WHO THAT MAY HAVE BEEN.
UH, SOME OF THE INFORMATION I'VE RECEIVED IS FROM A NEIGHBOR, ALSO SPOKE WITH THE NEIGHBOR'S SON AND, UH, SHE WAS AWARE THAT, UH, THE OWNER WAS DECEASED, HAD BEEN FOR A WHILE.
SO, UM, OUR INVESTIGATION VERIFIED THAT BY DEATH NOTICE, WE FOUND, BUT AS FAR AS IT CAN GET, AS FAR AS THE STATE IS CONCERNED OR PROBATE, I HAVE NO IDEA.
AND YOU SAID THERE'S BEEN A HOMELESS PROBLEM.
IS THE PROPERTY CURRENTLY OCCUPIED OR HAS IT BEEN NO, IT'S VACANT.
IT'S BEEN WELL OFFICIALLY VACANT.
SO IF YOU WERE TO ABATE THIS PROPERTY AND KEEP, BRING IT UP TO WHATEVER LEVEL OF CODE THAT YOU POSSIBLY COULD, WHAT WOULD HAPPEN SHOULD, UM, SOME VAGRANTS OR SOMETHING, GET IN THERE AND OPEN IT UP AGAIN.
WILL YOU GO BACK AND DO IT I'LL OFTEN, WOULD YOU DO WELL? THE WAY WE BOARD PROPERTIES, UM, MY CONTRACTOR BOARDS, PROPERTIES, FASCIA YOU'D HAVE ABOUT HALF TO TEAR IT APART TO GET IN.
WE'LL USE PROBABLY HALF INCH PLYWOOD OR ORIENTED STRAND BOARD TO BOARD ALL THE WINDOWS IN THE HOUSE.
WE'LL DO THE SAME ON THE SHED.
UM, WE'LL MAKE IT AS SECURE AS WE POSSIBLY CAN.
THIS PART OF THE COMMUNITY HAS A LOT OF PROPERTIES THAT ALLOW TRANSIENT TRAFFIC.
IN FACT, WE, YOU MAY RECALL THIS BOARD, UH, WE TORE ONE DOWN ON RIP WRAPPER THAT IT BURNT RIGHT, LITERALLY ACROSS THE STREET FROM THIS ONE.
SO IT'S AN AREA THAT IT'S COMMON FOR THERE TO BE HOMELESS FOLKS, UH, WHO LOOK LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO STAY WARM AND DRY WE'LL OCCUPY WHILE WE WANT TO DO IS MAKE IT AS IMPOSSIBLE AS WE CAN FOR THEM TO OCCUPY THOSE STRUCTURES.
REMIND ME OF OTHER PROCESSES THAT THE CITY GOES THROUGH.
IF SOMEBODY IS DECEASED AND THERE IS NO OWNER THAT STEPS FORWARD, IS THERE A PERIOD OF TIME THAT WE WAIT AND THEN IT FALLS TO THE CITY? WELL, ALL PROPERTY MAINTENANCE ISSUES ARE GIVEN THEIR DUE PROCESS, REGARDLESS OF THE OWNERSHIP.
UH, THE OWNERS ARE ULTIMATELY RESPONSIBLE FOR MAINTAINING THEIR PROPERTIES, WHETHER THEY LIVE IN THEM OR NOT.
THEY'LL ALSO, THE OWNERS WILL BEAR ANY COSTS THAT THE CITY INCURS FOR MAINTAINING THEIR PROPERTY ON THEIR BEHALF.
SO A NORMAL COURSE OF LETTERS IS A WARNING NOTICE SEVEN DAY REINSPECT VIOLATION LETTER 10 DAY REINSPECT, 24 HOUR NOTICE.
THEN WE EITHER BRING IT TO THIS BOARD OR WE FILE THEM IN COURT.
AND THAT'S, THAT'S OUR PROCESS.
THAT'S OUR DUE PROCESS AS HOW THIS BOARD, THAT'S WHAT ENABLES THIS BOARD TO ORDER THE CITY TO A BETA PROPERTY, REGARDLESS OF THE STATE OF OWNERSHIP.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? ANYONE HAVE A MOTION, PLEASE.
I WILL MAKE A MOTION THAT WE DECLARE THIS PROPERTY, A NUISANCE AND HAT AND CONSIDER IT A BID TO HAVE THE CITY OF BAIT THE PROPERTY.
SECOND, WE HAVE A VOTE PLEASE.
SO MOTION CARRIES FOUR PMR V CASE 22 DASH 12.
AND MOVING ON PMR B CASE 22 DASH 13.
UM, THE PROPERTY OWNER OWNER, JULIA INVESTMENTS, LLC IS IN VIOLATION OF SECTION 13, 13 OF THE PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODE, THAT PROPERTY LOCATED AT 58 50 BRANT PIKE.
AND I'M HAPPY TO REPORT THAT AS OF THE 27TH OF JUNE, THIS PROPERTY IS COMPLIANT.
I REQUESTED THE BOARD DISMISSED THE PROPERTY.
THAT IS NOT THE PROPERTY YOU'RE LOOKING AT CURRENTLY.
SO, UH, THE RECOMMENDATION IS TO, UH, WE DISMISS THIS CASE.
COULD I HAVE A MOTION PLEASE? AND WHEN WE DISMISS THIS CASE, ALL RIGHT, HAVE A SECOND.
WHO SECONDED? MARILYN? YOU GUYS WERE SOUNDS ALIKE.
SO MOTION CARRIES TO DISMISS CASE PMR B CASE 22 DAYS.
13 APPROACHED YOU TO STOP WRITING.
[00:30:01]
WHICH IS OUR FINAL CASE FOR THIS EVENING IS PMR B CASE 22 DAYS 14.UM, THE PROPERTY OWNER, AMBER FINE IS IN VIOLATION OF SECTION 13, 13 OF PROPERTY MAINTENANCE CODE AT PROPERTY LOCATED AT 56 69 BUTKINS ROAD.
MR. CHAIRMAN, THIS IS AN OUTDOOR STORAGE AND USE VIOLATION.
A NORMAL COURSE OF THREE LETTERS WAS MAILED THE RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY AT 5, 6, 6, 9 BOTKINS ROAD IS IN VIOLATION OF SECTION 13, 13 0 4 H SIX REGARDING OUTDOOR STORAGE OF ITEMS THAT ARE NOT INTENDED FOR OUTDOOR STORAGE AND OR USE.
AS YOU SEE IN THE CASE REPORT PHOTO, THE REAR COVERED PATIO IS FULL OF JUNK AND DISCARDED ITEMS. THIS ACCUMULATIONS HAVING A BLIGHTING INFLUENCE ON ADJACENT PROPERTIES, SECTION 13, 13 0 4 H SIX STATES, A ANY ITEMS USED RESTORED STORED OUTSIDE OF AN ENCLOSED BUILDING OR STRUCTURE SHALL BE LIMITED TO ITEMS MANUFACTURED FOR INTENDED FOR CUSTOMARILY USED IN AN OUTDOOR ENVIRONMENT, NO ITEMS MANUFACTURED FOUR IN 10 AND FOUR ARE CUSTOMARILY AND STORED OR USED INDOORS MAY BE PLACED RESTORED OUTSIDE.
PARAGRAPH B ALL PERMISSIBLE ITEMS STORED OUTSIDE MUST BE IN GOOD CONDITION AND USABLE AS INTENDED BY THE MANUFACTURERS.
NO SUCH ITEMS THAT ARE BROKEN DILAPIDATED OR DISCARDED SHALL BE STORED OUTSIDE INSPECTION VERIFIES THE PROPERTY DOES NOT MEET THE STANDARDS SET FORTH OF THE CODE.
THEREFORE, THE PROPERTY IS IN VIOLATION.
CITY ZONING LETTERS MAILED TO THE OWNER OF RECORD HAVE NOT BEEN RETURNED ON THE PROPERTY, REMAINS IN VIOLATION.
THERE HAS BEEN NO COMMUNICATION WITH THE GOAT ENFORCEMENT OFFICE FOR MANY ONE INVOLVED WITH THE PROPERTY.
THE TAX RECORDS SHOWS PROPERTY ATTACK TAXES ARE CURRENTLY IN ARREARS FOR AROUND $11,000.
I BELIEVE IT'S REASONABLE TO ASSUME THAT ANY WORK THAT IS BOARD ORDERS WILL BE ASSESSED TO THE PROPERTY.
AS CODE ENFORCEMENT HAS BUDGETED FOR THESE ABATEMENT COSTS.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION IS THE BOARD DECLARED PROPERTY, A NUISANCE BOARD ORDER, THE STAFF TO HAVE THE CITY CONTRACTOR, A BAIT AT THE PROPERTY.
ANY QUESTIONS? ANYONE? THE PROPERTY IS CURRENTLY OCCUPIED.
I INSPECTED THE PROPERTY TODAY.
MYSELF, UH, DOES LOOK ANY BETTER.
THERE'S A CAR IN THE DRIVEWAY WITH AN EXPIRED TAG ON IT.
A LOT OF OVERGROWTH ALONG THE FRONT OF THE HOUSE.
WHEN I THROUGH IT, IT APPEARS THERE IS A PILE OF ACCUMULATED MAIL ON THE GROUND NEXT TO THE LORD MAIL IN THE SCREEN.
SO MY ASSUMPTION IS A PROBABLY IS NOT OCCUPIED.
FURTHERMORE, TO HAVE THE OFFICER THAT PATROLS THAT AREA, OPEN UP A NEW WHO ISOLATION ON THAT PROPERTY, UM, TO BRING BACK TO THIS BOARD, ASSUMING THE OWNER DOESN'T BECOME COMPLIANT TO REMOVE ALL OF THIS EXTREME OVERGROWTH AROUND THE FRONT OF THE PROPERTY.
UM, I DON'T KNOW THAT WE CAN LEGALLY REMOVE THE MALE, BUT I WILL BE CHECKING WITH THE POSTMASTERS, UH, THE POST MANAGER OF THE POST OFFICE LOCALLY TO SEE IF WE HAVE PERMISSION TO DO THAT.
IF AFTER A CERTAIN POINT IN TIME, WE'RE NOT BREAKING FEDERAL LAW BY REMOVING MAIL.
BUT IN THE MEANTIME, WE'RE GOING TO GET THAT BACK.
AND MY CONTRACTOR HAS A VERY GOOD EYE FOR THAT.
AND HE WON'T TAKE ANYTHING THAT IS ABUSE.
UM, BUT IT APPEARS IT'S AN ABANDONED PROPERTY.
DOES IT, HOW LONG HAS THIS STEP BEEN THERE OR ARE PEOPLE JUST WALKING UP ON THE PROPERTY PUTTING THIS STUFF? NO, NO, I DON'T BELIEVE SO.
THIS, THIS HAS BEEN LIKE THIS.
UM, IT WAS LIKE THIS LAST YEAR, UH, OUR CUTTER ACTUALLY TOOK THIS PHOTO ARE CAUSE WE'VE HAD HIM THERE TWICE.
I THINK, TO GOT THE GRASS THIS YEAR.
CAUSE IT'S IN VIOLATION AGAIN.
UM, SO IT'S HARD TO SAY TYPICALLY IN THESE SITUATIONS TO WATCH YOUR AD, AS SOMEONE WHO'S ACCUMULATED THESE ITEMS, THEY DON'T HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THEM.
YOU'LL NOTICE THERE ARE TWO LAWNMOWERS VISIBLE.
THERE'S A THIRD ONE ON THE SIDE OF THE HOUSE.
A LOT OF TIMES THESE ARE FOLKS WHO CUMULATE ONE THING TO REPLACE ANOTHER, KEEP THEM ON THE BACK PORCH.
AND THE NEXT THING YOU KNOW, THEY'VE GOT THREE OR FOUR LAWN MOWERS.
UM, THE S THE GARAGE IN THIS, ON THIS PROPERTY IS LIVABLE SPACE.
THEREFORE, THEY DON'T HAVE ANY REALISTIC STORAGE SPACE IF YOU WILL IN THE HOUSE.
SO THIS USUALLY HOW THESE THINGS COME ABOUT, IT ALSO LOOKS LIKE THE, UH, PATIO COVER THERE IS ABOUT TO FALL DOWN.
WE HOPE THAT IT DOESN'T DO THAT BEFORE WE GET ALL THAT STUFF OFF THERE.
AND YOU SAID NO ONE, MAYBE NOT AS FAR AS I CAN
[00:35:01]
DETERMINE.I CAN'T IMAGINE ANYONE'S LIVING THERE FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS.
THE CAR IN THE GARAGE IN THE DRIVEWAY HAS AN EXPIRED PLATE ON IT.
THE PILE OF MAIL AT THE FRONT DOOR, IT DOESN'T APPEAR.
ANYONE'S BEEN IN AND OUT OF THREAT DOOR THAT COULD BE GOING IN AND OUT OF THE BACK DOOR, BUT THE DISCARD, A MALE, AND I HAVE OTHER WAYS TO DETERMINE WHETHER IT'S BEING OCCUPIED.
I HAVE DEPARTMENTS I CAN CALL THAT WILL TELL ME IF UTILITIES ARE INCREASING, ET CETERA.
NONETHELESS, WE'RE GOING TO CLEAN IT UP.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? ANYONE HAVE A MOTION, PLEASE MAKE THE MOTION.
I MOVED AT THE BOARD, DECLARED THE PROPERTY, A NUISANCE AND THE BOARD OR THE STAFF TO HAVE THE CITY CONTRACTOR MAKE THE PROPERTY.
ANY ADDITIONAL BUSINESS THAT SAYS NOT ON THE AGENDA? NO OTHER ADDITIONAL BUSINESS.
AND THEN, UH, MOVING ON WITH THE AGENDA HERE.
AND IF THERE IS NO OBJECTION, I WILL APPROVE THE MINUTES FOR THE MARCH 24TH, 2022 MEETING.
AND THE JUNE 9TH, 2022 MEETING.
UPCOMING MEETINGS IS JULY THE 28TH AND THEN AUGUST THE 11TH.
SO I EXPECT TO BE BACK HERE AND ALL BY THE 28TH.
THOSE CASES HAVE WE'RE CANCELING THE JULY 28TH.
I WILL NOW ENTERTAIN A MOTION TO ADJOURN.
