<br />REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL AGENDA ITEM <br /> <br />Agenda Date Requested: Mav 17. 2010 <br /> <br />Bude:et <br /> <br />Requested By: <br /> <br />D. Wilmore <br /> <br />Source of Funds: General Funds <br /> <br />Department: <br /> <br />Planning <br /> <br />Account Number: #001-9092-524-6021 <br /> <br />Report: X Resolution: <br /> <br />Ordinance: <br /> <br />X <br /> <br />Amount Budgeted: $45,65R.OO <br /> <br />Amount Requested: <br /> <br />Exhibits: Inspection Report <br /> <br />Budgeted Item: YES <br /> <br />NO <br /> <br />Exhibits: Ordinance <br /> <br />Exhibits <br /> <br />SUMMARY & RECOMMENDATION <br /> <br />The August 10,2009, October 12, 2009, December 14,2009, January 25,2010 and March 08, 2010 public hearing <br />for 401 N. 6th Street was continued until May 17, 2010. Subsequent to the first public hearing meeting, legal <br />notices, in accordance with Article VIII; Section 82-475 of the Code of Ordinances, were provided to the structure <br />owner. The individual attended each public hearing and was aware of the continuances granted by Council. Staff <br />also sent meeting reminder letters. <br /> <br />An April 30, 2010 site visit to 401 N. 6th Street showed no change. Also, on the same date, I spoke with the owner <br />(Mary Riley) by phone and she advised she has been unsuccessful in getting financial assistance so she is in the <br />process of selling the property. She has a document stating an expected closing date on or before May 19,2010. <br /> <br />I spoke with the realtor on May 1, 2010 and she explained they are reviewing the heirship documents/ title so the <br />exact closing date is unknown at this time. The realtor is part of a company that typically purchases property, makes <br />repairs and then resells the property. <br /> <br />The structure was damaged by fire in October 2005 and the purpose of this public hearing is to receive property <br />owner, citizen and staff comments as to why the structure should or should not be condemned and demolished. <br /> <br />Based on this new information, the recommendation of the Dangerous Building Inspections Board is to table the <br />structure and continue the public hearing for 90-days. This will allow us an opportunity to follow-up on the possible <br />ownership change, provide notifications and schedule meetings with the new owner. <br /> <br />Action ReQuired bv Council: <br /> <br /> <br />Co lder t bling the structure and continuing the public hearing for 90-days or other action regarding the structure at <br />4 1 N. 6th treet <br /> <br />~;;,~ <br /> <br />.
