The owner of record is Donald Kinney. The legal description of the property is Lot 22, Block 92, Aschs Subdivision of Lyman Daytons Addition. The building is a 12 story frame dwelling. This building is in a very deteriorated and dilapidated condition and should be wrecked and removed. The exterior is covered with an aluminum siding which is bent,. dented, and badly damaged with some sections missing. Roof cornice and mouldings are loose, have dry rot, and have some pieces missing. Window sills and trim have dry rot and show signs of deterioration. Paint is peeling and blistering exposing wood trim to the weather. The porch decks of the two front porches are sagging badly. The porch windows are broken and the sash has dry rot. The steps to the front door are missing. The chimneys above the roof line have brick that are spalling and are deteriorated. The roof at the northeast part of the house has collapsed due to dry rot of the rafters and roof boards. There is evidence of numerous roof leaks. The interior of the dwelling is in a deteriorated condition. Ceil- ings and walls have large areas of plaster missing. Wood lath is exposed, broken, and protruding from the walls and ceilings. The finished floor is badly cracked. Passage to the bathroom on sec- ond floor is through two bedrooms. 55 r f � � R s Madam President and City Council February 13 , 1973 (2� The basement stairs are in a dangerous condition. Stair stringers have dry rot, improperly supported, and are split. The concrete floor is broken up with large areas of concrete missing. Leaking basement plumbing has created an excessive moisture condition. Basement ceiling joist are undersized, over spanned and have dry rot. The Housing and Redevelopment Authority does not intend to acquire this property. The subject property is being boarded by contract labor through summary abatement procedures under ordinance number 15154 , Council file 259368. Inasmuch as the physical damage and the dilapidated condition out- lined above constitute a public hazard and the owner has made no attempt to satisfactorily repair the damage despite our warnings , and the continued vacant and boarded up condition contributes a blighting influence on the neighborhood, it is the recommendation of this bureau that this matter be referred to the City Attorney 's office for razing and removal through District C rt proceedings .

Butl �� Subject: 909 Fremont ���� Date: February 12, 1973 Our office received a telephone call from Mrs. George Robinson, 901 East Third Street, regarding a vacant house at 909 Fremont. The house is vacant and has been for approximately one month. There are rats on the premises and they are migrating to surrounding property. The house is structurally unsound. Mrs. Robinson is urging that this structure be condemned and torn down as it is degrading the neighborhood. kk Note: Our office received two additional calls from neighborhood residents stating the same as above, but they did not leave their names. Frank Staffenson notified our office that 5-6 loads of rubbish were removed by a compactor recently from the interior of the home. It is structurally unsound and overrun with rats.
