Madam President and
Members of the City Council
Re: 115 Winter Street
File #2192
Honorable Council:
The Division of Housing and Building Code Enforcement is hereby
submitting its report on the condition of the structure at the
location referred to above.
The owners of record are Herman Hiding - fee owner, Aelen Hagens
contract purchaser and Ralph Bravo Jr.
The legal description of the property is Lot 18, Block 1, Fletcher`s
Sub. of Brewster's Addition.
The building is a single family frame dwelling 22 ' x 54 ` .
The two chimneys above the roof line require tuck-pointing due to
eroded mortar joints. Pieces of the asbestos siding are broken
and missing. Roofing is weathered and in poor condition. The
roof cornice and trim have dry rot and have pieces missing. There
is dry rot in the structural members of the back porch causing
settling of the porch. Some of the window glass has been broken.
There is a partial basement with a dirt floor. The foundation
walls have eroded mortar joints. Floor joists have dry rot at
the east side of the dwelling. Posts which are used to support
the floor joist are resting on blocks of wood instead of a proper
concrete footing.
The first floor has five rooms and bath. The floors are sagging
due to excessive deflection and settlement. Plaster on the walls
and ceilings is cracked and in some areas has fallen off. The
bathroom is without a tub or shower. Doors are poor fitting due
to excessive settlement.

The attic is littered with debris. There are holes in the roof.
The electric wiring is inadequate and has been disconnected.
There is no central heating.
This property is not in an area with which the Housing and Re-
development Authority is concerned.
The subject property has been boarded up by the city since October
19, 1972.
This building has been vacant for over a year and has deteriorated
throughout due to lack of maintenance.
Inasmuch as the inadequate maintenance, the physical damage and
the dilapidated condition outlined above constitute a public hazard
and the owner has made no attempt to satisfactorily repair the dam-
age 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
Court proceedings.
