not been done. The vacant building registration fees were delinquent in the amount of $1,000, and
the $5,000 performance bond had not been posted. On May 6, 2008, an inspection of the building
was done and a list of deficiencies which constitute a nuisance condition was developed. An order
to abate a nuisance building was posted on May 30, 2008 with a compliance date of 3une 30, 2008.

cost for demolition was estimated to be approximately $7,830 to $10,830. There had also been
three summary abatements issued to this property since 2007, two of which went to work order:
remove improperly stored refuse and miscellaneous debris and cut tall grass and weeds. Code

presented photographs of the property.

block. HPC would encourage rehab of the building. Ms. Moermond asked if it maintains good
integrity. Ms. Barr stated that it maintains some of the early bungalow features.
Ms. Moermond asked if the interested parties are owners or developers. Mr. Franzen stated that he

the hearing.

money back. He stated that they started on the house being that iYs gutted and there was a crew
