Appeal of Sandra Wallace to a Certificate of Occupancy Revocation, which includes Condemnation, for property at 1065 Hatch Avenue. Sandra Wallace, appellant, appeared. She stated that she did not know the property was condemned until she saw the placard on the building as the landlord had not notified her of any orders against the property. She said she needed additional time to find another place to live as she worked nights. Leanna Shaff, DSI - Fire Inspector Supervisor, stated that Inspector Barb Cumuiings inspected the property on 5eptember 16, 2009 and was unable to gain enriy as the owner did not show up for the appoinhnent. No one else was home at the time to allow the inspector access to the building. The inspector condemned the building as Xcel had locked the gas service; however, the electric and water were still on. The inspector then contacted the owner who indicated that the building was vacant and that her attorney had told them not to have anything more to do with the building after they filed banlffuptcy. The inspector ordered an immediate vacate of the building. Ms. Moermond asked who was responsible for the payment of the utilities. Ms. Wallace responded that she paid the water and electric and the landlard was responsible for paying the gas. She acknowledged she lrnew she needed to find another place to live and asked if she could have month to be able to move out. Ms. Moermond responded that since there was no responsible owner and the gas had been turned off, she recommended denying the appeal and granting an extension to October 6 to vacate the building.
