Once the water froze on the sidewalk, it was di�cuh to remove. The city just threw sand on the snow and the assessment is too high for that. The owner stated this problem will not happen again. Also, he never received notice of this abatement beforehand. Gerry Strathman stated the costs for the assessment include the crew, equipment, hearings, and notices that are sent out. The city is recovering costs for taking care of the snow. There were complaints from neighbors. Guy Willits showed a video of the property. Chuck Votel reported the letters sent to the two listed owners were returned. A letter was then sent to the taz� person and that was not returned. 11ae pubiic sidewalk was plowed. Mr. Strathman recommended approval of the assessment. 2. Smmnary abatement appeal for 790 Laurel Avenue; Mary Dabney appellant. A picture was shown of the gazage. Mary Dabney appeared and stated she is cunently on AFDC, working temporarily, and looking for more work. The garage doors were stolen some time ago. She may be able to pay for new doors in August. Chuck Votel reported the garage is struchually sound, but it is against city ordinances to not have doors on a gazage. Open garages are an attraction to children and vandals.

Sharon Kerl appeared and stated she was interested in buying and rehabilitating the house. There was a fire, but the house could not have burned for more than ten minutes. Ms. Kerl asked what she couid do to inspect the proper[y and stop the demolition. Gerry Strathman responded a third party cannot intervene and Ms. Kerl would have to locate the owner to work out something. Unless something happens soon, the Council will probably ask it to be removed or repaired in 15 days. One of the councilmembers asked for this property to be rescheduled so there is a mix up in the scheduling at this point. However, the scheduled date for it to be heard will be posted on the building. 5. Resolution ordering the owner to remove or repair the reference building located at $50 Marvland Avenue East.

Once the water froze on the sidewalk, it was di�cuh to remove. The city just threw sand on the snow and the assessment is too high for that. The owner stated this problem will not happen again. Also, he never received notice of this abatement beforehand. Gerry Strathman stated the costs for the assessment include the crew, equipment, hearings, and notices that are sent out. The city is recovering costs for taking care of the snow. There were complaints from neighbors. Guy Willits showed a video of the property. Chuck Votel reported the letters sent to the two listed owners were returned. A letter was then sent to the taz� person and that was not returned. 11ae pubiic sidewalk was plowed. Mr. Strathman recommended approval of the assessment. 2. Smmnary abatement appeal for 790 Laurel Avenue; Mary Dabney appellant. A picture was shown of the gazage.

One of the councilmembers asked for this property to be rescheduled so there is a mix up in the scheduling at this point. However, the scheduled date for it to be heard will be posted on the building. 5. Resolution ordering the owner to remove or repair the reference building located at $50 Marvland Avenue East.

Once the water froze on the sidewalk, it was di�cuh to remove. The city just threw sand on the snow and the assessment is too high for that. The owner stated this problem will not happen again. Also, he never received notice of this abatement beforehand. Gerry Strathman stated the costs for the assessment include the crew, equipment, hearings, and notices that are sent out. The city is recovering costs for taking care of the snow. There were complaints from neighbors. Guy Willits showed a video of the property.
