such a condition that the city should label it and unsafe building.... I believe we need to do this now with a notice to vacate, secured and maintain against entry. The potential of the roof top unit coming down is great as is the north wall collapsing. This is what Paul said today after he re -inspected the building (7/25/2016): In the last three weeks, three major new cracks have formed on the north & south walls. The north wall now has five areas where the stucco fell out in the last week.... The door is also open and the tarp covering the half -fallen ac unit has blown and exposed the roof area to the elements. I would like to put an "unsafe building do not enter" placard on the building today as I believe the ac unit or the north wall could fall at any moment.... [A) large picture window in back [is] totally broken out with the plywood removed. Obviously, the City's concern is for public safety. We know that you intend to remove the HVAC soon. In addition to that, it will be necessary to take other steps to make that property safe. You must take action to prevent collapse of the structure. You must also seal all doors, windows or any other means to access that building, including replacing the plywood to cover the large picture window to the rear of the building. Many of these issues can be addressed for a reasonable cost. Within a relatively short period, please demolish that structure. In the meantime, please make the building safe. Please stay in touch with Paul and Mike to keep them apprised of your progress toward removal of the building. Also, seek Paul's approval of your actions to make the building safe and secure. Please act immediately, because failure to make this building safe and secure may cause the City to step in in order to make the necessary repairs or demolition. Thanks Rich. Please feel free to contact me should you have any questions. J ruly Your G Attorney At Law cc: City of Centerville Bill Lentsch ffm
