32 0 2660 Cleveland Avenue — (Roseville Properties) violations not corrected, also additional 33 debris dropped on site. 34 0 1947 County Road C — (Roseville Properties) violations not corrected. 35 Staff has had contact with representatives of Roseville Properties. In preparation for the demolition of 36 the their buildings, they have opened up the building for inspections by demolition contractors. They 37 are planning on tearing down the buildings in the next 60 -90 days, and would like to hold off making ss any corrections (i.e. painting over the graffiti). 39 Staff is prepared to send second notices to those property owners who had not completed corrections. 4o However, given the potential of the buildings at 2660 Cleveland Ave. and 1947 County Road C to be 41 torn down in the near future, the City may want to consider holding off sending a second notice at this 42 time. Staff would, however, send the second notice to 2814 Cleveland Ave as it relates to junk and 43 debris on the property. The notice will state that if corrections were not completed in 10 days, the 44 next course of action would be for the City to abate the violations. 45 For a historical perspective, a history of code enforcement actions taken in the Twin Lakes 46 redevelopment area is attached (Attachment A). 47 A status update, including pictures, will be provided at the Council hearing. 48 The City Attorney will be prepared to discuss the Hazardous Building Law and how the City could 49 initiate the procedure if desired. 50 POLICY OBJECTIVE 51 The City goals within the Comprehensive Plan are to protect and improve property values (Goal 3, 4, 52 and 5; page 6 and, Section 3) and to adhere to performance standards which protect the integrity of the 53 housing units and the neighborhood (Policy 6, page 8, Section 3). 54 FINANCIAL IMPACTS 55 Costs for abatements undertaken by the city are collected from the affected property owners: 56 In the short term, costs of abatements on commercial properties are paid out of the Community 57 Development Department budget. 58 Each property owner is then billed for actual and administrative costs. If charges are not paid, staff 59 recovers costs as specified in Section 407.07B. 60 STAFF RECOMMENDATION 61 Staff recommends that the Council direct Community Development staff to continue to work with the 62 property owners to correct the code violations. 63 REQUESTED COUNCIL ACTION 64 65 Will be based on discussion.
