Regular City Council Meeting Monday,June 20, 2011 Page 24 removed within twenty (20) days from that initial notice in May; and subsequent follow-up inspections. Mr. Munson estimated that the abatement, involving demo- lition of the garage and shed, and disposal of all structure debris and structure contents would cost approximately$10,000. Mr. Munson provided a photo update of the property; and applicable City Code sections related to the process for this proposed abatement; and advised that the homeowners had advised that they would not be attending tonight's meeting. Discussion included the condition of the home, deemed to be deteriorating not to this extent and probably only needing cosmetic repairs that may be addressed by staff following this abatement process; appreciation to staff for bringing this for- ward to abate a seriously unsafe situation; and reiteration of the abatement costs initially funded through the City but then if not paid applied to property taxes. Willmus moved, Johnson seconded, adoption of Resolution No.10909 (Attach- ment B) entitled, "Declaring the Garage and Shed Located at 2941 Rice Street Unsafe Structures and Requiring their Repair or Demolition;" thereby directing Community Development staff to abate the unsafe structure violations at 2941 Rice Street by hiring a general contractor to demolish both the dilapidated garage and shed; and to dispose of the structure debris and content at a cost estimated to be $10,000.00; with the owner first given an additional ten (10) days to remove or repair the structures or remove any contents; and the actual abatement and administrative costs to be billed to the property owner; and if not paid, staff di- rected to recover costs as specified in City Code, Section 906.03J.
