Home My WebLink AboutCitation Request 6/1/01 L* (t) OfHKOfr-1 ON THE WATER CITATION REQUEST Name: Terry B Gable Address: 1012 Harney Ave ProblemNiolation of: 16-35A (6), allowing occupancy of a dwelling unit with uncorrected code violations, several ordered corrected in 1993 to a previous owner. Brief History Review: Orders issued December 11, 2000 to new owners of property following a tenant complaint. Review of the files revealed orders had been issued on this property in 1993 to a previous owner. The dwelling remained vacant for a long period and further enforcement of the 1993 order was not done. In December, the occupants called to complaint of a backed up sewer and an inspection v{as made. In revie",ring the file tbe outstanding QrderSwereU9Jed an(t submitted to the new owners included in a new order. To date the owners have not been in contact nor have they made exterior or reported inside repairs. They have continued to rent this dwelling with these uncorrected violations. Several final notices have been issued with dates specified to confirm compliance. No confirmation has been forthcoming. Reinspection May 31, 2001 revealed uncorrected violations and a lack of property maintenance. I am requesting 15 days of renting a dwelling with uncorrected code violations. Division Supervisor: Dir.
