NO PERMITS HAVE BEEN OBTAINED FOR THE PROPERTY.
SO THIS IS THE DAY OF THE DART ON APRIL 2ND, 2024.
UM, MULTIPLE INDIVIDUALS WERE FOUND, UM, RESIDING IN THE STRUCTURE AT THE TIME.
UM, I BELIEVE THERE WERE SOME ARRESTS AS WELL.
SO THIS IS GONNA BE THE LEFT ELEVATION OF THE STRUCTURE.
AT THE DAY OF THE DART, THERE WAS A LARGE AMOUNT OF TRASH ON THE OUTSIDE.
THIS IS THE REAR ELEVATION OF THE STRUCTURE.
AGAIN, THE PROPERTY HAD A LARGE AMOUNT OF TRASH, UM, ON THE EXTERIOR OF THE PROPERTY, AND THIS IS GONNA BE THAT BACK PORTION OF THE RIGHT ELEVATION WITH, AGAIN, LARGE AMOUNT OF TRASH ON THE EXTERIOR.
SO THIS IS THE UPDATED PHOTOS THAT WERE TAKEN ON AUGUST 29TH.
THIS IS THE FRONT ELEVATION OF THE STRUCTURE.
UH, THE TRANSIT SITING IS BROKEN IN MULTIPLE AREAS OR MISSING.
THE, A HANDICAP RAMP ON THE FRONT AND LEFT PORTION ARE COMPLETELY DETERIORATED.
SO THIS IS THE LEFT ELEVATION OF THE STRUCTURE.
AGAIN, THE TRANSIT SIDING IS BROKEN AND OR MISSING.
THE FOUNDATION SKIRTING IS BROKEN AS WELL.
THAT RAMP IS BEING HELD UP BY CINDER BLOCKS AT THIS TIME, AND THE WOOD IS ROTTED.

THE PORTION OF THE FOUNDATION HAS SUNK INTO THE GROUND, AND THIS IS THE BACK PORTION OF THAT RIGHT ELEVATION.
STRUCTURAL MEMBERS ARE EXPOSED AND ARE ROTTED IN A CLOSER VIEW TO SHOW THE ROTTED STRUCTURAL MEMBERS AND THE FOUNDATION HAS SUNK INTO THE GROUND.
AND THIS IS THE FRONT PORT PORTION OF THAT RIGHT ELEVATION.
[00:15:01]
SIDING IS BROKEN IN SOME AREAS.THE WATER HEATER IS CURRENTLY EXPOSED TO ELEMENTS AND THE FASCIA BOARDS LACK WEATHER PROTECTION.
SO THIS IS ON THE DAY OF THE DART ON APRIL 2ND, WALKING INTO THE STRUCTURE.
UM, THE FRONT AISLE WAY TO GO IN WAS COMPLETELY BLOCKED BY BICYCLE PARTS AND OTHER TRASH.
AND THE WALLS ARE COMPLETELY COVERED IN GRAFFITI.
SO THIS IS TAKEN ON AUGUST 29TH OF THAT SAME AREA.
THE AISLE IS BLOCKED WITH EVEN MORE TRASH.
UM, THE WALLS ARE STILL COMPLETELY COVERED WITH GRAFFITI.
SO THIS IS THE DAY OF THE DART ON AUGUST 2ND.
THIS IS GONNA BE THE ROOM TO THE LEFT WHEN YOU FIRST WALK IN.
IT'S COMPLETELY COVERED WITH TRASH AND ITEMS BLOCKING ANY WINDOWS IN CASE OF EMERGENCY OR PANIC.
AND AGAIN, ON AUGUST 29TH, THE ROOM HAS CLEARED OUT A LITTLE BIT, BUT IT'S STILL BLOCKING ALL OF THE WINDOWS IN CASE OF PANIC OR FIRE.
SO THIS IS THE DAY OF THE DART.
ON APRIL 2ND, UM, THE KITCHEN WAS BEING UTILIZED AS A BEDROOM FOR ONE OF THE INDIVIDUALS STAYING AT THE PROPERTY.
UM, HE WAS IN A WHEELCHAIR SO HE COULDN'T GET ANY FURTHER DUE TO ALL THE TRASH AND DEBRIS, SO HE WOULD LIVE IN THE KITCHEN.
THE KITCHEN REMAINS IN THE SAME CONDITION, LARGE AMOUNT OF TRASH AND DEBRIS BLOCKING THE, UH, DOORWAY OR ANY WINDOWS.
UM, THE FLOOR COVERING WAS TORN, BUT IT WAS HARD TO SEE DUE TO ALL THE TRASH AND DEBRIS AND WALKING THROUGHOUT THE STRUCTURE.
THE FLOOR IS SOFT AS WELL HERE IN THAT BACK CORNER OF THE KITCHEN.
UM, THE PORTIONS OF THE SHEET ROCK HAVE COLLAPSED AND THE INSTALLATION IS EXPOSED AND ALSO WITH WATER DAMAGE.
SO THIS IS THE HALLWAY GOING THROUGH TOWARDS THE BACK OF THE STRUCTURE.
IT IS COMPLETELY COVERED WITH TRASH AND OTHER ITEMS. UM, SO IT IS HARD TO WALK THROUGH WITHOUT TRIPPING OR FALLING.
AND THIS IS THE BATHROOM AREA, THERE IS, UH, MULTIPLE WATER DAMAGED AREAS AS WELL.
AND YOU CANNOT ACCESS THE BATHROOM AGAIN DUE TO ALL THE LARGE AMOUNT OF ITEMS BEING STORED THROUGHOUT.
AND THE CEILING DOES HAVE WATER DAMAGE.
AND THIS PHOTO, AGAIN, WAS TAKEN ON APRIL 2ND, AND THIS PHOTO WAS TAKEN ON AUGUST 29TH AS WELL, SHOWING THAT THE BATHROOM IS REMAINS IN THE SAME CONDITION.
SO THIS IS THE SECOND PORTION OF THE HALLWAY GOING TOWARDS BACK BEDROOMS. A LARGE AMOUNT OF ITEMS STILL, UM, THE WALLS ARE COVERED WITH GRAFFITI, UM, WHERE THE GRAFFITI IS.
THERE'S ALSO WATER DAMAGE, BUT IT'S HARD TO SEE DUE TO ALL THE PAINT.
AND HERE'S A PORTION OF THE CEILING WITH WATER DAMAGE.
AND THERE IS A LIGHT FIXTURE THERE WHERE THE WATER DAMAGE IS, IS OCCURRING.
SO THIS IS ONE OF THE BEDROOMS. THIS WAS TAKEN ON APRIL 2ND SHOWING, UM, ON THE DAY OF THE DART THAT THE WINDOWS WERE NOT ACCESSIBLE AND THERE'S LARGE AMOUNT OF TRASH AND DEBRIS.
AND AGAIN, THERE IS NO FLOOR COVERING THROUGHOUT.
SO ALL OF THESE ITEMS ARE BEING STORED ON TOP OF THE SUBFLOOR.
AND THIS WAS TAKEN ON AUGUST 29TH.
THE BEDROOM REMAINS IN THE SAME CONDITION, STILL FILLED WITH LARGE AMOUNTS OF TRASH AND ITEMS. HERE IS THE ANOTHER BEDROOM TAKEN ON APRIL 2ND DAY OF THE DART, LARGE AMOUNT OF GRAFFITI SHEET ROCK HAS FALLEN FROM THE CEILING.

IN CASE OF FIRE PANIC, THIS WAS THE REAR LAST BEDROOM, AND THIS WAS TAKEN ON APRIL 2ND.
UM, THIS AGAIN, THE SUBFLOOR IS EXPOSED.
THIS ROOM WAS FAIRLY NEAT, BUT YOU COULD HEAR RATS CRAWLING IN THE WALLS.
UM, SO THERE IS, THERE WAS SIGNS OF A RAT INFESTATION ON THE DAY OF THE DART, AND THIS WAS TAKEN ON AUGUST 29TH.
UM, AGAIN, THE SUBFLOOR IS EXPOSED IN LARGE AMOUNT OF TRASH AND DEBRIS EVERYWHERE, AND THE WINDOWS ARE BROKEN OR BOARDED UP.
AND IN CASE OF FIRE OR PANIC, YOU WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO GET OUT.
ON THE DAY OF THE DART, THEY DID FIND A STOLEN MOTORBIKE AND IT WAS CONFISCATED.
THE STRUCTURE LOCATED AT 3 4 6 BELDEN AVENUE IS IN VIOLATION OF CITY CODE ARTICLE EIGHT, CHAPTER 6, 1 56, SUBSECTIONS 1, 2, 8, 11, 12, 15, 17, AND 18, WHICH ANY BUILDING OR STRUCTURE WHICH HAS ANY OR ALL OF THE CONDITIONS OR DEFECTS HEREINAFTER DESCRIBED SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A DANGEROUS BUILDING AND A HAZARD TO PUBLIC HEALTH, SAFETY AND WELFARE.
PROVIDED THAT SUCH CONDITIONS OF DEFECTS OF DILAPIDATION, SUBSTANDARD, OR UNFITNESS FOR HUMAN HABITATION POSE A THREAT OR POTENTIAL THREAT TO LIFE, HEALTH, PROPERTY
[00:20:01]
OR HUMAN SAFETY STAFF RECOMMENDS DEMOLITION.THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION OF 3 4 6 BELDEN AVENUE.
ANY QUESTIONS? NO, I HAVE ANYBODY ELSE QUESTIONS? NO QUESTION.
HAS THE, UM, HANDICAPPED INDIVIDUAL HAD ANY SERVICES PROVIDED? UM, ON THE DAY OF THE DART, HE WAS OFFERED SERVICES, UM, EVER SINCE THAT DAY? UM, I HAVE NOT SEEN HIM AT THE PROPERTY.
UH, I, I, HE DIDN'T TAKE SERVICES THAT DAY, SO I CAN'T TELL YOU WHERE HE WENT, BUT HE'S NO LONGER THERE.
UM, I COMMEND YOU GUYS BECAUSE THIS ONLY TOOK FOUR MONTHS TO GET HERE WHEN I FIRST STARTED.
AND WHAT REMINDS ME HERE IS WE HAD 17 CASES PLUS A DAY, AND WE WENT FOUR WEEKS AT A TIME.
THIS HERE IS PROBABLY ONE OF THE SHORTEST ONES, AND I COMMEND YOU GUYS ON THAT BECAUSE WE'VE SEEN SOME THAT STRETCHED OUT.
I GOT TWO PIECES IN HERE THAT ARE INTERESTING.
YOU GAVE A VACATE ORDER ON THE SAME TIME.
AND APPARENTLY THAT WAS NOT KEPT UP BECAUSE YOU ALSO ISSUED ANOTHER VACATE ORDER AT, UM, 4 29.
SO, SO THE, NO, THE ACTUAL NOTICE TO VACATE WAS GIVEN ON APRIL 29TH, 2024.
UM, SO IF YOU ARE READING THE NOTES, IT PROBABLY IS STATING THAT THE NOTICE OF VACATE IS PENDING.
UM, BUT THE OFFICIAL NOTICE TO VACATE, UM, WAS SIGNED AND THEN POSTED AT THE PROPERTY ON AUGUST 29TH, 2024 DUE TO NO ELECTRICAL SERVICES IN LACK OF MEANS OF EGRESS.
I NOTICED IN HERE THERE'S NOTHING THAT SAYS IT'S ON OR OFF.
SO AT THE DAY OF THE DART, HE DID, THE INDIVIDUAL THAT WAS STAYING THERE DID HAVE WATER IN HIS NAME, BUT IT WAS TURNED OFF DUE TO A MAJOR WATER LEAK.
SO THEY STILL DIDN'T HAVE ACCESS TO WATER EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS AN ACTIVE WATER ACCOUNT.
UM, BUT THERE IS NO LONGER AN ACTIVE WATER ACCOUNT AT THE PROPERTY, THIS HOUSE.
AND I DON'T KNOW IF YOU NOTICE NOT OFF, UH, I NOTICED THE OFFICER'S NOT HERE.
THE SAFE OFFICER IS HERE TO SPEAK.
IS HE HE'S SITTING RIGHT THERE.
DID YOU NOTICE VACANT VACANTS IN THE AREA THAT CONSISTENTLY GO HERE? UM, I CAN'T SPEAK ON BEHALF OF THAT DUE TO THE FACT THAT I AM CITYWIDE.
I'M NOT FAMILIAR WITH THAT AREA, BUT I'M SURE THE OFFICER WOULD BE ABLE TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION FOR YOU.
AND THE SERVICES WERE OFFERED ON THAT DAY TO THE INDIVIDUAL OR TO OTHERS? HOW MANY OF THERE BESIDES THE PERSON THAT WAS IN THE WHEELCHAIR? UM, THERE WAS, I BELIEVE, UM, FIVE INDIVIDUALS AND THEY WERE ALL OFFERED, UM, THEY WERE OFFERED SERVICES BY DEPARTMENT OF HUMAN SERVICES AND BY THE NEIGHBORHOOD HOUSING SERVICES DEPARTMENT.
AND THE INDIVIDUAL RIGHT NOW DOES NOT GO BACK TO THE PROPERTY.
SO CURRENTLY THERE HAS NOT BEEN ANY INDIVIDUALS AT THE PROPERTY.
IT STATES IN HERE THAT THE CITY HAS CLEANED UP HOW MANY TIMES? WE'VE CLEANED IT THREE TIMES.
SO FEBRUARY 9TH, 2024, IT COSTS $370.
ON MAY 7TH, 2024, THE COST WAS $565.
AND ON AUGUST 29TH, 2024, THE COST WAS $434.
I'M OFFICER GIN SOUTH SAFE, UH, SAN ANTONIO POLICE DEPARTMENT.
UM, THIS LOCATION, BRING THE MIC.
THIS, THIS LOCATION HAS BEEN A, A, A CHRONIC PROBLEM FOR US FOR A WHILE.
SO I'VE BEEN ON TOP OF THIS, I'VE TAKEN OUT MULTIPLE STOLEN VEHICLES, STOLEN MOTORCYCLE, UM, MULTIPLE DRUG ARRESTS AND SO FORTH.
UM, ONE OF THE BIGGER PROBLEMS IS, IS I HAVE TO BLOCK OVER.
I HAVE A SCHOOL, GILBERT ELEMENTARY.
SO IT, IT, IT'S, IT'S A, IT'S A CHRONIC PROBLEM.
UM, JUST LAST, THEY SECURED THE, THE LOCATION EARLY AUGUST OR SOME OTHER INDIVIDUALS THAT ARE, ARE TAKING CARE OF THAT PROPERTY OR THAT WARD TAKING CARE OF THE PROPERTY, CLOSED IT.
BUT WE KNEW WITHIN TWO OR THREE DAYS IT'D BE BACK.
AND SURE ENOUGH, BOTH FRONT AND BACK DOORS WERE, WERE KICKED IN.
AND, AND, UM, SPEAKING TO NEIGHBORS, THEY'VE ALL EXPLAINED THAT, UH, AFTER 8, 9 30, AND WHEN THE SUN GOES DOWN, YOU GET 10 TO 12 PEOPLE IN THE BACKYARD INSIDE THE HOUSE CONGREGATING TILL MORNING AND THEY LEAVE KNOWING THAT WE'LL BE BACK
[00:25:01]
PATROLLING.BUT, UM, AGAIN, THAT'S AN ONGOING PROBLEM THAT WE HAVE WITH THIS LOCATION, UH, BETWEEN THE DRUGS, STOLEN VEHICLES AND SO FORTH.
AND THEN, UH, THE, THE INDIVIDUAL THAT WAS CLAIMING TO BE HIS LOCATION WAS, UH, EITHER RENTING AND, AND, AND PUTTING, UM, SINGLE-WIDE, UM, TRAVEL TRAILERS IN THE, IN THE DRIVEWAY AND SO FORTH.
AND, AND, UM, THEY WERE USING THAT AS, AS SOMEWHERE TO, TO STAY.
SO, UH, IT HAS BEEN A PROBLEM.
THE INDIVIDUAL IN THE WHEELCHAIR, HE DID NOT, HE STAYED MAYBE ANOTHER WEEK AND HE WAS GONE.
'CAUSE IN FIGHTING BETWEEN THE PERSON, CHARGING THEM FOR RENT AND SO FORTH, HE SAID THE GUY'S CRAZY.
DID HE LEAVE ALONE? HE LEFT THE LOCATION.
WE NOT, NOT KNOWING HE PICKED HIM UP OR HOW HE LEFT, WE WERE TOLD, SO.
BUT, UM, THAT, THAT'S PRETTY MUCH SUMS IT UP.
ANY QUESTIONS? UM, THIS, SAM, I JUST HAVE ONE QUESTION.
SO HE WAS PAYING RENT TO GALVIN? NO, NO.
THERE WAS AN INDIVIDUAL THERE THAT WAS CLAIMING WHAT DID HE RENT TO THAT HE WAS THE OWNER, WHICH HE'S NOT THE OWNER.
HE WASN'T THE OWNER OF THE LOCATION.
SO NO, HE IS NO BIRTH WRITER OR ANYTHING TO THE INDIVIDUAL OR TO THE LOCATION.
SO COMMENT, DID, UH, THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE.
AND ON THE SCHOOL, WHICH I GUESS YOU'VE BEEN IN HERE BEFORE, BECAUSE THAT'S MY MAJOR KEY, HOW FAR AWAY IS THE BLOCK OVER? IS THIS STREET USED AS A MAJOR THOROUGH WAY FOR YES, SIR.
WALKING KIDS, YOU GO TO THE END OF THE END OF, UH, BUILDING AND IT'S A, IT'S AN ODD SHAPED BLOCK, SO THEY'RE REAL NARROW AND, AND THREE OR FOUR HOUSES, AND THEN ANOTHER BLOCK, THREE OR FOUR HOUSES AND SO FORTH.
WELL, BETWEEN BUILDING, BETWEEN BELDEN AND SOUTH CROSS, RIGHT ACROSS SOUTH CROSS OR, UM, BELDEN AND MISSION, IF YOU CROSS THE STREET, YOU'RE IN THE PLAYGROUND.
RUBY RODRIGUEZ, PLEASE APPROACH A PODIUM.
STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD.
UM, I'M HERE TO ASK FOR MAYBE AN, AN EXTENSION OR POSSIBLY SEE WHAT WE CAN DO.
THE INDIVIDUAL THAT DID RESIDE, RESIDE IN THAT HOME.
HE HAS BEEN LOCKED UP FOR ABOUT, HE'S IN, HE'S BEEN INCARCERATED IN BEXAR COUNTY.
HE HAD A COURT HEARING YESTERDAY, A TRIAL, UM, HEARING, UM, I DON'T KNOW WHEN HE WILL BE RELEASED.
IT WAS HIS GRANDMOTHER'S HOME WHO HAS PASSED AWAY.
HE WAS RAISED IN THAT HOME WITH HIS FATHER WHO IS ALSO INCARCERATED.
I'M VERY FAMILIAR WITH ALL THE TENANTS THAT WERE IN THERE.
UM, I WILL NOT ADMIT OR DENY THAT THERE WAS DRUG INVOLVEMENT IN THERE.
THERE WAS A LOT OF CONGREGATING THAT DID HAPPEN IN THERE AND DID OCCUR IN THERE DUE TO CHRISTIAN HAVING MANY FRIENDS, MANY, MANY FRIENDS.
I GOT TO KNOW CHRISTIAN ABOUT A YEAR AGO, AND JUST TO GIVE Y'ALL A QUICK INTRODUCTION ON, UM, WHO I AM OR WHAT I DO.
SO I'VE BEEN A SOCIAL WORKER WITH NONPROFITS LIKE CATHOLIC CHARITIES, Y-M-C-A-C-H-R PARTNERS, UM, FOR ABOUT 10 TO 15 YEARS NOW.
I'VE ALSO DEALT IN REAL ESTATE.
I WAS A DISTRICT MANAGER OVER A APARTMENT COMPLEXES, WHICH INCLUDED, UM, I, I'LL NAME SOME PECAN VALLEY SPANISH SPUR, WINSTON SQUARE, WESTWOOD PLAZA.
I AM VERY FAMILIAR WITH MAKE READYS, AND I AM ABLE TO TURN AROUND AND MAKE READY, DO A MAKE READY IN A MATTER OF DAYS.
UM, I GOT TO KNOW CHRIS ABOUT A YEAR AGO, AND WHEN I INTRODUCED MYSELF TO CHRIS AND I TOLD HIM WHAT MY MISSION WAS, I HAVE A NONPROFIT, VERY GRASSROOTS BY THE NAME OF SARAH'S HOUSE.
I'VE BEEN WORKING WITH, UM, THE CITY OF SAN ANTONIO, TRYING TO IMPLEMENT A PROGRAM.
UM, I JUST ENTERED AN ENTREPRENEUR PROGRAM THROUGH THE CITY OF SAN ANTONIO CALLED PONDEROSA RISING.
UM, I HAVE A MISSION THAT I REALLY WANNA GET DONE, AND I THINK THAT IT WOULD HELP IN THE CITY IN SO MANY WAYS, UM, THIS HOME.
AND I APOLOGIZE IF I KEEP SAYING, UM, I'M NOT VERY COMFORTABLE WITH PUBLIC SPEAKING YET,
UM, AND SO, UM, WITH THAT BEING SAID, WHEN I MET CHRISTIAN, CHRISTIAN WAS VERY OPEN TO THE IDEAS THAT I HAD OF REHABBING THE HOME AND PLACING HOMELESS INDIVIDUALS IN THERE WHO WANTED A SECOND CHANCE AT LIFE.
GILBERT, THE INDIVIDUAL IN THE WHEELCHAIR WAS LIVING THERE WITH HIS GIRLFRIEND.
THEY NOW LIVE IN A BACK ALLEY BEHIND THE WASH AREA.
UM, THERE WAS A DISPUTE BETWEEN RENT.
UH, I BELIEVE GILBERT FELT SOME SOME WAY ABOUT PAYING RENT WHEN HE DIDN'T HAVE ACCESSIBLE, UM, WAYS TO LEAVE THE HOUSE OR COME IN.
I ASKED THAT THERE WAS AN EXTENSION SO THAT CHRIS CHRISTIAN CAN COME OUT AND DISPUTE THIS AND THAT MAYBE WE CAN TURN THIS HOME AROUND AND HOUSE INDIVIDUALS THAT REALLY NEED IT.
[00:30:01]
I DID HOUSE THERE IS CURRENTLY IN THE HOSPITAL FIGHTING CANCER.HE HAS LUNG CANCER AND HE HAS TUMORS, UM, AND HIS EXTREMITIES.
AND HE NEEDS A HOME TO GO HOME TO.
UM, SO YOU'RE NOT THE OWNER, YOU'RE NOT THE I'M THE REPRESENTATIVE.
HAVE YOU SEEN THE PACKAGE? THAT WAS I DID.
I ACTUALLY HELPED CHRISTIAN RUN OUTTA ROOM TO A COUPLE.
UM, AND THEY WERE PAYING $400 RENT.
WE CLEANED UP THE BACK ROOM AND THE INITIATIVE WAS THAT WE DID START CLEANING THE BACKYARD.
WE STARTED IMPLEMENTING, CLEANING IT AND REHABBING IT LITTLE BY LITTLE.
UM, WE DID HAVE AN ISSUE WITH CHRISTIAN NOT WANTING TO GET RID OF FAMILY, YOU KNOW, HEIRLOOMS LIKE FURNITURE THAT OC THAT OVERLOADED THE HOME THAT, YOU KNOW, IT WAS COMPLETE MESS IN THERE.
UM, WE WERE WORKING ON IT LITTLE BY LITTLE.
IT'S A LOT OF WORK, BUT I BELIEVE IT CAN BE DONE.
AND I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT I CAN KEEP THOSE INDIVIDUALS OUT OF THE HOME AND I CAN, WE CAN OFFER A CHANGE TO INDIVIDUALS THAT WANT A SECOND CHANCE AT LIFE.
AND THAT'S WHAT I'M TRYING TO DO RIGHT NOW.
I'M TRYING TO, I'VE BEEN SPEAKING WITH THE COUNTY COMMISSIONER'S COURT, UM, MR. CHAIR, THIS IS LEGAL.
I, AND I MEAN, NO DISRESPECT, UH, SHE'S ALLOWED THREE MINUTES.
SHE'S GONE OVER THOSE THREE MINUTES.
I'M TRYING TO GIVE HER SOME OPPORTUNITY.
BUT THE ISSUE HERE IS WHETHER THIS STRUCTURE IS CONSIDERED, UM, A DANGEROUS PREMISE.
AND IF SO, HOW IS THAT PROPERTY GOING TO BE ADDRESSED? I'D LIKE TO SEE IF WE CAN GET US FOCUS BACK ONTO, UH, THE ACTUAL PROPERTY.
UM, I'D SAY WE HAVE TO MAKE A DECISION, MA'AM, TODAY.
UM, YOUR TASK IS NOBLE, BUT IT'S, THIS PROPERTY HAS TO, WE HAVE TO DEAL WITH THIS PROPERTY TODAY.
I, I CAN GIVE A TURNAROUND IN TWO WEEKS IF GIVEN THE AVAIL AVAILABILITY TO DO SO.
I CAN TURN IT AROUND IN TWO WEEKS.
WE HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO WORK ON IT BECAUSE WE WENT OUT THERE, UM, ABOUT FOUR WEEKS AGO AND THE POLICE WERE CALLED OUT AND WE WERE ABOUT TO CLEAR THE HOME.
UM, THE RENTERS WHO HAD LIVED THERE BEFORE HAD THE LEASE AGREEMENT.
THE POLICE OFFICER CAME, TOOK AWAY THE NOTICES.
SO WE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WOULD, WHAT NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED, TOOK THE LEASE.
AND SO I HAVE NOTHING TODAY TO PRESENT TO YOU EXCEPT A PROMISE THAT I CAN TURN THIS HOME AROUND AND PROVIDE ADEQUATE HOUSING FOR INDIVIDUALS THAT REALLY NEED IT.
WELL, THAT'S WHAT WE HAVE TO DEAL WITH WHAT YOU BROUGHT IN TODAY.
IF YOU HAVE NOTHING, WE HAVE TO REBUTTAL WITH WHAT WE HAVE TO DO TODAY.
CAN SO DO YOU, I MEAN, JUST FOR, DO YOU HAVE RESOURCES? DO YOU I DO.
I'M A COMMUNITY HEALTH WORKER AND I DO HAVE RESOURCES.
WHAT I DO HAVE IS A GROUP OF INDIVIDUALS THAT ARE CURRENTLY HOMELESS THAT HAVE SKILLED TRADE, AND THAT'S PART OF MY PROGRAM.
AND THEY'RE, THEY'RE READY TO CLEAR THIS HOUSE OUT AND CLEAN IT UP AND DO REHAB IF GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY.
AND IF NOT, ALL I ASK IS THAT YOU GIVE AN EXTENSION SO THAT CHRISTIAN OR I, IF CHRISTIAN IS NOT RELEASED, THAT I CAN DO THE PAPERWORK, UM, THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE TO TRANSFER OVER TO MY PROGRAM.
THIS IS A HOME THAT WOULD BE VA A VALUABLE ASSET TO OUR COMMUNITY MEMBERS AND WOULD HELP WITH THE HOMELESS POPULATION.
LEGAL HAS A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS, NOT IN THE CONDITION THAT IT'S IN.
THAT'S WHY WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING TODAY.
YOU MAY BE ABLE TO DO SOMETHING WHERE AFTER OUR MOTION AND I, AFTER OUR ORDER, WHICH WOULD BE GOOD AS YOU SAY.
UH, LEGAL, DID YOU HAVE A QUESTION? A QUICK FOLLOW UP, MA'AM, BY ANY CHANCE, DO YOU KNOW, UH, UH, YOU SAID CHRISTIAN'S FATHER IS ALSO INCARCERATED? YES, SIR.
AND, AND HIS GRAND, UH, HIS GRANDMOTHER THAT PASSED AWAY? UM, THAT, THAT WAS C I'M SORRY, I JUST WANNA MAKE SURE.
CHRISTIAN'S FATHER IS THE GRANDMOTHER'S SON.
MARY LOU ALVO IS THE GRANDMOTHER TO CHRISTIAN.
UM, CHRISTIAN'S FATHER IS HER SON.
AND HOW MANY OTHER CHILDREN WERE THERE, DO YOU RECALL? UM, THAT, THAT I KNOW OF.
IT WAS JUST, I, I DON'T KNOW TOO MUCH ABOUT THE FAMILY, BUT NOBODY HAS REPRESENTED THEMSELVES.
UM, SO I JUST KNOW CHRISTIAN AND THE FATHER AND OKAY.
CHRISTIAN'S FATHER IS CURRENTLY INCARCERATED AND HAS BEEN INCARCERATED.
SO AT NO POINT IN TIME DO YOU KNOW IF THERE'S ANY OTHER PERSONS THAT HAVE, UM, LEGAL RIGHT TO THIS PROPERTY? SUPERIOR TO CHRISTIAN? NO, NOT THAT I KNOW OF.
NOTICES HAVE AND NOR DO YOU, NOR DO YOU KNOW IF, IF CHRISTIAN'S FATHER HAS SUPERIOR RIGHT TO THE PROPERTY? CHRISTIAN AS WELL AS HIS FATHER HAVE SUPERIOR.
FOR UM, BECAUSE OF THE AIRSHIP.
MA'AM, ARE YOU AWARE OF THIS? DO YOU KNOW THIS AND DO YOU HAVE DOCUMENTATION OF THIS OR IS THIS MORE OF A ASSUMPTION? THIS IS DOCUMENTATION THAT CHRISTIAN HAS SHOWED ME, UM, HIS BIRTH CERTIFICATE.
AND I BELIEVE I CAN PRODUCE THOSE RECORDS IF GIVEN THE TIME TO DO SO.
SO WHAT YOU'RE TELLING ME IS HE HAS A BIRTH CERTIFICATE? YES, SIR.
[00:35:01]
YOU KNOW, HOW DO YOU REALIZE HOW MUCH IT'S GONNA COST TO REHAB THIS HOUSE? THIS HOUSE IS NOT GONNA BE A QUICK, UH, FEW BOARDS AND, AND NAILS.AND I BELIEVE THAT IT IS POSSIBLE TO DO A TURNAROUND ON THIS HOME AND WITH THE RESOURCES IN THE COMMUNITY.
HAVE YOU HAD AN ENGINEER? NO, NOT YET.
BUT I CAN DO SO IF GIVEN PERMISSION TO MOVE FORWARD WITH IT.
AND THIS WOULD BE A BREAKING POINT AND IT'D BE, IT, IT WOULD ENABLE A TAKEOFF FOR OUR PROGRAM AND TO, IN DOING THIS PROGRAM, WE WOULD BE BUILDING ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AS WELL AS HELPING WITH THE HOMELESS POPULATION.
DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS, HOW, UH, WHAT THE ZONE OF THE HOUSE IS? CAN YOU REPEAT THAT? THE, THE ZONING OF THE HOUSE, DO YOU KNOW WHAT IT IS? IT'S A SINGLE FAMILY, MULTI-FAMILY.
YOU JUST SAID THAT YOU HELPED AN INDIVIDUAL RENT OUT A SINGLE FAMILY HOME TO SEVERAL PEOPLE.
AND HE WAS RENTING ROOMS. UH, SAME SEVERAL PEOPLE WITH THAT.
WHERE IN THE, YOU SAID YOU WORKED REAL ESTATE? I'VE, I'VE DONE, I HAVE A BACKGROUND IN REAL ESTATE.
SO WHERE IN THERE DOES IT SAY THAT A SINGLE FAMILY HOME CAN BE LEASED OUT TO MULTIPLE PEOPLE IF IT'S NOT ZONED FOR THAT? WELL, TO BE QUITE HONEST WITH YOU, I DON'T KNOW EVERYTHING THAT IT TELLS IN THE ZONING, BUT I DO KNOW THAT THERE ARE OTHER HOMES THAT ARE RENTING OUT ROOMS AND THAT'S WHAT'S BEING DONE IN SAN ANTONIO RIGHT NOW TO CREATE AFFORDABLE HOUSING, WHICH I BELIEVE CAN BE DONE WITH THIS HOME.
YOU'RE SAYING BECAUSE EVERYBODY ELSE IS DOING IT, IT'S OKAY FOR YOU TO DO IT.
IF GRANTED THE PERMISSION AND I GO THROUGH THE LEGALITY, THERE'S NO GRANTED PERMISSION.
YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO RENT OUT SINGLE HOME HOUSES OR ROOMS TO INDIVIDUALS WHEN THE CITY OR THE STATE HAVE NOT AUTHORIZED IT.
SO MAYBE IF YOU GIVE US AN EXTENSION OR THAT'S NOT TO US, OR ALLOW US OPPORTUNITY AND WE CAN DO THE RESEARCH AND PROVIDE EVERYTHING NEEDED.
I'M JUST SAYING ALSO, WHEN YOU SAY AIRSHIP, AIRSHIP DOES NOT GRANT A HOME TO ANYBODY.
IT HAS TO BE DONE IN A WILL AND IT HAS TO BE PASSED BY THAT.
AND IF IT HASN'T BEEN DONE BY THAT, THEN IN REALITY, HE DOESN'T HAVE A SAY SO.
'CAUSE HIS FATHER IS THE HEIR TO THE HOUSE FIRST.
AND THAT HAS COME ABOUT AND THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WORKING WITH CHRISTIAN AND GETTING AHOLD OF HIS FATHER THAT WE WILL BE ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH.
WELL, UNTIL THEN, WE DON'T HAVE THAT IN FRONT OF US AND WE ARE DEALING WITH WHAT WE HAVE IN FRONT OF US, WHICH IS NOBODY STANDING FOR THE PROPERTY, BUT YOU THAT HAS NO MERIT OR STANDING OTHER THAN A FRIEND OR SOMEBODY WHO WANTS TO REHAB THE HOUSE VIA SHORTCUTS, IS WHAT IT SOUNDS LIKE TO ME.
SO CAN I ASK, UM, WHAT IS THE NEXT STEP IN THIS MEAN? YOU ALREADY GET THERE, MA THIS IS LEGAL.
IT WOULD BE IMPROPER FOR YOU TO ASK ANY QUESTIONS IN REGARDS TO THAT.
IF YOU WANT TO FIND INFORMATION AND YOU, UM, CAN PROVIDE, UH, PROOF THAT YOU ARE REQUIRED, YOU ARE ALLOWED TO RECEIVE THAT INFORMATION, THEN THAT INFORMATION WILL BE PROVIDED BY THE CODE OFFICER.
BUT WE'RE NOT GONNA DO IT JUST BECAUSE YOU, YOU SAY YOU REPRESENT CHRISTIAN.
OKAY? I DO WANNA MAKE SURE WE'RE CLEAR.
I, I MEAN NO DISRESPECT, BUT I JUST WANT, I JUST WANNA MAKE SURE WE'RE CLEAR ON THAT.
DO WE HAVE ANY, UH, PUBLIC COMMENTS FOR THIS PROPERTY OR ANYONE ELSE? WE DO NOT.
HAVE ANYONE ELSE SIGNED UP TO SPEAK? NO FURTHER QUESTIONS FROM THE WARD.

AND I WANTED TO CLARIFY, WAS 15 ADDED INTO THE RECORD CODE COMPLIANCE? WHICH ONE IS RIGHT? HMM.
SO THIS UP HERE WAS A CLERICAL? YES.
EVERYBODY UNDERSTAND? SO YOUR MOTION WILL BE ADDED WITH 15.
AND NOW DO I HAVE A SECOND? AYE.
UH, DORIS SOLIS, UH, SECONDS A MOTION? MAY I HAVE A, UH, ROLL CALL? VOTE PLEASE, MR. CHAIR BEFORE THE SECOND, I'D LIKE A FRIENDLY AMENDMENT.
I DON'T REMEMBER HIM SAYING VACATE.
AND THE OFFICERS ASKED FOR A VACATE TO MAINTAIN IT TO BE VACATED.
IS THAT AMENDMENT, UH, WHAT WAS THE AMENDMENT? THE AMENDMENT IS THAT I DIDN'T HEAR YOU SAY VACATE.
AND THE CODE OFFICER DID ASK FOR A VACATE.
UH, YEAH, I AGREE TO THE AMENDMENT SECOND BY THE SECOND.
DID YOU I SECOND DORIS SOLI THE VACATE IS, IS ACCEPTED IN A SECOND, IS BY, UH, MS. SOLIS.

THIS CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION FOR 2214 EL PASO.
ANY QUESTIONS? ROBERT BINKIE, I GOT A QUESTION FOR YOU.
UH, AND EXCUSE MY IGNORANCE ON THE SUBJECT.
WAS THE OWNER PRESENT AT THE FIRST MEETING? DO WE HAVE THAT INFORMATION? YES.
THE, UM, MR. EUGENE, HER HERNANDEZ WAS PRESENT DURING THE FIRST HEARING.
AND THEN OBVIOUSLY HE'S NOT HERE TODAY.
SINCE THE FIRST HEARING, HAVE YOU HAD CONTACT WITH THE OWNER? YES, I HAVE.
AND ALL THAT TIME, HE HAS NOT MADE ANY INDICATION THAT HE WAS GOING TO, AFTER WE GAVE HIM THE 60 DAY, SO THERE WAS AN ATTEMPT.
UM, HE DID CLEAN THE EXTERIOR.
UM, NOT UP TO CODE, BUT HE DID MAKE AN ATTEMPT TO CLEAN.
UM, HE STATED HE MADE AN ATTEMPT TO SECURE THE STRUCTURE.
UM, I WENT BY AND AGAIN, THE STRUCTURE WASN'T SECURED TO CITY CODE.
UM, AND THAT, THAT'S THE ONLY ATTEMPT THAT THAT HE'S MADE.
UM, HE STILL COMMUNICATED WITH ME VIA PHONE CALL AND TEXTS, UM, JUST PROVIDING UPDATES AS FAR AS HE MIGHT HAVE, UH, A BUYER, A PURCHASER.
BUT THAT'S NOT WHAT THIS IS FOR.
BUT HE DIDN'T MAKE THE ATTEMPT AT ANY TIME ON THE REPAIR.
HE WAS MORE CONCERNED ABOUT CLEANING THE YES.
PROPERTY, NOT MAKING THE REPAIR.
DID YOU EMPHASIZE THAT THE REPAIR IS PART OF THAT? YES, SIR.
UH, EVEN AFTER WE HAVE A HEARING, WE, I MET WITH HIM OUTSIDE AND WE EXPLAINED, OR I EXPLAINED EVERY, UH, THE PROCESS AND HOW TO MOVE FORWARD WITH THE REPAIR ORDER.
SO NOW HE'S ASSUMING SOMEBODY'S GONNA BUY IT SO HE DOESN'T HAVE TO DO THE REPAIR, IS WHAT HE'S KIND OF RELAYING.
THAT, UM, THAT'S WHAT WAS MENTIONED IN THE LAST HEARING,
[00:55:01]
THAT HIS INTENT WAS TO, TO SELL, TO SELL THE PROPERTY.SO HE BOUGHT HIMSELF SOME TIME TO SEE IF HE CAN GET A BUYER.
ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS? NO, SIR.
UM, I'M CURIOUS, THE OFFICER, UH, DIDN'T LEAVE ANY KIND OF REPORTS WITH YOU TO READ FOR THE RECORD? NO, UNFORTUNATELY HE DID NOT.
HE ACTUALLY GOT CALLED AWAY UNEXPECTEDLY.
SO I DON'T HAVE ANY OF THAT INFORMATION FOR YOU.
I MIGHT HAVE ONE MORE QUESTION.
UH, THERE WAS A PICTURE OF A PORT-A-POTTY IN THE BACKYARD.
IS THAT BEING SERVICED AT ALL? I, AGAIN, AS A GENERAL CONTRACTOR, WE HAVE PORTA BODIES AT ALL MY JOBS AND THEY COME OUT MONTHLY AND WEEKLY.
IT'S NOT, LEMME ASK, IT'S LIKE, HOW DID YOU GET THIS, I GOT A FOLLOW UP HERE ON THE ASSUMPTION, BASED OFF OF THE FACT OF WHAT THE OFFICER TESTIFIED BEFORE OF THE DRUG USE AND ALL THAT, IT'S CLEARLY STILL GOING ON BECAUSE YOU FOUND ADDITIONAL DRUG PARAPHERNALIA, NEEDLES AND STUFF LIKE THAT AFTER THE FACT.
UH, WITHIN THAT STRUCTURE, THERE'S, THERE'S MULTIPLE INDIVIDUALS.
THEY'RE, THEY'RE REALLY NEVER THE SAME, UH, INDIVIDUALS THAT, THAT OCCU OR THAT TRY TO OCCUPY THAT STRUCTURE.
AND SO DO WE NEED TO VACATE AND CUT UTILITIES? WE ISSUED A NOTICE TO VACATE, BUT YES, IF WE COULD, UM, PUT THAT IN THE ORDER AS WELL TO VACATE.
AND THE UTILITIES WERE ALREADY CUT 'CAUSE THE METER WAS SHOWN.
THE UTILITY AND THE, THE UTILITIES REMAINED DISCONNECTED.
NOW THE PICTURES OF THE SIDE DOOR, I'M ASSUMING THAT WAS A LEFT ELEVATION.
WHY WERE THEY NOT SECURE? THEY WERE ALSO SECURED.
I JUST, UH, DID NOT GET AN OPPORTUNITY TO SHOW THE, PUT THE PHOTO OF THE SECURE.
SO WHAT DID THEY DO AT THE PLYWOOD? THE INDIVIDUALS? I'M, I'M NOT SURE.
I'M NOT, I MEAN, BECAUSE THEY, THEY NORMALLY, LIKE, LIKE ON THE FRONT WHERE THEY LABEL, EACH PIECE THEY PUT ON, THEY PUT A 1, 2, 3, WHATEVER IT WAS.
BUT THOSE TWO DOORS DIDN'T EVEN HAVE IT ON THE GROUND LIKE SOME OF 'EM.
SO, SO THAT PHOTO WAS FROM, FROM, UH, PRIOR TO SECUREMENT.
BUT IF YOU WENT THERE TO, AS THE LAST ONE WAS THE 22ND CORRECT.
WHEN YOU TOOK UPDATE PHOTOS THERE, IT'S SECURED ENTIRE, SO THEY'RE SECURED AS OF THE ENTIRE YES.
THAT PHOTO WAS RIGHT NOW? YES.
THAT PHOTO WAS TO SHOW HOW IT IS UNSECURED EVERY TIME THERE IS AN INSPECTION.
AND THEN I PROVIDED A, UH, ADDITIONAL PHOTOS TO SHOW THAT WE DID IN FACT SECURE THE ENTIRE STRUCTURE.
AND FOR THE RECORD, WE HAVE NO OWNER AND NO, UH, PUBLIC COMMENT.
LEGAL HAS A, JUST A FEW QUESTIONS THEY WANTED TO CLEAR UP.
IS IT YOUR UNDERSTANDING THAT MR. HERNANDEZ WAS THE OWNER OF THE PROPERTY? YES.
AT ANY POINT IN TIME DID MR. HERNANDEZ STATE THAT HE WAS NOT THE OWNER OF THE PROPERTY? DURING OUR LAST INSPECTION, HE DID MENTION HE DID STATE THAT HE, UH, WAS NOT THE PROPERTY OWNER.
UH, SO JUST TO MAKE SURE WE'RE CLEAR AND ON THE RECORD, ARE YOU SAYING OC UM, AUGUST 6TH, 2024.
DID MR. HERNANDEZ STATE TO YOU THAT HE WAS NOT THE OWNER AND HE DID NOT WISH TO SIGN A NO TRESPASS AFFIDAVIT? YES, THAT'S CORRECT.
UM, DID HE ALSO STATE, UM, HE WAS NOT GONNA PAY ANY BILLS? 'CAUSE ALSO HE WAS NOT GONNA PAY ANY BILLS FOR ANY CLEANUP THAT THE CITY DID BECAUSE HE WAS NOT THE OWNER OF THE PROPERTY.
LEGAL HAS NO FURTHER QUESTIONS.
WOULD THAT NOT MEAN THAT HE DID NOT TELL US THE TRUTH WHEN HE WAS HERE THE FIRST TIME? I, I, I DON'T KNOW THE TRUTH.
IT SOUNDS LIKE, UM, MR. HERNANDEZ WAS, WAS SAYING DIFFERENT THINGS AT DIFFERENT TIMES.
I, I, I DON'T WANT TO ACCUSE HIM ANYTHING OTHER THAN BEING INCONSISTENT WITH HIS STATEMENTS.
SO THEN THAT THIS IS NOT, SO MY COMMENT WOULD BE THAT HIM SAYING HE'S TRYING TO SELL THE PROPERTY THAT HE DOESN'T OWN IS A PROBLEM FOR HIM.
IT IS SOMETHING THAT THIS, THAT THIS BOARD SHOULD TAKE INTO CONSIDERATION IN TRYING TO MAKE A DETERMINATION AS TO WHAT TO DO WITH THE PROPERTY.
IF THIS, IF THIS BOARD DETERMINES THAT IT IS A DANGEROUS STRUCTURE.
COUNSEL, IF THERE'S NO FURTHER QUESTIONS, UM, DO I HAVE A MOTION FIRST? EXCUSE ME.
CHAIR, WE DO HAVE SOMEONE SIGNED UP TO SPEAK.
STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD.
I'M THE GENERAL MANAGER OF THE PERZA COMMUNITY LAND TRUST.
NAME AND ADDRESS BEFORE YOU GO INTO, OH.
UM, I, UM, AM PART OF THE COMMUNITY LAND TRUST.
MY OFFICE ADDRESS IS 9 2 2 SAN PEDRO AVENUE IN SAN ANTONIO,
[01:00:01]
TEXAS.I WAS JUST NOTIFIED OF THIS CASE, UH, LAST NIGHT.
UM, SOME OF THIS INFORMATION OBVIOUSLY IS NEW.
I WAS ASKED ON BEHALF OF, UH, MR. HERNANDEZ TO COME AND ASK FOR AN EXTENSION.
UM, I ALSO WAS CONTACTED BY HISTORIC WEST SIDE RESIDENCE ASSOCIATION, WHO JUST HEARD ABOUT THIS CASE LAST YEAR.
UM, SO, UH, OFFICIALLY I'M HERE JUST TO ASK FOR AN EXTENSION, GIVEN THE COMMENTS EARLIER THIS MORNING.
UH, THE COMMUNITY LAND TRUST DOES NOT HAVE ANY INFORMATION ON REPAIR COSTS ON HOW LONG IT WOULD TAKE TO, UH, MAKE REPAIRS.
MR. HERNANDEZ, AND THIS IS THE FIRST I HEAR THAT HE'S NOT THE PROPERTY OWNER.
UH, ASK THIS, UH, IF THE COMMUNITY LAND TRUST WOULD ACTUALLY PURCHASE THE PROPERTY.
OBVIOUSLY, IF HE'S NOT THE LANDOWNER, THAT PRESENTS A PROBLEM FOR US.
BUT I'M FULFILLING, UM, MY OBLIGATION AS I WAS ASKED BY MY BOARD TO COME AND ASK FOR AN EXTENSION.
LET ME ASK YOU SOMETHING, SIR.
SINCE YES, WITHOUT ALL THAT IN THERE, DID YOU ASK THE INDIVIDUAL WHY HE'S TELLING YOU NOW AND NOT WHEN THIS WAS GIVEN 60? WE ALREADY GAVE AN EXTENSION 60 DAYS AGO.
DID HE NOT? DID DID YOU ASK HIM WHY HE'S COMING THIS LATE IN THE BALL GAME? NOT, I HAD NO CONTACT.
LIKE I SAID, I JUST GOT THE CALL LAST NIGHT.
UM, THE REPRESENT THE CHAIR OF THE HISTORIC WESTSIDE RESIDENCE ASSOCIATION WAS ONLY CONTACTED, UH, ABOUT THIS CASE A WEEK AGO.
UM, SO I CAN'T, I I DON'T, I CAN'T ANSWER THAT QUESTION BECAUSE I HAD NO CONTACT WITH THE INDIVIDUAL.
SO YOU, YOU DON'T KNOW WHO CONTACTED THEM TO CONTACT YOU? YES, I DO KNOW WHO CONTACTED.
HE WAS CON HE CONTACTED LETICIA SANCHEZ, WHO'S THE CHAIR OF HISTORIC, UH, WESTSIDE RESIDENT ASSOCIATION, WHO THEN CONTACTED MY BOARD, UH, CHAIR WHO CONTACTED ME.
AND WAS THIS HOUSE JUST A REMINDER, SORRY.
UH, LOOKING OVER THE NOTES, WAS THIS HOUSE DEEMED HISTORIC THEN, OR NO? NO, NO, NO.
UM, SOMETIMES THERE CAN BE, UM, YOU MIND, I'M, I'M SORRY IF WE CAN HOLD ON.
I, I'D LIKE TO MAKE SURE SHE HAS A MICROPHONE SO WE CAN GET HER MICROPHONE AT TIMES.
THERE CAN BE A CONSERVATION DISTRICT STILL NOT ON IN.
YOU'RE PROBABLY NOT COACHING THEM TO HOLD.
I'M NOT CLOSE AT TIMES THERE CAN BE, UH, A GROUP, UH, HAVING A, A NEIGHBORHOOD CONSIDERATE, CONSIDERED FOR CONSERVATION, NOT HISTORIC DESIGNATION, BUT CONSERVATION.
UH, I THINK POSSIBLY THIS GENTLEMAN COULD ANSWER THAT QUESTION.
UH, OR THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION SHOULD KNOW THAT, BUT THAT SHOULD BE IN THE RECORD WHEN HE REQUESTED, UH, OF THE UH, THE FIRST, UH, UM, TIME TO, TO BE REVIEWED AGAIN.
BUT APPARENTLY THERE'S NO INFORMATION ABOUT THAT, BUT THAT, THAT'S JUST A POSSIBILITY.
WELL, MY UNDERSTANDING IS WHOEVER AND I NOT TO BE, I DON'T KNOW WHO CONTACTED YOU, SAY HE CONTACTED AN ORGANIZATION THAT CONTACTED YOU, BUT THAT WASN'T IN THE FIRST ONE.
SO IT WOULDN'T BE IN OUR RECORDS.
SO WE THAT'S WHAT, THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING.
AND HE GOT CALLED LAST NIGHT ON SOMETHING THAT HE'S NOT UP TO.
WHY HE DIDN'T, AND THAT'S WHY I'M SAYING THIS WAS 60 DAYS AGO SURE.
THAT WE GRANTED THIS, AND YET HE NOW AT THE LAST MINUTE WANTS AN INDIVIDUAL TO MAKE A PLEA FOR ANOTHER EXTENSION TO GET ALL THIS TOGETHER WHEN THIS GUY HAD 60 DAYS FROM THAT POINT TO THIS POINT.
SO THAT, THAT'S WHAT I'M TRYING TO PIECE HERE.
I'M JUST SAYING THAT, THAT IT'S A POSSIBILITY, BUT, UM, I WOULD IMAGINE THAT I, I THINK THAT PROBABLY THE OFFICE OF HISTORIC PRESERVATION, IF THEY SAID NO HISTORIC POTENTIAL, THEN THERE'S PROBABLY NOTHING GOING ON, BUT I'M JUST SAYING THAT THERE'S A POSSIBILITY THAT THEY COULD BE UNOFFICIALLY WORKING ON SOMETHING LIKE THAT AND THAT'S WHY THEY ASK FOR IT.

UH, AND YOU CAN ALSO JUST SEE THE CONTINUATION OF THE, THE SMOKE DAMAGE AND THE CHARD OF WOOD MEMBERS.
THIS IS JUST A VIEW RIGHT UNDER THAT LARGE HOLE, UH, WHERE THE ELEMENTS ARE ABLE TO ENTER INTO THE STRUCTURE HERE IS LOOKING TO THE RIGHT, YOU CAN SEE THAT THE WALL IS MISSING.
AND IN THE PREVIOUS PHOTO I WANTED TO MENTION THAT THE ROOF TRUSSES WERE CHARRED, UH, AND CONTAIN SMOKE DAMAGE.

ANY QUESTIONS OF THE COURT? OFFICER? FRED, THANK YOU.
UM, WHEN YOU TALK TO, I GUESS NOT THE OWNER, BUT THE SON.
WHAT DOES THE CONVERSATION THAT YOU GOT FROM THE INDIVIDUAL BEFORE HE COMES UP AND TESTIFY? SURE.
THE CONVERSATION WAS, UH, HE INTENDS ON REPAIRING IT.
UM, HE WAS SORRY FOR THE LOSS OF WHAT, YOU KNOW, HOW IT TRASH ACCUMULATED ALL THE, THE, UH, THE CONDITION OF THE PROPERTY, BUT HIS INTENTIONS ARE TO REPAIR IT.
UH, HE JUST WANTS TO TRY TO GET IN AND CLEAN IT AS QUICK AS POSSIBLE AND DIDN'T MAKE THE REPAIRS.
THAT WAS THE CONVERSATION THAT WE HAD.
YOU PROVIDED THE FACT OF WHAT HE NEEDS HERE AS FAR AS THE, UH, COST.
I EXPLAINED TO HIM ON THE PRE, UH, PRE-BOARD CONFERENCE, HEARING EXACTLY WHAT HE NEEDS, THE BIG THREE.
UH, I EXPLAINED TO HIM EVERYTHING THAT HE NEEDS.
UM, ACCORDING TO HIM, HE WANTED TO WAIT TO SEE WHAT THE DECISION WAS FROM THE BOARD, UH, TO, TO, TO MOVE FORWARD.
I DID EXPLAIN THAT WE, IT'S KIND OF BEST TO BRING THOSE ITEMS, BUT IF, YOU KNOW, BUT HE, I, YOU KNOW, I CAN'T MAKE HIM BRING THOSE ITEMS. SO HE WANTS TO SPEAK TO YOU GUYS FIRST, BUT THE THE WILLINGNESS IS THERE TO, TO REPAIR.
THE WILLINGNESS THAT HE PUT OUT SIR TO, HE WANTED TO REPAIR.
UM, THE AREA THIS IS IN, IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S PRETTY, SOME OF THE LOTS LOOK ALMOST LIKE THEY'RE IN A, A, A TRIANGLE.
UM, IT'S SORT OF YOU, ONCE YOU DRIVE IN AND YOU EXIT IN THE CUL-DE-SAC, IT'S THE HOUSE THAT KIND OF EXITS THE CUL-DE-SAC ON THE LEFT SIDE.
SO WHEN THE FIRE HAPPENED, DID IT AFFECT ANY OF THE HOMES AROUND? NOT AT ALL.
IT JUST, IT JUST WAS CONTAINED, IT SEEMED LIKE IT WAS JUST CONTAINED FROM MY INTERIOR INSPECTION, JUST THE BEDROOM AREA.
AND I MA HIM AND, AND YES, BECAUSE IT LOOKS LIKE WHAT SOME OF THOSE HOLES WERE PUNCHED BY THE FIRE DEPARTMENT TO GET TO THE FIRE.
UH, AND THE INSULATION DIDN'T LOOK LIKE IT BURNED, SO THAT WAS GOOD.
NO, IT, MOST OF THE INSULATION WAS ON THE, ON THE, WHEN THIS CAME TO YOUR ATTENTION? YES.
WAS IT FROM THE NEIGHBORS OR, I WAS ASSIGNED TO THIS CASE IN OCTOBER OF 2023.
UM, I DID SPEAK TO SEVERAL OF THE NEIGHBORS.
THEY, THEY, THEY HAVE BEEN MAINTAINING THE PROPERTY.
THEY'RE, THEY, THEY JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THE PROPERTY GETS REPAIRED.
THAT, THAT WAS THEIR INTENTION.
UM, THEY WANTED TO JUST BE REPAIRED.
WAS ANYBODY LIVING IN THAT? ALL THE TRASH IN THE KITCHEN AND THE LIVING AREA, WHICH DIDN'T HAVE SMOKE DAMAGE? I WAS JUST FULL OF STUFF FROM MY INSPECTION STARTING BACK IN OCTOBER.
UM, I DID DO, UH, CONDU, I DID, UH, GET A WORK ORDER TO HAVE IT SECURED AND TO CUT AND CLEAN ON ONE OCCASION.
IT WAS JUST A CUT AND CLEAN AND SECURE THE GARAGE DOOR, BUT NO ONE WAS PRESENT.
NO HOMELESS ACTIVITY AND NOTHING DURING, THROUGHOUT ALL OF MY INVESTIGATIONS.
ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS FOR THE CODE OFFICER? THANK YOU.
SCOTT MATTHEW, PLEASE APPROACH THE PODIUM.
STATE YOUR NAME AND ADDRESS FOR THE RECORD.
[01:20:07]
UM, BEND THIS UP.AND, AND YOU ASKED FOR, WHAT ELSE DID YOU, YOUR ADDRESS? OH, UH, MY ADDRESS IS, I'M SORRY, I KNOW IT'S
AND YOUR TESTIMONY, SIR? UM, THE FIRE HAPPENED AND I'M JUST ASKING THE BOARD FOR, FOR SOME TIME TO, SORRY, I'M ASKING THE BOARD FOR THIS SOME TIME SO I CAN GET IT REBUILT.
UM, MY, MY INTENTIONAL GOAL IS MY, MY DAD'S NOT WITH US ANYMORE.
SO I'M THE, AS, UM, I'M THE ESTATE OF THE ATTORNEY OR THE ATTORNEYS, HOWEVER THAT GOES.
UM, AND MY, MY INTENTIONS ARE TO CLEAN IT OUT.
I'M TRYING TO GET A, UM, I'VE BEEN TALKING TO SOME PEOPLE TO GET A CREW IN THERE TO GO AHEAD AND CLEAN IT OUT.
UM, A LOT OF IT IS SMOKE DAMAGE.
UM, I BELIEVE THAT THE HOUSE IS, UM, HOLLOWED OUT AND WE TEAR, TEAR DOWN THE SHEET ROCK AND EVERYTHING.
WE CAN DO A, A BETTER, UH, EVALUATION OF, OF WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE.
UM, I DON'T HAVE A PRICE ON THAT.
'CAUSE LIKE, LIKE THE OFFICER SAID, I WAS WAITING TO SEE, YOU KNOW, THE, THE OUTCOME OF THIS TO GET TO REALLY GET GOING.
UM, I WOULD LIKE TO REBUILD IT.
I'VE, I'VE LIVED THERE MY WHOLE LIFE.
UM, MY DAD, HE JUST LET THINGS GO AND, UM, I HAD TO MOVE HIM TO MY HOUSE AND, AND IT WAS JUST, IT'S A NIGHTMARE.
AND, UM, I'M THE ONLY ONE DOWN HERE.
MY, MY SISTER LIVES IN, IN DALLAS, AND MY, AND THE REST OF MY FAMILY, UM, ARE NO LONGER WITH US.
SO IT'S, IT'S, I'M TRYING TO JUGGLE MY HOUSE AND THAT HOUSE AND TRYING TO GET THAT DONE.
AND, UM, AND I, I, I'M JUST ASKING THE BOARD FOR A LITTLE MORE TIME.
UM, BUT MY, MY INTENTIONS ARE TO CLEAN IT UP AND, AND REBUILD IT.
AND IF IT JUST GETS TO THE POINT WHERE IT'S TOO OVERWHELMING, THEN, THEN I WILL GET WHAT THE INS THE INSPECTOR AND I HAVE TALKED AND, AND WE'LL GO TO THE OTHER OPTIONS AFTER THAT.
DO YOU ROBERT BINKY HERE? UM, YES SIR.
GIVEN, IF, IF YOU ARE GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE AN EXTENSION, ARE YOU THEN GONNA BE ABLE TO BRING US THE THREE ITEMS THAT WE REALLY NEED, WHICH WOULD BE THE SCOPE OF WORK, PRICING, UH, FINANCIAL ABILITY TO PAY FOR, SAID WORK TO BE DONE, AND SOME THINGS OF THAT NATURE? I WOULD BE ABLE TO, I'M SORRY.
NO, YOU'RE, I WOULD BE ABLE TO GET THAT.
DO YOU HAVE THE RESOURCES, SIR, TO, TO REBUILD IT? YES, SIR.
ARE YOU SOLE THERE? ARE YOU HAVE A SISTER, CORRECT? YES, I HAVE A SISTER.
SO YOU WOULD HAVE TO HAVE THE SISTER'S PERMISSION? NO, I DON'T HAVE TO HAVE THE SISTER'S PERMISSION.
ACTUALLY, I'VE, I'VE TALKED TO MY SISTER.
I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO GET AHOLD OF MY SISTER AND WE TALKED ABOUT IT AND SHE SAID, UH, JUST, YOU KNOW, DO WHAT I'M BEHIND YOU.
WHATEVER YOU NEED TO DO, DO IT.
IF NOT, THEN, THEN I'LL, I'LL TRY TO MAKE SOME TIME TO, TO, TO GET DOWN THERE AND, AND DO IT.
AND, UH, I'M TRYING TO NOT BOTHER HER WITH, YOU KNOW, I'M JUST RIGHT.
THE REASON I ASK THAT IS BECAUSE MOST CASES BEFORE US THAT END UP LIKE THIS, USUALLY THERE'S ERRORS AND IT HAS TO BE HASHED OUT PRIOR.
NO, IF YOU'VE ALREADY DONE THAT, UM, THE ENGINEER'S REPORT'S GONNA HAVE TO BE IN THERE AS WELL.
SO THERE'S GONNA BE ACTUALLY FOUR DOCUMENTS THAT YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO REQUIRE.
UM, THERE'S A, UH, FINANCIAL STATEMENT, A ITEMIZED CONTRACTOR BID, AND THEN THERE'S, DO YOU HAVE THAT, THAT SHEET THAT YOU READ? CAN YOU PLEASE READ THE THREE? WHAT WAS THE SCRIPT? YEAH.
WHERE IT SAYS, UH, WHAT'S REQUIRED WHEN YOU ON A REPAIR YOUR, UH, CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT.
WELL, ITEM ONE, PROVIDE REQUIRED DOCUMENTS, DISCUSS THE DETAILED SCOPE OF WORK.
WITH EACH COST FOR EACH ITEM OUTLINED IN ORDER TO BRING THE PROPERTY INTO COMPLIANCE.
TO THE SATISFACTION OF YOUR CODE OFFICER.
TWO, SUBMIT THE PROOF OF FINANCIAL ABILITY, BANK STATEMENTS.
WE NEED TO SEE THAT WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IS WHAT YOU'RE GONNA DO OR EVEN A LOAN IN PLACE WOULD BE ACCEPTABLE.
IS LIKE, IF YOU DON'T, YOU KNOW, THAT MIGHT BE A LOT OF MONEY.
IF YOU HAVE A LOAN, IT'S GONNA, IT'S GONNA COME OUT OF POCKET.
THAT'S, THAT'S FOR THE ESTATE PROOF OF FINANCIAL ABILITY TO PAY FOR PROPOSED WORK.
AND DISCUSS THE FEASIBILITY OF ALL REPAIRS,
[01:25:01]
DEPENDENT ON THE MONIES AT HAND.AND THREE, HOW MUCH TIME DO YOU NEED? WE CAN'T GIVE YOU, WE NEED TO GET ON IT.
AND IT'S, UH, LIKE, SO, LIKE I SAID, I'VE BEEN OVER THERE, UM, YOU KNOW, A COUPLE TIMES BY MYSELF JUST TRYING TO GET IN THERE AND, AND START WORKING ON CLEANING IT UP.
AND, UH, MY DAD JUST, HE DIDN'T CARE ANYMORE.
HE LET IT GO AND, AND UNFORTUNATELY, UNFORTUNATELY I HAVE TO CLEAN UP AFTER HIS MESS NOW.
SO, UM, BUT IT'S JUST BEEN TOO HOT.
AND YOU GET IN THERE AND YOU SMELL, YOU INHALE ALL THAT.
SO YOU GOTTA DO WHAT YOU GOTTA DO.
I KNOW NOW HOW MUCH TIME I'M NOT, I'M BAD AT, I'M BAD AT GUESSING ABOUT, I MEAN, WE'RE GONNA GIVE YOU TIME AND IT'S NOT GONNA BE MUCH, BUT SHOOT, I WANT TO SAY MAYBE FOUR MONTHS, NO CLOSE
THE BOARD WILL REVIEW, BUT LET ME ASK YOU THIS.
AND IT'S ONLY A REQUIREMENT THAT YOU BRING IT TO CODE, RIGHT? YES, SIR.
ALL, SO IF YOU CAN BRING IT TO CODE THE REST, THEN YOU CAN DO THE REST WHENEVER.
OR YOU CAN CONTINUE THE REST AS LONG AS YOU BRING IT TO CODE, THEN CODE WILL SAY, OKAY, THEY BROUGHT IT TO CODE.
THAT'S ALL WE, THE REST OF IT YOU CAN DO EITHER CONTINUE IT OR, BUT AS LONG AS IT'S UP TO CODE, THAT'S ALL WE'RE REQUIRING ON A REPAIR.
SO IT'S NOT THAT YOU HAVE TO REPAIR THE WHOLE THING AT ONCE, IT'S JUST BRING IT TO CODE AND CODE OFFICER WILL DEFINE CODE.
NOW YOU HAVEN'T TALKED TO HOW MANY CONTRACTORS AND ALL THAT HAVE YOU TALKED TO AND GOT A BALLPARK? THEY SAID EITHER BETWEEN 60,000 TO A HUNDRED THOUSAND BECAUSE SOME OF THE TRUSTS, BECAUSE, BECAUSE SOME OF THE TRUSTS ARE THAT THE BIGGEST THING WAS THE TRUSS OR THE SUPPORT OF THE HOUSE.
AND THAT WAS, THERE'S A COUPLE TRUSS IN THAT, AND WHERE MY DAD'S ROOM IS WHERE THE FIRE STARTED, UM, THAT'S WHERE MOST OF THE BIG DAMAGE OF THE TRUSSES ARE IS, IS IN THAT AREA.
UM, THE REST OF IT, BY LOOKING AT IT.
AND, UH, USA WAS OUT THERE AND WE DID AN INSPECTION THEN AND, UM, IT, IT LOOKED LIKE THE REST OF WAS WATER DAMAGE AND SMOKE DAMAGE.
THERE WERE HOLES PUNCHED IN BY THE, BY BY THE FIREFIGHTERS.
UM, BUT THEY WERE IN BETWEEN THE TRUSSES.
THEY WEREN'T EXACTLY, UM, THEY DIDN'T INFECT THE TRUSS.
SO THE MOST OF THE DAMAGE WAS, IS IN THE FRONT AREA ON THE LEFT OF THE LEFT SIDE OF THE HOUSE.
SO THAT'S, UM, I WOULD HAVE TO GET IN THERE AND, AND SEE WHAT TRUSS.
UM, I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THE HOUSE.
I WOULD HAVE TO GO BACK AND SEE, YOU KNOW, UM, I DON'T KNOW.
WELL JUST, JUST BE CAREFUL ABOUT GIVING ANYBODY ANY LARGE AMOUNT OF MONEY.
I KNOW THAT I'VE, I'VE, THAT'S HAPPENED TO ME AND THEY, THEY TOOK EVERYTHING FROM ME, FROM, YOU KNOW, ACT IN MY BANK.
TIME IS WHAT YOU'RE ASKING FOR.
AND YOU SAID FOUR MONTHS? YES SIR.
IF POSSIBLE, IF THAT'S IF POSSIBLE, IF YOU GUYS CREATE THAT, WELL, IT, IT, THAT'S WE'LL FIGURE.
BUT, SO THE THREE DOCUMENTS THAT YOU NEED, AND IN THE STATEMENT, THEY CODE ALWAYS ASK FOR AN ENGINEER'S REPORT.
THERE'S NEVER BEEN IT SAYS IT.
WHEN THEY READ IT OUT, NO ENGINEER'S REPORT, NO OTHER DOCUMENTS HAVE COME UP.
SO THE ONLY THING I WOULD ADD TO THE THREE IS AN ENGINEER'S REPORT BECAUSE CODE ASKED FOR, AND IT MAY BEHOOVE YOU TO HAVE AN ENGINEER'S REPORT THAT SAYS, HEY, IT MAY NOT BE FEASIBLE, SO YOU GO TO THE NEXT STEP, BUT WE'LL DEAL WITH THAT AT THIS TIME.
SO AS LONG AS YOU CAN PROVIDE AND YOU'RE WILLING, WE'LL TAKE THAT INTO ACCOUNT, BUT IT'S GONNA BE WHATEVER THE PERSON WHO MAKES THE RECOMMENDATION.
SO, UM, ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS? YEAH, UH, I HAVE NONE.
MR. GRIMES, UH, MR. CHAIRMAN, UH, IS THERE, WAS THERE A HOMEOWNER'S INSURANCE POLICY OR A FIRE POLICY ON THIS PROPERTY? UH, THERE WAS, AND THAT WAS, AND THAT WAS TAKEN CARE OF AFTER MY, MY DAD PASSED AWAY.
AND WE, AND WE'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THE COURT TO, I FORGET WHAT IT'S, UH, PROBATE.
UM, I CAN'T EVER REMEMBER THAT WORD, BUT WE WERE WAITING FOR THE, UM, THE PROBATE, UH, PROCESS TO HAPPEN.
[01:30:01]
AND NOW THAT IT'S FINALLY HAPPENED AND, AND, AND I'M ABLE TO, TO, TO GET IN THERE AND DO SOME STUFF, UM, UH, THAT'S, THAT'S WHAT I'VE BEEN WORKING ON.SO THE INSURANCE MONEY WAS NOT TOUCHED AFTER HE PASSED? IT WAS GIVEN TO HIM, CORRECT? THE INSURANCE WAS PAID OFF? NO, ACTUALLY NO.
IT WAS SENT, IT WAS SENT TO ME AND IT WENT TO MY, IT WENT TO THE ESTATE.
IT WAS, WELL, THAT'S, THAT'S WHAT I'M SAYING.
SO THE INSURANCE MONEY'S IN THE ESTATE RIGHT NOW? YES, SIR.
SO YOU HAVE THAT AS WELL? YES, SIR.
WITH WHATEVER ELSE YOU NEED TO COME UP WITH.
SO IT HASN'T BEEN TOUCHED OR SPENT OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT? OKAY.
WE, WE, WE PUT ALL THE, ALL THE STUFF THAT MY DAD, YOU KNOW, THE STUFF THAT WE GOTTEN RID OF MY DAD SO FAR, IT'S ALL IN THE ALL WE HAVE AN ESTATE ACCOUNT THAT WE HAVEN'T TOUCHED.
THAT'S WHAT YOU CAN ALSO PUT ON THE, WHEN WE ASK FOR THOSE DOCUMENTS, THAT'S PART OF THE THING.
OKAY? YOU HAVE THAT AS AN, AS AN ASSET AND ANY OTHER MONEY THAT YOU HAVE WHEN THOSE DOCUMENTS ARE GIVEN TO US, IT HAVE TO BE, OTHERWISE IT'S GONNA HURT YOU IF YOU DON'T PUT THAT IN THERE.
ANYBODY ELSE HAVE ANY QUESTIONS? NO.
THERE'S NO FURTHER LEGAL, NO QUESTIONS.
NO LEGAL DOESN'T HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.
IF THERE'S NO FURTHER QUESTIONS, DO I HAVE A MOTION? I, ROBERT BINKY, HOLD ON.
LEGAL AGAINST, I, I, I DO WANNA REMIND THIS BOARD, UM, BOARD AGAIN HAS THREE OPTIONS.
IF THEY DETERMINE THAT IT IS A DANGEROUS STRUCTURE, UM, THERE IS NO, UM, SCOPE OF WORK THAT'S BEEN PROVIDED OR PROOF OF FINANCIAL MEANS.
SO IF THIS BOARD WERE TO GIVE, IF THIS BOARD WERE TO GIVE A REPAIR ORDER WITHOUT ANY OF THE THREE OR, UH, IT CAN ONLY BE 30 DAYS, UM, THE BOARD DOES HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO, UM, ASK, UM, UH, THE PROPERTY OWNER'S SON TO, TO BRING ADDITIONAL INFORMATION TO THEM.
THAT WOULD, AGAIN, IT WOULD HAVE TO BE A RESET, BUT I, I DO WANNA MAKE SURE, UM, THE OPTIONS THAT THE BOARD HAS IN FRONT OF THEM.
THANK YOU, MR. CHAIRMAN, JUST, JUST TO CLARIFY WITH LEGAL, ONE OF THE OPTIONS IS TO FIND THE, THE PROPERTY IS A PUBLIC NUISANCE, BUT IS FEASIBLE TO BE REPAIRED AND THAT WE COULD, UH, DIRECT THE PROPERTY TO BE REPAIRED WITHIN 90 DAYS.
HOWEVER, THERE WAS NO SCOPE OF WORK.
THERE WAS NO BIG THREE AS WE LIKE TO CALL THEM, THAT WAS BROUGHT.
UH, SO THIS BOARD DOES HAVE THE ABILITY TO RESET THE, THE, THE CASE TO ALLOW, UM, THE PROPERTY OWNER TO BRING SOME INFORMATION THAT WILL SATISFY THE BOARD.
IF THE BOARD DECIDES THAT THEY DO WANT TO GIVE A, UH, A REPAIR ORDER, IT WOULD BE LIMITED TO 30 DAYS DUE TO THE FACT THAT HE HAS NOT BROUGHT ANY, UM, UM, UM, PROOF OR, OR FINANCIAL MEANS.
MR. FANCE, I'D LIKE TO MAKE A, A MOTION AT THIS TIME, I'D LIKE TO RESET THE CASE TO ALLOW THE INDIVIDUAL TO GATHER THE DOCUMENTS, ALSO TO INCLUDE THE ENGINEER'S REPORT, AND I'D LIKE TO RESET IT FOR 30 DAYS.
WE HAVE A MOTION, UH, FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 9 2 4 7, UH, BRASWELL STREET, SAN ANTONIO 7 8 2 5 4 IS A PUBLIC NUISANCE PER CITY CODE CHAPTER SIX, ARTICLE EIGHT, SECTION SIX DASH 15 SEVEN, WHICH IS FEASIBLE TO BE REPAIRED AT THIS TIME.

AND, UH, WE'RE GOING TO ALLOW A RESET FOR 30 DAYS.
WELL, THAT'S WHAT I'M GETTING TO DO NEXT.
I STAND CORRECTED, SO WE'RE JUST GONNA DO A RESET.
WELL, WE HAVE TO VOTE ON RESET.
AND CAN WE HAVE, MY THING WAS WHEN YOU SAID ALLOW MEANS IT'S ALREADY BEEN DONE AND IT HASN'T YET.
WE STILL HAVE TO GET A SECOND IN VOTE.
[01:35:01]
DORIS ELISE.BUT IT HASN'T BEEN SECONDED, SO WE REALLY CAN'T VOTE ON IT.
WELL, YEAH, IT HAS TO BE SECONDED BEFORE WE TAKE THE VOTE.
IT HAS BEEN SECONDED BY, SECONDED BY ROLLETTE SHARKING GHOST.
ROBERT BANK AYE, WHILE THAT SHREK AND GOES AYE.
MOTION PASSES WITH THE VOTE OF SEVEN TO ZERO.
MOTION PASSES FOR RESET SEVEN TO ZERO.
AND I STAND CORRECTED BECAUSE I FORGOT TO READ THE FIRST PART OF THAT BEFORE I, SO DO YOU WANT ME TO HAPPEN AGAIN? I KNOW.

THE SCHOOL THAT IS LOCATED IS MORE THAN A THOUSAND FEET AWAY.
UM, THERE IS A GAS STATION AND A RESTAURANT ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE ACROSS, ACROSS, UH, PECAN VALLEY DRIVE.
IS THIS TRAFFIC AREA FOR KIDS TO GO AT THE BUS, UH, THE CROSSINGS AND STUFF OR NO? NO, SIR.
AND THERE'S BEEN SIGN OF PEOPLE IN THERE, CORRECT? YES, SIR.
HAS THIS EVER BEEN ABATED? IT WAS ABATED.
UH, THE LAST TIME THIS PROPERTY WAS CLEAN AND SECURED BY THE CITY WAS ON DECEMBER 12TH, 2023.
AND THE TOTAL COST OF THE ABATEMENT WAS $274.
AND THAT'S THE ONLY TIME? YES, SIR.
SO SOMEBODY'S PULLED THAT WALL AWAY FROM THAT.
I'M, I'M NOT SURE THE ELEVATION, UH, IT'S REAL CLEAR IN 1 47 THAT WHERE THEY PULLED THAT WALL AWAY, THE CORNER, THAT'S THE LEFT SIDE ELEVATION.
SO, SO THAT ELEVATION, 'CAUSE WHEN YOU TAKE ONE OF THE PICTURES OF THAT WALL ON 1 45, IT DOESN'T APPEAR TO BE PULLED AWAY, BUT THIS ONE CLEAR, SOMEBODY'S PULLED IT AWAY PROBABLY TO GETTING ACCESS.
BUT WITH THAT LIKE THAT YOU DIDN'T ORDER ANOTHER ABATEMENT TO GET THAT SECURED? WE HAVE ONE THAT'S ACTIVE RIGHT NOW.
ON THE PROPERTY AND THE HOUSE OR JUST THE HOUSE? ON THE HOUSE.
AND THAT'S PENDING AND THE PROPERTY.
AND THAT'S PENDING? THAT'S PENDING.
AND NO SIGN OF ANYBODY WHEN YOU GO THERE? THE VERY FIRST TIME ON THE INITIAL INSPECTION, THERE WAS ONE, UH, HOMELESS INDIVIDUAL THAT WAS SLEEPING ON THE, ON THE PORCH, THE FRONT PORCH, BUT NOT IN, BUT NOT IN, BUT SOMEBODY'S BEEN IN THERE.
