THIS IS KATHY RODRIGUEZ, DEVELOPMENT SERVICES ADMINISTRATOR. UH, JUST, UH, A LITTLE CLARIFICATION. THE DECONSTRUCTION ORDINANCE IS CITYWIDE AND IS NOT, UH, ONLY FOCUSED ON PROPERTIES THAT ARE ZONED HISTORIC. AND SO THIS CASE, YOU'RE NOT RECOMMENDING ANY DECONSTRUCTION, IS THAT CORRECT? UM, ACCORDING TO THE OFFICE OF HISTORIC PRESERVATION, THEY DO NOT RECOMMEND ANY DECON DECONSTRUCTION. I DID SEE THAT, UM, IN THE NOTES THAT IT SAID THAT THIS WAS A VACANT, UH, VACANT BUILDING NOTICE OF VACATE. NO, NO, NO. THAT, THAT IT, UM, VACANT, VACANT BUILDING PROGRAM. WHAT HAPPENED WITH THAT? I JUST HAD A NOTE AND THEN IT NEVER SAID ANYTHING ELSE, TO BE HONEST WITH YOU. THIS THEN, UH, VACANT BUILDING PROGRAM, IT'S HANDLED BY, UH, THE VACANT BUILDING PROGRAM DEPARTMENT. MM-HMM . AS SOON AS THEY COMPLETE THEIR INVESTIGATION AND THEY HAVE A PROCESS, AS SOON AS THEY COMPLETE ALL THAT PROCESS AND INVESTIGATION AND POSSIBLY ISSUE CITATIONS, THEN WE GET THE GREEN LIGHT TO PROCEED WITH OUR DP, UH, BSP HEARING. OKAY. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? CAN I FOLLOW UP WITH STAFF ON THE, UH, DECONSTRUCT? WAS THAT NOT DONE BY THE YEAR OF THE HOUSE? CORRECT? UH, YES, SIR. THIS IS KATHY RODRIGUEZ RESPONDING. UM, YES, IT IS BASED ON THE CONSTRUCTION DATE FOR THE, UH, PRIMARY STRUCTURES, AND THIS ONE WAS 1942, SO IT WOULD FALL WITHIN THAT PROGRAM. UM, IT, IT COULD BE SUBJECT TO THE ORDINANCE, BUT THE STAFF, UH, PROBABLY DID AN ASSESSMENT OF THE MATERIALS AVAILABLE FOR SALVAGE AND DETERMINE THAT, UH, DECONSTRUCTION WAS NOT WARRANTED. ALRIGHT, THANKS. AND IF I COULD ALSO ADD A, A, A FINAL COMMENT REGARDING THE VACANT BUILDING PROGRAM. SO YES, CORRECT. THIS IS IN THE VACANT BUILDING PROGRAM AREA. IT WAS AN ACTIVE CASE.

AND THEN WE ALSO NOTICED THEM, UH, IN THE, THE SHED STRUCTURE IN THE BACK. UM, THERE'S ALSO A LOT OF KNOWN DRUG DEALERS THAT WE OBSERVE, UH, ON OUR DAILY PATROL BUYS. SO WE KNEW THAT THERE WAS A LOT OF DRUG ACTIVITY GOING ON AT THE LOCATION. UM, WE'VE ALSO HAD 35 CALLS WITHIN THE LAST TWO YEAR SPAN, UM, RELATED TO ASSAULTS, OVERDOSE, UM, FIRE. UM, WE'VE ALSO RECOVERED, UH, STOLEN VEHICLES, UM, JUST NEXT TO THE PROPERTY. UM, LIKE MS. TOWNS SAID, WE DID DO A DARK WARRANT THAT WAS, UH, BACK IN SEPTEMBER OF LAST YEAR. AND WE DID LOCATE A LOT OF DRUG PARAPHERNALIA, UM, INSIDE THE PROPERTY. AND THERE WAS ALSO, UH, AN ARREST MADE DURING THAT DART WARRANT.

BUT THERE I, THERE THE PEOPLE THAT WE OBSERVE HANGING OUT WERE HOUSELESS INDIVIDUALS THAT WE COMMUNICATED WITH. WE, WE HAD, WE HAVE A GOOD RAPPORT WITH THE, THE HOUSE THAT'S IN OUR AREA, AND THEN SOME KNOWN DRUG DEALERS THAT WOULD HANG OUT ON THE FRONT PORCH AS WELL, THE OWNERS. DID YOU EVER MAKE CONTACT TO GET A, UH, TRESPASS? I NEVER, NEVER MADE CONTACT WITH THE OWNERS AT ALL. UM, I WOULD, I WOULD'VE LOVED TO, TO TO GIVE THEM THAT THE CTA CRIMINAL TRESPASS AFFIDAVIT.

SO, UM, LIKE REALLY PERTAINING TO LIKE THE BUDGET, THE BUDGETS THAT WE HAVE IS BASICALLY THE BANK STATEMENTS FOR LAST MONTH FOR BOTH COMPANIES THAT I OWN. UM, IT'S A LANDSCAPE COMPANY AND A CONTRACTING COMPANY. SO WE ARE VERY SKILLED IN DEVELOPING PROPERTIES INSIDE AND OUTSIDE. UH, WE ALSO PROVIDED A PICTURE OF US. WE CUT THE PROPERTY YESTERDAY, WE'LL, YOU KNOW, KEEP THE PROPERTY MAINTAINED. WE HAVE DUMP TRAILERS, TRUCKS, SKID STEERS, ALL THE EQUIPMENT THAT'S NEEDED TO DEVELOP PROPERTIES. WE'VE HAVE DEVELOPED PROPERTIES FOR 15 YEARS INSIDE AND OUTSIDE. UM, THERE'S ALSO PICTURES SHOWING SOME OF THE PROPERTIES THAT WE HAVE TAKEN CARE OF. UM, WE HAVE LIKE BASICALLY EVERY, ALL THE MEANS TO TAKE CARE OF WHATEVER IT IS. RIGHT. AND, UM, WE JUST WANTED TO JUST KIND OF LET YOU KNOW OUR BACKGROUND. WE'VE BEEN DOING THIS 15 YEARS. WE ARE AN AWARD-WINNING COMPANY. YOU KNOW, WE, HUNDREDS OF REVIEWS, LIKE, I MEAN, I DON'T KNOW IF THAT MATTERS OR NOT, BUT JUST, I JUST WANNA LET YOU KNOW THE EXPERIENCE THAT WE HAVE, YOU KNOW, HERE AND HOW PROFESSIONAL WE ARE WITH OUR BUSINESSES AND THAT WE CAN TAKE ON THIS PROPERTY. OKAY. UM, I THINK WE PROVIDED, UM, A COUPLE OF COPIES OF THE PACKETS THAT YOU GUYS HAVE IN FRONT OF YOU. UM, MY NAME IS JOAQUIN ARCH. UM, I'M PARTNERING WITH THEM AND CONSULTING ON THIS PROJECT. I HAVE OVER 18 YEARS OF CONSTRUCTION EXPERIENCE, NOT ONLY ON THE EAST SIDE, UM, ALL OVER THE COUNTRY. I'VE BEEN TO DETROIT AND DEALT WITH PROPERTIES LIKE THIS THAT WOULD BE WAY WORSE. WE DO A LOT OF INSURANCE PROJECTS. UM, WE FELT I'VE BEEN, WE ORIGINALLY FOUND OUT ABOUT THIS PROPERTY. A BUDDY OF MINE SAID IT WAS FOR SALE, SO I WENT TO THE WEST. UM, WE KNOW THAT SAN ANTONIO IS MOVING WEST, SO WE TRY TO KIND OF LOOK FORWARD AND TRY TO HELP AREAS THAT ARE SLUM AND BLIGHTED. RIGHT. SO THAT'S THE METH METHOD AND ISSUE OF SAN ANTONIO. AND JUST FOR THE RECORD, MY BACKGROUND, I HAVE A MASTER'S IN COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT. SO THESE KIND OF THINGS ARE NEAR AND DEAR TO ME FOR THE CITY OF SAN ANTONIO. AND WE HAVE EXTENSIVE, UM, EXPERIENCE WITH INSURANCE CLAIMS AND DEALING WITH FIRE AND MITIGATING. SO ORIGINALLY THIS PROPERTY WAS FOR SALE FOR ABOUT $30,000. IT WAS OFFERED TO US FOR ABOUT $30,000. WE KIND OF SAT ON IT, WE THOUGHT THAT WAS A LITTLE BIT TOO HIGH FOR OUR BUDGET. AND THEN ABOUT THREE WEEKS AGO THEY CAME BACK AND THEY DROPPED THE PRICE TO 15,000. AND SO WE FELT THAT THAT MET THE REQUIREMENTS. WE WENT THROUGH TITLE, TITLE NEVER MADE US AWARE OF ANY OF THE ISSUES THAT WERE INVOLVED WITH THE CITY. WE, WE JUST DIDN'T KNOW, UM, MAYBE OUR FAULT FOR NOT GOING SO DEEP AND DEALING WITH THE CITY, BUT OUR GOAL WAS DEALING WITH THE, THE PREVIOUS OWNERS THAT THEY DIDN'T, THEY DIDN'T SHINE ANY LIGHT ON IT THAT THERE, THERE HADN'T BEEN ANY ISSUES. I KNOW THIS WAS A DRUG AREA. I MEAN, I, I GREW UP ON THE EAST SIDE OF SAN ANTONIO, SO THOSE THINGS DON'T FRIGHTEN ME. UM, JUST LIKE HE SAID, THEY HAVE A GOOD RELATIONSHIP WITH THE PEOPLE. LIKE I'VE TALKED TO THE GUYS THAT ARE PROBABLY THE KNOWN PEOPLE IN THE AREA AND THEY'RE PEOPLE, RIGHT? IF YOU HAVE A CONVERSATION WITH 'EM, EVEN THE PEOPLE THAT WERE, UM, SQUATTING THERE, WE'VE TALKED TO 'EM, WE'RE LIKE, HEY, WE, WE JUST RECENTLY BOUGHT THE PROPERTY. DON'T DAMAGE THE PROPERTY. WE CAN'T, NOT TELLING YOU NOT TO STAY HERE, BUT WE'RE NOT TELLING YOU TO LEAVE EITHER BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, WE DON'T WANT TO UPSET 'EM AND THEM TRY TO DAMAGE THE PROPERTY ANY FURTHER. BUT, UM, OUR GOAL WOULD BE TO PUT THE NO TRESPASS ORDER IN PLACE SO THAT THE, THE POLICE OFFICERS WILL HAVE OUR UNDIVIDED INTENTION ON WHATEVER NEEDS TO HAPPEN MOVING FORWARD. WE ARE HERE TO ASK FOR AN EXTENSION SO THAT WE CAN ADDRESS WHATEVER CONCERNS YOU GUYS HAVE SO THAT WE CAN MOVE FORWARD WITH OUR FINANCING. IT'S EASIER FOR OUR FINANCING IF IT'S THE STRUCTURE THERE VERSUS JUST A LOT. AND LIKE WE ALL KNOW, NOBODY ELSE WANTS ANY MORE VACANT LOTS IN THE NEIGHBORHOODS. UM, WE FEEL THAT ON IF THOSE PICTURES THAT THE, UM, CODE FOUND, UM, A LOT OF THESE OLDER BUILDINGS HAVE SHIPLAP, WHICH ACTUALLY HELPED IN THIS CASE. SO IT PROTECTED A LOT OF THOSE ROOF RAFTERS. THERE'S NOT A LOT OF DAMAGE TO THE ROOF RAFTERS YET. THERE IS SOME DAMAGE TO THE OUTSIDE. THERE'S PROBABLY 80% SMOKE AND THEN PROBABLY 20% FIRE ON THIS PROJECT. UM, WE FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH BEING ABLE TO DO THE FOUNDATION. I KNOW THAT THAT BUDGET MAY SEEM A LITTLE BIT LOW, BUT WE ARE, WE'RE ABLE TO DO IT AT COST BECAUSE WE HAVE A SURPLUS OF MATERIAL FROM OTHER JOBS. IT'S NOT A REALLY BIG HOUSE. UM, WE, WE WANT TO BUILD IT UP. WE SHOW BEFORE AND AFTERS. WE'RE NOT GONNA CHANGE ANY OF THE DESIGN TO IT. UM, AND WE'LL, WE'LL HAVE A PERMIT PULLED WITHIN THE NEXT THREE WEEKS. UM, OUR FINANCING HAS ALREADY BEEN MOVING FORWARD TO BE SECURED. UM, AND WE, WE HAVE THE MEANS TO, UM, MAKE THIS A HOUSE THAT'S WILL IMPROVE [01:15:01] THE AREA VERSUS, YOU KNOW, CREATING A VACANT LOT. SO THAT'S WHAT WE CAME HERE TO ASK. WHATEVER THAT MAXIMUM AMOUNT OF EXTENSION TIME IS THAT YOU CAN ALLOW US, UM, THAT, THAT WILL BE. UM, HOW MUCH TIME DO YOU NEED TO DO THE REPAIRS? LIKE ONCE, ONCE YOU GET THE FIRST PERMIT, HOW MUCH TIME WILL IT TAKE? OH, WELL, ONCE WE SECURE OUR FINANCE AND FINANCING USUALLY CAN TAKE ABOUT 30, 45 DAYS FOR US TO GET IT SECURED AND SAY, HEY, WE'RE GONNA MOVE FORWARD WITH IT. UM, ONCE WE DO THAT, IT'S PROBABLY GONNA TAKE US, UH, I'D SAY 120 DAYS FROM NOW. YEAH, A HUNDRED, 120 DAYS FROM NOW. AND THEN, 'CAUSE WE GOTTA GET THE ENGINEERS INVOLVED. WE DON'T WANNA JUST SAY, HEY, WE'RE GONNA MOVE THIS WALL, TAKE THIS WALL, HAVE THE ENGINEER TELL US HOW TO STRUCTURALLY REPAIR IT, AND THEN STILL SAVE THOSE ROOF RAFTERS. 'CAUSE THAT'LL SAVE US SOME TIME TOO. I THINK CONSTRUCTION TIME, WE'RE PROBABLY TALKING ABOUT, UH, 60 TO 90 DAYS. 60 TO 90 DAYS ON THE CONSTRUCTION. SO TOTAL SIX MONTHS. UM, JUST USING THAT AS A, A GAUGE WITH THE FINANCING. MOVING FORWARD ON CONSTRUCTION, OUR PLAN IS REALLY NOT TO DEMO IT UNLESS WE HAVE TO. BUT EVEN DEMOING IT, WE, WE FEEL COMFORTABLE MOVING FORWARD IF WE SECURE THE FUNDING WITH THE STRUCTURE THERE. IT'S ENOUGH MONEY FOR US TO PUT SOME OF OUR OWN MONEY TO GET IT TO THE FINISH LINE. CAN I SAY ONE THING? OKAY. UH, IS THERE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? OH, UH, GO AHEAD. MORE THING. THIS IS BRADLEY FORD. UM, WE, EVEN IF WE DO GO TOWARDS DEMO, LIKE, LIKE HE SAID, WE HAVE THE MEANS, BUT I JUST WANNA ELABORATE ON THAT. LIKE, THE STAFFING. WE HAVE 16 EMPLOYEES, WE HAVE TWO DUMP TRAILERS. SO IT'S, IT'S REALLY, IT WOULDN'T, IT WOULD BE COST EFFICIENT FOR US TO DO IT AND NOT YOU GUYS DO IT AND THEN SEND US THE BILL. WE CAN SAVE, YOU KNOW, A LOT OF MONEY ON DOING IT OURSELVES AND DOING IT THE RIGHT WAY. OF COURSE. BUT I JUST WANTED TO ELABORATE ON THAT. SO, TO BE CLEAR, YOU WANT TO PREPARE IT. YES. YES. AND IT'S NOT DEMOLISHING, RIGHT? RIGHT. OKAY. THE ENGINEERS IS GOING. I, I DON'T THINK AN ENGINEER HAS BEEN INVOLVED IN THIS PROCESS. AND LIKE I SAID, THE OWNERS NEVER MADE US AWARE THAT THIS WAS EVEN AN ISSUE. 'CAUSE THIS WOULD'VE BEEN OUR FIRST STOP ONCE WE PURCHASED IT. 'CAUSE IF YOU LOOK AT THE, UH, TRAIL, 'CAUSE THAT'S ONE OF THE QUESTIONS WE ASKED WHEN WE CAME DOWN HERE A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO WHEN WE KNEW THAT THIS CASE WAS COMING. 'CAUSE WE FOUND OUT ABOUT IT 'CAUSE IT WAS STUCK TO THE DOOR AND ONE OF OUR GUYS WENT OUT JUST KIND OF ASSESSING WHAT THEY HAD TO DO TO CLEAN THE PROPERTY UP. AND THEY WERE LIKE, HEY, THIS NOTICE IS HERE. WE HAVE IT. YEAH, WE HAVE IT. AND THE NOTICE CAME OUT A WEEK AFTER WE PURCHASED IT. SO TITLE DIDN'T CATCH IT. SO REALLY FOR US, IT'S A TITLE ISSUE, RIGHT. SO WE HAVE TITLE INSURANCE, THEY SHOULD HAVE CAUGHT THIS, BUT IF IT WASN'T EVER POSTED ANYWHERE, THEY COULDN'T HAVE CAUGHT IT. SO IT'S LIKE A CATCH 22 FOR US. I MEAN, WE FEEL LIGHTED A LITTLE BIT THAT THE OWNER DIDN'T, UM, DIDN'T MAKE US AWARE OF IT, BUT IT'S NOT MUCH WE CAN DO ON THAT RIGHT NOW. SO I CAN ASSUME THAT THE REMEDIATIONS WEREN'T PAID, CORRECT? I'M SORRY, WHAT? UH, THE, THE, LIKE WHEN THEY WENT AND CUT THE GRASS, WHEN THE CITY WENT AND CUT THE GRASS AND CLEANED UP THE PROPERTY PREVIOUS, THAT HASN'T BEEN PAID MOST LIKELY NOT, UH, PRIOR ABATEMENTS TO, UH, MAY 13TH, UH, WILL, UH, MOST LIKELY HAVE NOT BEEN PAID AND THEY HAVE TURNED INTO LIENS. SO, UH, AGAIN, THAT UH, THE TITLE COMPANY YEAH. SHOULD HAVE CAUGHT THOSE. AND ALSO, UH, THE NOTICES FOR, UH, UPCOMING BSB HEARINGS ARE ALSO RECORDED IN THE DEED RECORDS. SO BRING THAT UP WITH YOUR TITLE COMPANY AS WELL. NO, NO, DEFINITELY. AND IT WASN'T OUR TITLE COMPANY OF OUR SELECTION. THE SELLER WAS LIKE, HEY, THEY HAD A PARTICULAR TITLE COMPANY THEY WANTED TO GO TO, BUT ANY DOCUMENTATION THAT COULD BE PROVIDED TO US, 'CAUSE WE CAN SEND THAT TO TITLE AND BE LIKE, HEY, THESE ARE NOT ON US. LIKE REALLY? THAT'S A, YEAH, WE HAVE A ISSUE TO BRING UP WITH THE TITLE COMPANY. I SEE. YOU WANNA GO FRED? GO AHEAD. YEAH. AS A CONTRACTOR, I SEE YOU GOT SOME OF THE STUFF WE REQUIRE AND YOU ALREADY MENTIONED THAT THAT IS A LOW ESTIMATE. YES. LOW, VERY LOW ESTIMATE. WE WE'RE VERY AWARE, BUT YOU DIDN'T PROVIDE US WITH A SCOPE OF WORK AND THAT I SAW MM-HMM . THE, THE SCOPE IS THE REHAB BUDGET CREDENTIALS. WELL THAT IS THE PAPERWORK AND THE TIMELINE. YOU DIDN'T PROVIDE US WITH AN EXACT, BECAUSE IN HERE THE HANDS ARE TIED FOR US AS SPECIFIC MILESTONES. 90, 120 EXCEPT [01:20:01] DATES, WHICH YOU DON'T HAVE THAT PAPERWORK OUT. YOU JUST GOT THIS IN MAY. YES, SIR. CORRECT. A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO. RIGHT. NOW HAVE YOU TALKED TO THE POLICE OFFICERS THAT PATROL THAT AREA? NO, I HAVE NOT. SO YOU WEREN'T EVEN AWARE OF A DAR OPERATION ON THAT HOUSE? NO, SIR. ALRIGHT. YOUR TIMELINE. NOW THAT'S THE MAIN, ARE YOU INTENDING TO DO THIS, THE, UH, UH, ACCESSORY TOO? ARE YOU PUTTING THAT INTO THIS BUDGET OR IS THAT A WRITE OFF? NO, THE ACCESSORY WILL BE DONE AT A, AT A LATER DATE. I MEAN, ONCE WE SECURE FUNDING, THE ACCESSORY WILL BE INCLUDED IN THAT FUNDING. WELL, THE REASON I ASK THAT IS 'CAUSE BOTH PARTS ARE, ARE UP FOR DEMO. GOTCHA. SO WE PLAN ON KEEPING THE ACCESSORY DEAL. IT, IT, IT, IT ADDS VALUE TO THE PROPERTY. UM, WE WE'RE INVESTORS. RIGHT. AND AGAIN, IF THAT ENGINEER SAYS DIFFERENT THAN YEAH, FOR SURE. WE, WE, WE, WE HAVE THE . SO THAT'LL GIVE YOU MORE RECOMMENDATION. THAT GIVES YOU MORE MONEY FOR THE MAIN, FOR SURE. ALRIGHT, SO YOUR INTENT IS TO FIX IT, FIX IT UP, REHAB IT PRETTY MUCH MM-HMM . AND ADD VALUE TO THAT COMMUNITY. YES, SIR. AND YOU, YOU'RE LOOKING AT WHAT THE MAX ABOUT 120 DAYS OR YOU THINK YOU NEED MORE? 120 DAYS WOULD BE ADEQUATE FOR US TO GET THE ENGINEERS INVOLVED, GET THE PERMITS PULLED, GET OUR YEAH. 'CAUSE YOU'RE NOT GONNA PULL PERMITS UNTIL THIS IS RESOLVED, SO, RIGHT, RIGHT. YEAH. SO, SO YEAH, NO. OKAY. AND WE, RIGHT NOW WE'RE, WE'RE AT THE POINT WHERE WE'RE TRYING TO FOLLOW ALL THE STEPS AND WHATEVER YOU SAY, HEY, FROM HERE TO THE ONE 20, THIS IS WHAT WE WANNA SEE. THAT'S WHAT WE'RE GONNA PROVIDE. LIKE WHEN WE LEAVE HERE TODAY, IT'S GONNA HAVE THE, UM, NO TRESPASS ORDER PUT ON THERE. SO YOU WILL HAVE A NO TRESPASS PUT ON IT TODAY. YEP. AND WE'LL, WHATEVER NOTATIONS THAT WE DON'T, WE ARE NOT REQUIRED A PHONE CALL THAT THEY HAVE PERMISSION TO ARREST ANYONE THAT THEY'VE, THEY'VE CITED THAT SHOULDN'T BE ON THE PROPERTY. AND IF DEMO IS ORDERED, YOU'VE ALREADY GOT THAT COVERED. YES. IF DEMO IS ORDERED, THAT'S ALL COVERED AS WELL. MM-HMM . UM, IF DEMO IS ORDERED, WELL, WE WOULDN'T WANT A DEMO ORDERED. NO, WE WANT TO, WHAT I'M SAYING IS BECAUSE IF IT'S ORDERED, YOU ALREADY HAVE THAT. OH, SO YOU, YOU'VE GOT IT COVERED IF IT'S REPAIR OR IF IT OH, YES SIR. YES SIR. BUT LIKE FOR OUR FINANCING SAKE, THEY WANNA SEE A STRUCTURE IT'S WAY, WELL, WE ALL WANNA SEE A STRUCTURE IT'S WAY, BUT IT'S WAY EASIER FOR US TO GET FINANCES SECURED WHEN THEY SEND SOMEONE OUT AND SAY, OH, THERE IS A STRUCTURE HERE. THEY DON'T DECIDE WHETHER IT'S TOO FAR PAST REPAIR OR NOT. THEY JUST WANNA SEE A STRUCTURE THAT CAN BE REPAIRED. AND I WANT TO MAKE, UH, THE BOARD AWARE, UH, I BELIEVE THE ASK WAS FOR 180 DAYS TOTAL. SO, UH, WHAT THE 180 DAYS, UH, WOULD COME THE REQUIREMENT FOR, UH, REGULAR, UH, PROGRESS REPORTS. HOWEVER, UH, THE, THE STRUCTURE IS, UH, REQUIRED TO BE REGISTERED UNDER OUR VACANT BUILDING PROGRAM UNTIL SUCH TIME AS, UH, IT BECOMES OCCUPIED. SO, UH, KATHY'S TEAM WITH THE, UH, VACANT BUILDING PROGRAM WILL, ONCE THEY'RE REGISTERED, THEY ALSO CONDUCT ROUTINE, UH, INSPECTIONS OF THE PROPERTY. SO, UH, NOT ONLY WILL VACANT BUILDING BE ASSESSING IT, THE PROGRESS, UH, CODE WILL AS WELL, UH, SECOND, UH, ISSUE, UH, CRYSTAL OR THE, UH, OFFICERS, UH, DO Y'ALL HAVE, DO YOU HAVE THE, UH, DARK TRESPASS AFFIDAVIT ON YOU? NO. UH, OFFICERS, DO Y'ALL HAVE ONE? ? I I DO HAVE A QUESTION. WHAT, WHAT, UM, WHAT PRECINCT OR WHAT PRECINCT OFFICE DO YOU GUYS OPERATE? UH, I I I'M SORRY. ALL THIS CONVERSATION HAS TO HAPPEN ON THE MIC. OKAY. SO, UM, NO, MY QUESTION WAS WHICH PRECINCT OFFICE? 'CAUSE I KNOW WE CAN PHYSICALLY GO IN AND JUST DO IT RIGHT THERE. IT'S, IT'S THE, UH, CENTRAL SUBSTATION. OH, DOWNTOWN? YES. OKAY. UH, RIGHT THERE BY, UH, WHERE MUNICIPAL COURT IS DOWN THE ROAD, UH, WHERE IT TURNS INTO REO AFTER THE HIGHWAY. UH, YOU CAN GET WITH THE OFFICER AFTER WE'RE [01:25:01] DONE HERE WITH THE HEARING AND OKAY. WORK ALL THAT OUT. MY, UH, WAS THERE ANYTHING ELSE? UH, MADAM CHAIRMAN, I HAVE A, I HAVE A QUESTION FOR LEGAL. UH, OKAY, GO AHEAD. SAVITA. IN YOUR OPINION, DOES THIS MEET THE REQUIREMENTS FOR A REPAIR ORDER IN 180 DAYS? ENGINEER? IT, IT WOULD MEET, UH, ALL THE REQUIREMENTS AND THEN IT'S UP TO THE BOARD'S DISCRETION. IF THE BOARD WANTS TO HAVE A, UH, BOND PROVIDED, UH, A PERFORMANCE BOND THAT, THAT'S AT THE DISCRETION OF THE BOARD. . THANK YOU. THIS IS FOR LEGAL, EVEN THOUGH THEY'LL BE PUT INTO THE, UH, VACANT BUILDING PROGRAM THAT STILL WILL NOT, UH, UH, OBSTRUCT THEIR WORK ON THE PROPERTY. CORRECT? I, UH, I CAN WITH THAT, UH, KATHY RODRIGUEZ, DEVELOPMENT SERVICES ADMINISTRATOR REGISTRATION WITH THE VACANT BUILDING PROGRAM, WE ENCOURAGE THEM TO DO WORK. IT WOULD NOT IMPEDE THEIR ABILITY TO PULL ANY PERMITS AND, UH, THEY TURN IN A PLAN OF ACTION WITH THE REGISTRATION PACKET. SO WE FOLLOW ALONG WITH THEIR TIMELINE AND WE MONITOR THEIR PROGRESS THROUGH THAT PLAN OF ACTION. OKAY. NOW THIS NO GO TO COUNCIL. IF WE GIVE THEM 180 DAYS EXAMPLE AND THEY'RE HAVING TROUBLE WITH ANY TYPE OF FINANCIAL OR EVEN PERMITS, THEY'RE NOW LOCKED INTO THAT CLOCK OF 180 DAYS, CORRECT? YES, IT WOULD, UH, PER THE BOARD'S ORDER REPAIRS WOULD NEED TO BE COMPLETED WITHIN THE 180 DAYS. BUT, UH, ALSO THE, UM, CODE ENFORCEMENT, THE DP INVESTIGATOR TOWN, UH, WOULD HAVE THE DISCRETION TO, UH, PROVIDE ADDITIONAL TIME IF SUBSTANTIAL COMPLIANCE HAS BEEN MET. 'CAUSE THEY MAY NOT BE ABLE TO GET IT. SO IF A RESET WAS ORDERED, THEY COULD STILL COMPLY WITH THE OTHER DOCUMENTATION AS FAR AS THE NO TRESPASSING AND THEY CAN OTHER THAN PERMITS BECAUSE THEY STILL HAVE TO DO THE OTHER PAPERWORK STILL THAT GOES WITH EVERYTHING ELSE. CORRECT. THAT'S STILL, THAT DOESN'T STOP THAT. CORRECT. UH, CAN THEY PULL PERMITS? CAN THEY PULL PERMITS? MM-HMM . IF IT'S A RESET, YEAH, BECAUSE USUALLY YOU, THEY'RE SHUT DOWN WHEN THEY COME HERE. SO CAN THAT BE OPENED? UH, YOUR HONOR, THE, THE CITY IS ABLE TO REMOVE THE HOLDS ON THE PERMIT. OKAY. OH, I REMEMBERED MY THIRD ITEM. UH, Y'ALL WILL NEED TO UPDATE OWNERSHIP INFORMATION ON THE, UH, BEXAR COUNTY APPRAISAL DISTRICT, UH, WEBSITE. UH, 'CAUSE THE TRANSFER OF DEED IS, IT'S NOT SHOWING AND IT STILL HAS THE PREVIOUS OWNER LISTED. IS THAT AS CLEAR AS MUD? I'M FAMILIAR. YEAH. KIND OF. YEAH. , WE, WE WOULD JUST ASK FOR NO BOND REQUIRED. WELL, WELL THERE'S A LOT. THAT'S WHY I SAID THERE'S A LOT OF OTHER THINGS THAT GO WITH THE STIPULATION. SO WE'RE TRYING TO RIGHT. NOT JUST EDUCATE YOU, BUT KIND OF HELP YOU OUT AS WELL. SURE. SO YOU DON'T GET INTO THE BIGGER AND NOTHING DOES GET DONE THEN. IT'S NO ENCOMPASSES, UM, ENCOMPASSES THE CODE IS TO BRING IT UP TO CODE FOR SURE. OKAY. AND THAT'S ALL WE WOULD LIKE TO SEE MOST PROPERTIES DONE. SO WITH THAT, UM, EVERYTHING ON THAT LIST, UH, LOOKS GOOD. AS FAR AS YOUR, YOUR PIECE, THE ONLY THING IS YOU GOT YOUR FINANCE THE DAYS AND WE CAN PROBABLY WORK AROUND A LOT OF THAT STUFF. SO, UM, IT'S NICE TO SEE PEOPLE TRYING TO GO IN THERE AND REHAB AND, AND, AND GIVE IT. SO WE APPRECIATE THAT VERY MUCH. THANK YOU GUYS. YES SIR. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. IS THERE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? JUST ONE MORE. YOU DIDN'T TALK ABOUT SECURING THE PROPERTIES. THIS PROPERTY SECURED DOWN. YES, IT'S SECURED. THERE WAS SOME BOARDS THAT HAD BEEN REMOVED, BUT WE WENT AND RE SECURED IT LAST WEEK. WE, UH, PROVIDED PICTURES OF RIGHT AFTER WE SECURED IT. AND LIKE I SAID, WE CUT THE GRASS LIKE ALL THAT RAIN. UM, SINCE WE PURCHASED IT, IT WAS JUST RAIN BACK TO BACK TO BACK, HAVE LAWN CA, LANDSCAPE, LANDSCAPE, COMPANY, AND LAWN CARE. SO KEEPING THE DR. MAINTAINED IS NOT GONNA BE AN ISSUE FOR US AT ALL. SUPER. [01:30:01] OKAY. THANK YOU. OKAY. THAT'S ALL OF OUR SPEAKERS. UM, I AM OPEN TO A MOTION, MADAM CHAIR, THE SPREAD ANSWER. I CAN MAKE A MOTION. GO AHEAD. CAN WE HAVE THE, THERE WE GO.

SO NOW YOU'LL GET WITH, UH, BOTH THE CODE OFFICER AND THE SAPD OFFICER, UM, TO DISCUSS YOUR NEXT STEPS. THANK YOU. OH, HELLO MIKE. UM, OUR NEXT CASE IS FOUR 10 ELKS DRIVE. OKAY. GOOD MORNING BOARD. GOOD MORNING FOR THE RECORD. MY NAME IS CRYSTAL TOWN DANGEROUS PREMISE OFFICER FOR THE CITY OF SAN ANTONIO'S DEVELOPMENT SERVICES DEPARTMENT. THE STRUCTURE BEING PRESENTED TODAY IS LOCATED AT FOUR 10 ELKS DRIVE WITH A RECOMMENDATION FOR DEMOLITION IN ACCORDANCE WITH CITY CODE ARTICLE EIGHT, CHAPTER SIX. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME FOUR 10 ELKS DRIVE IS BEING PRESENTED BEFORE THE BOARD. PLEASE NOTE ON MAY 19TH, 2026, A DANGEROUS ASSESSMENT RESPONSE TEAM INSPECTION WAS CONDUCTED. THE INSPECTION IS A COLLABORATED INSPECTION WITH VARIETY OF CITY DEPARTMENTS THAT INCLUDED THE SAN ANTONIO POLICE DEPARTMENT. THE LEGAL DESCRIPTION IS NCB 8 9 7 0 BLOCK 12 LOT NORTH 1 0 6 0.1 FEET OF 12 LOCATED IN CITY COUNCIL DISTRICT FIVE. THE OWNER ON RECORD IS FLORES EMI AND WF WITH A MAILING ADDRESS OF FOUR 10 A DRIVE, SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS 7 8 2 1 1. THE PROPERTY OWNER IS NOT PRESENT. DOES THE BOARD WISH TO CONTINUE? YES. OKAY. SAN ANTONIO POLICE OFFICER BRANDON GUILLEN IS HERE TO SPEAK. THE OFFICE OF HISTORIC PRESERVATION HAS CONFIRMED ON DECEMBER 9TH, 2025, THE PROPERTY IS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR HISTORIC DESIGNATION. THE FIRST INSPECTION REGARDING FOUR 10 ELKS DRIVE WAS CONDUCTED ON JULY 2ND, 2025. THE ORIGINAL NOTICE WAS MAILED ON JULY 3RD, 2025 AND THEIR CERTIFIED RECEIPT WAS NOT RETURNED ON AUGUST 18TH, 2025. A CONFERENCE MEETING WAS SCHEDULED, UH, BUT NO ONE ATTENDED ON MAY 27TH, 2026. THE NOTICE FOR THE BSB HEARING WAS POSTED AT FOUR 10 ELKS DRIVE ON MAY 26TH, 2026. THE NOTICE FOR THE BSB HEARING WAS MAILED TO EMILIO Z FLORES AND ZADA R FLORES. AND THE CERTIFIED RECEIPT HAS NOT BEEN RETURNED. ON MAY 19TH, 2026, AN ADMINISTRATIVE WARRANT WAS EXECUTED TO OBTAIN PHOTOGRAPHS. NO SCOPE OF WORK OR FINANCIAL PROOF OR LETTER OF CREDIT OR ENGINEER'S REPORT HAS BEEN PROVIDED. NO PERMITS HAVE BEEN OBTAINED FOR THE PROPERTY. A NOTICE TO VACATE WAS POSTED AT THE PROPERTY ON SEPTEMBER 10TH, 2025. AND THIS PROPERTY IS LOCATED WITHIN 1000 FEET OF MIDDLE SCHOOL. OKAY. THIS IS THE FRONT ELEVATION OF THE STRUCTURE. THERE IS A WORK ORDER IN PLACE TO HAVE THE CITY CLEAN THE PROPERTY AND SECURE IT. SO WE ARE CURRENTLY WORKING ON THAT. THE, UH, THE STRUCTURAL MEMBERS FOR THE PORCH ARE LEANING ON THE LEFT SIDE. THIS IS GOING TO BE THE RIGHT ELEVATION OF THE STRUCTURE. THE WOOD SIDING IS MISSING IN MULTIPLE AREAS, EXPOSING THE WOOD AND STRUCTURAL MEMBERS AND THE REMAINING SIDING DOES LACK WEATHER PROTECTION. HERE'S A CLOSER VIEW OF THAT SIDING MISSING, EXPOSING THOSE WOODEN STRUCTURAL MEMBERS. THIS IS THE REAR ELEVATION OF THE STRUCTURE. THERE IS GRAFFITI. UM, MULTIPLE AREAS OF THE SIDING ARE MISSING AND LACKS WEATHER PROTECTION. AND AGAIN, THE LARGE AMOUNT OF TRASH IS, UH, IN THE PROCESS OF BEING REMOVED BY THE CITY. HERE'S A CLOSER VIEW OF SIDING MISSING. THE METAL THAT YOU SEE IS ACTUALLY THE BATHTUB ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WALL. AND THIS IS GOING TO BE THE FRONT LEFT SIDE OF THE STRUCTURE. DUE TO THE, THE CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THE FENCE. UM, I'M NOT ABLE TO GET ANY FURTHER. SO THIS IS GOING INTO THE LEFT PORTION OF THE STRUCTURE. THERE ARE TWO DOORWAYS TO GET IN. HOWEVER, WITH ALL THE AMOUNT OF [01:40:01] TRASH AND DEBRIS THROUGHOUT THE STRUCTURE, YOU CANNOT ACCESS THE DOORWAYS. SO HERE IS A DOORWAY THAT IS BLOCKED BY ITEMS AND TRASH, WHICH POSES NOT ONLY A HAZARD TO THE OCCUPANTS, BUT THE FIRST RESPONDERS THAT DO NOT KNOW THE CONDITION OF THE PROPERTY. THIS IS GOING INTO THE BACK KITCHEN AREA THAT'S NOW BEEN MADE INTO A BEDROOM. THERE IS A LARGE AMOUNT OF TRASH AND DEBE DEBRIS. THE EXTERIOR DOOR IS NO LONGER EXISTENT. THEY NOW JUST HAVE A BLANKET COVERING THE DOOR AND THERE IS A LARGE HOLE UNDERNEATH THE KITCHEN SINK. THIS IS GOING INTO ANOTHER BEDROOM. THE FLOOR COVERING IS COMPLETELY MISSING, EXPOSING THAT SUBFLOOR THAT IS NOW ROTTED DUE TO THE TRAFFIC. AND ANOTHER DOOR THAT IS NOW LEANING. THE ONLY THING THAT IS HOLDING THAT DOOR UP IS THE AMOUNT OF ITEMS IN TRASH THAT WOULD ALSO LEAD YOU TO THE RIGHT PORTION OF THE STRUCTURE THAT IS NOT ACCESSIBLE. AND JUST HERE'S A DIFFERENT VIEW FROM THAT REAR DOORWAY SHOWING THE EXTENT OF THE TRASH AND OTHER ITEMS BLOCKING THE DOORWAY, THE CONDITION OF THE SUBFLOOR. AND THERE IS SHEET ROCK THAT IS DETACHED FROM THE CEILING AS WELL. THIS IS THE ONLY BATHROOM IN THE STRUCTURE, WHICH THERE IT IS NOT ACCESSIBLE. AND THERE IS NO WATER ON THE PROPERTY TO UTILIZE THE BATHROOM. AND THE SHEET ROCK IS MISSING IN THIS, IN THE BATHROOM, THE DECKING IS EXPOSED AND IT DOES HAVE WATER DAMAGE. SO NOW THIS IS GOING TO GO INTO THE RIGHT, UM, EXTERIOR DOOR. ON THE FRONT. THE SHEET ROCK DOES HAVE WATER DAMAGE. AND AGAIN, THE LARGE AMOUNT OF ITEMS BLOCKING THE WALKWAYS, WHICH POSE A HAZARD FOR NOT ONLY FIRST RESPONDERS, BUT THE OCCUPANTS AS WELL. HERE'S A CLOSER VIEW OF THAT WATER DAMAGE TO THE SHEET ROCK. AND IN ONE SECTION, THE SHEET ROCK HAS ALREADY DETACHED AND THEY PUT A PLASTIC. SO THIS IS WHERE THE WATER HEATER WAS. NOW THEY UTILIZE THAT AS A PORTA-POTTY SECTION. SO ON THE DAY OF THE DART A, UH, DRUGS WERE FOUND, UM, IN THIS VEHICLE. AND SO THE, UH, POLICE OFFICERS DID REMOVE THE VEHICLE THAT DAY. THE STRUCTURE LOCATED AT FOUR 10 ELKS DRIVE IS IN VIOLATION OF CITY CODE ARTICLE EIGHT, CHAPTER 6, 1 56 SUBSECTIONS 1, 2, 8, 11, 12, 15, 17, AND 18. AND OF WHICH ANY BUILDING OR STRUCTURE WHICH HAS ANY OR ALL OF THE CON CONDITIONS OR DEFECTS HEREINAFTER DESCRIBED SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE A DANGEROUS BUILDING IN A HAZARD TO PUBLIC HEALTH, SAFETY AND WELFARE. PROVIDED THAT SUCH CONDITIONS OF DEFECTS OF DILAPIDATION, SUB SCATTEREDNESS OR IN FITNESS FOR HUMAN HABITATION POSE A THREAT OR POTENTIAL THREAT TO LIFE, HEALTH, PROPERTY, OR HUMAN SAFETY STAFF RECOMMENDS DEMOLITION AND FOR THE PROPERTY TO BE VACATED. THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION OF FOUR 10 ELKS DRIVE. ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE CODE OFFICER? I HAVE ONE QUESTION. I NOTICED IN THE FIRST PICTURE THERE WERE KIDS TOYS. ARE THERE ANY KIDS AT THIS ADDRESS? NO, THERE ARE NO CHILDREN ON PROPERTY. THANK YOU. IS THERE ANYONE ON PROPERTY THERE? THERE ARE INDIVIDUALS STAYING AT THE PROPERTY.

THE PHOTOS THAT ARE BEING PRESENTED TODAY, UH, WERE TAKEN ON MAY 11TH, 2026 WITH AN ADDITIONAL PHOTO FROM OCTOBER 30TH, 2025. PARDON ME. THERE WE GO. GO. THIS FIRST PHOTO IS OF THE FRONT ELEVATION SHOWING A SINGLE STORY STRUCTURE IN A RESIDENTIAL ZONE. IT WAS BUILT IN 1913 WITH A PRN BEAM FOUNDATION. THE STRUCTURE HAS WOOD SIDING, CROSS GABLE METAL ROOF SYSTEM AND IS 1,368 SQUARE FEET. THIS STRUCTURE IS LOCATED WITHIN A THOUSAND FEET OF DOUGLAS ELEMENTARY AND DOUGLAS ACADEMY. THIS STRUCTURE IS CURRENTLY VACANT AND HAS HAD NO WATER SINCE MARCH 27TH, 2024. A FIRE OCCURRED AT THIS LOCATION ON FEBRUARY 7TH, 2024. THE EXTERIOR OF THE STRUCTURE HAS SMOKE DAMAGE, MISSING WOOD SIDING, AND LACKS WEATHER PROTECTION. THE SUPPORT POSTS ON THE FRONT PORCH ARE LISTING TO THE LEFT. THIS PHOTO IS OF THE RIGHT ELEVATION. THE WOOD SIDING IS MISSING AGAIN, LACKS WEATHER PROTECTION, AND YOU CAN SEE THE POSTS SUPPORTING THE ROOF OVER THE REAR POACH PORCH ARE LISTING TO THE LA I'M SORRY, TO THE RIGHT. THIS IS THE RIGHT AND REAR ELEVATION OF THE STRUCTURE. THE TRIM IS ROTTED AND THE PORCH POSTS ARE DETERIORATED WHERE THEY CONNECT TO THE BOTTOM. THE SIDING LACKS WEATHER PROTECTION. THE SIDING IS ALSO MISSING UNDER THE AIR CONDITIONER, EXPOSING THE WALL STU STUDS TO THE ELEMENTS. THE FASCIA BOARDS AT THE TOP CORNER ARE ROTTED. THE WINDOWS ARE BROKEN AND THE FOUNDATION SKIRTING IS BUCKLED. THIS IS A REAR PORTION OF THE LEFT ELEVATION DUE TO THE AMOUNT OF VEGETATION I HAD TO TAKE SEVERAL PHOTOS OF THIS ELEVATION, UH, FOR DIFFERENT ANGLES. THE SIDING HERE LACKS WEATHER PROTECTION, AND YOU CAN SEE THE SAGGING ROOF DECKING ABOVE THE SMALL WINDOW FROM THE SINGLE. YOU CAN SEE THE SAGGING ROOF DECKING BETTER AT THE EDGE AND DAMAGE TO THE SIDING AT THE REAR OF THE FRONT PORCH. THIS IS THE FRONT OF THE LEFT ELEVATION WHERE YOU CAN SEE THAT FLOORING ON THE FRONT PORCH IS ROTTED. YOU CAN SEE IT RIGHT THROUGH THE OPENING THERE. THE FRONT PORCH SUPPOSED, UH, SUPPORT POST IS LISTING TO THE LEFT AND THE TRIM IS MISSING. THE FLOORING ON THE FRONT PORCH IS WEATHER DAMAGED, DETERIORATED, AND UNSTABLE AS YOU WALK ACROSS IT. THE RISK OF FALLING THROUGH IS SIGNIFICANT. THE WOOD IS ROTTED AND DETERIORATED FROM EXPOSURE TO THE ELEMENTS, AND THAT HANDRAIL IS VERY LOOSE. THIS PHOTO IS FROM OCTOBER 30TH, 2025. UH, THE CONDITIONS REMAIN THE SAME. I JUST DIDN'T FEEL COMFORTABLE GETTING UP ON THE UM, PORCH AT THIS POINT. UM, THE FLOORING IS MISSING. THE BOARDS ARE ROTTED AND DETERIORATED. THE FLOOR JOISTS ARE EXPOSED TO THE ELEMENTS AND WATER DAMAGE. UH, IF YOU CAN SEE THAT SEAL BEAM THERE TO THE FRONT ELEVATION, IT IS DETERIORATED ON TOP. THIS IS A CLOSEUP OF THE FASCIA IN THE SOFFIT WHERE THEY ARE WATER DAMAGED AT THE REAR ELEVATION AND SEPARATING FROM THE ROOFING SYSTEM. AS YOU GO IN THE BACK PORCH, UH, THERE'S AN ENTRANCEWAY, UH, THROUGH THE REAR DOOR. THIS PHOTO IS LOOKING INTO THE STRUCTURE FROM THAT REAR ENTRANCE WHERE THE FIRE OCCURRED. THE, THE FIRE DAMAGE IS APPARENT ON THE WALLS AND THE CEILING. THE BOARDS ON THE WALLS ARE CHARRED AND MISSING ON THE LEFT SIDE. THE ELECTRICAL BOX ON THE KITCHEN WALL TO THE LEFT OF THAT DOOR IS FIRE DAMAGED AS WELL. LOOKING UP ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE KITCHEN, UH, YOU CAN SEE THE EXTENT TO WHICH THE FIRE DAMAGED THE CEILING, THE CEILING JOISTS AND THE RAFTERS. THE CEILING BOARDS ARE BURNED AWAY AND THE JOISTS ARE CHARRED. THE ROOF DECKING ON THE INSIDE [02:00:01] IS SMOKE DAMAGED. THIS IS WHERE THERE WAS PREVIOUSLY A HOLE THAT WENT THROUGH TO THE GRADE. THE HOLE HAS BEEN PATCHED UP WITH A PIECE OF PLYWOOD. UH, THE GRADE IS STILL VISIBLE WHERE THE WALL AND THE FLOOR MEET THERE ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THAT PHOTO, ALLOWING RODENTS AND PESTS TO ENTER THE STRUCTURE. IF YOU TURN AROUND FROM THAT, UH, POINT AND LOOK BACKWARDS TOWARDS THE, THE REAR ELEVATION, UH, WHERE WE CAME IN, YOU CAN SEE THE ADDITIONAL FIRE DAMAGE TO THE WALL BOARDS AND THE STUDS. THE WALL COVERING IS MOSTLY COLLAPSED. UM, CHARRED PIECES STILL REMAIN LOOKING THROUGH THAT DOOR AT THE REAR OF THE KITCHEN. UM, THIS LEADS TO A BEDROOM AND A BATHROOM. THE DOOR AND THE TRIM ARE CHARRED LEADING INTO WHAT APPEARS TO BE A LAUNDRY ROOM, UH, RIGHT BEFORE THE BEDROOM. THIS IS IN THAT ROOM. UH, AFTER YOU WALK THROUGH THE DOOR ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE, UH, THE CEILING AND WALLS ARE SMOKE DAMAGED. THE DRYWALL IS COLLAPSED. NATURAL LIGHT IS VISIBLE ABOUT TWO FEET UNDER THAT AIR CONDITIONER, UM, IS COMING THROUGH THE, THROUGH THE OUTSIDE WALLS. IF YOU WALKED, UH, STRAIGHTFORWARD THROUGH THAT KITCHEN. UH, THERE'S ANOTHER ROOM. AND, UH, IF YOU TURN AROUND AND LOOK, UH, THIS IS THE ADJOINING WALL, UH, WHERE THAT MOST OF THAT FIRE OCCURRED. UM, THIS IS THE LEFT CORNER. UM, THE WALLBOARDS HERE ARE CHARRED, WALL COVERING IS DAMAGED AND THE CEILING HAS SIGNIFICANT SMOKE DAMAGE. THIS IS LOOKING UP IN THE CENTER OF THAT ROOM CONNECTED TO THE KITCHEN. EVERY ROOM IN THIS STRUCTURE IS IN THE SAME CONDITION. THE, THE, UM, THE COVERING HAS, HAS FALLEN FROM THE ROOF. UM, THE BOARDS ARE WATER DAMAGED AND SEPARATING. THEY'RE ROTTED IN PLACES WITH THE FLASH FROM THE CAMERA OFF, YOU CAN SEE NATURAL LIGHT SHOWING THROUGH THE CEILING FROM THE ROOF AREA. THIS IS THE EXACT SAME PHOTO OR EXACT SAME POSITION. IF YOU TURN AROUND, GO AHEAD. IF YOU TURN AROUND AND LOOK UP TOWARDS THE KITCHEN, AGAIN, YOU CAN SEE NATURAL LIGHT COMING THROUGH THE CEILING BOARDS. THIS IS THE CEILING AND THE ROOM BETWEEN THE FRONT AND REAR ROOMS ON THE RIGHT ELEVATION. AGAIN, THEY SUFFERED SMOKE AND WATER DAMAGE TO THE DRYWALL, BOTH ON THE CEILING AND ON THE WALLS. YOU CAN SEE THE DRYWALL IS CRACKED AND SAGGING WITH THE INTERIOR WALL. STUDS BEING EXPOSED. THIS STRUCTURE SUFFERED A FIRE OVER TWO YEARS AGO AND HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED. UM, MS. JARMAN, THE REPRESENTATIVE FOR THE PROPERTY, UH, APPEARED BEFORE THE BOARD ON AUGUST 14TH, 2025, AND WAS GRANTED ADDITIONAL TIME TO PROVIDE DOCUMENTATION IN NOVEMBER, 2025. UH, SHE APPEARED AGAIN BEFORE THIS BOARD AND WAS ORDERED TO REPAIR THE STRUCTURE WITHIN 30 DAYS. THE REPAIR HAS STILL NOT HAPPENED IN FEBRUARY. UM, SHE DID PULL THOSE PERMITS AT THAT TIME. UH, WE GRANTED ADDITIONAL TIME, HOWEVER, UM, NOTHING MORE THAN THE, THE REPAIR TO THE FLOOR WHERE THAT HOLE WAS PATCHED HAS BEEN DONE. TO RECAP, THE STRUCTURE LOCATED AT 6 0 1 SOUTH HACKBERRY IS IN VIOLATION OF CITY CODE ARTICLE EIGHT, CHAPTER SIX DASH 1 56, SUBSECTIONS 2 8 1 11, 12 15, 17, AND 18, IN WHICH ANY BUILDING OR STRUCTURE WHICH HAS HAD ANY OR ALL OF THE CONDITIONS OR DEFECTS HEREIN AFTER 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 DILAPIDATIONS, SUBSTANDARD, OR UNFITNESS FOR HUMAN HABITATION POSE A THREAT OR POTENTIAL THREAT TO LIFE, HEALTH, PROPERTY OR HUMAN SAFETY STAFF RECOMMENDS REPAIR. THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION OF 6 0 1 SOUTH HACKBERRY. ARE THERE ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE CODE OFFICER? I, I HAVE A QUESTION ON THE REPAIR. UM, SUBSECTIONS 17 AND 18 AREN'T MARKED OFF ON THE PAPERWORK. THAT'S CORRECT. IT SHOULD NOT BE THERE BECAUSE THEY PATCHED THAT HOLE IN THE FLOOR AND I APOLOGIZE. I SHOULD HAVE CORRECTED THAT. OKAY. IT'S JUST THAT YOU SAID IT, BUT IT'S, IT ISN'T MARKED OFF, SO YEAH. [02:05:01] NOT ARY. I SHOULD NOT HAVE READ THAT. OKAY. YEAH, IT IS, THEY DID SECURE IT ENOUGH SO THAT THE, THE VAGRANTS WERE NOT GETTING INSIDE ANYMORE. SO JUST FOR THE RECORD, UM, THESE SUBSECTIONS ARE 1, 2, 5, 8, 11, 12, AND 15. CORRECT. THANK YOU. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? NO. MADAM CHAIR? YES. OFFICER SANTANA, DID YOU SAY, I JUST TURN, UH, DID YOU, DID YOU SAY THAT BUILDING PERMITS HAVE BEEN ISSUED? UH, THE BUILDING PERMIT FOR A REROOF AND UH, BUILDING REPAIR WERE ISSUED IN FEBRUARY. THANK YOU. BUT THEY'RE GETTING READY TO EXPIRE IN AUGUST? CORRECT. OKAY. AND IN THE PREVIOUS, UM, SESSION IN NOVEMBER, NO NUMBER FIVE WAS NOTED, BUT IN THIS ONE, FIVE IS NOTED. YEAH, IT DOES. I, I THAT IS, IT IS THERE NOW BECAUSE THAT FRONT PORCH IS DETERIORATING EVEN MORE SO, UH, THAN WHEN WE ORIGINALLY PRESENTED THE CASE. THIS IS FRED ANDERSON. YOU SAID THIS HAS BEEN, IT WAS RESET TWICE, BUT THEY WERE REPAIRING IT. YOU SAID THE REPAIRS WEREN'T DONE. THEY WERE NOT. SO IF IT WAS ALREADY ORDERED TO BE REPAIRED AND THE REPAIRS AREN'T DONE, WHY ARE YOU ORDERING A REPAIR? BECAUSE WE HAVE AN OWNER WHO HAS THE, THE FUNDS AND THE ABILITY TO DO IT. UM, THE, THE STRUCTURE IS REPAIRABLE. UM, SHE, SHE JUST HASN'T MOVED FORWARD. THAT, THAT'S WHY I'M ASKING IF THE REPAIRS HAVE ALREADY BEEN ORDERED AND THEY HAVEN'T BEEN DONE EXCEPT FOR A HOLE IN A FLOOR, I GUESS IT, IT'S MY HOPE THAT MAYBE, UH, THE BOARD WOULD, UM, UH, FIND A, A WAY TO CONVINCE MS. JARMIN THAT SHE NEEDED TO GET THIS DONE SO THAT THE STRUCTURE IS NOT DEMOLISHED. UH, THAT IS THE LAST THING THAT WE WANT. WHAT, UM, THOUGHT THAT THAT'S WHAT THE FIRST REPAIR ORDER WAS, IS MM-HMM . THAT WE WANT IT DONE. AND THE ONLY REPAIR THAT WAS DONE WAS A FLOOR AND THE REST HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED. AND WE'RE ORDERING AGAIN FOR THE FOURTH TIME IN FRONT OF THIS BOARD TO ORDER IT AGAIN TO BE REPAIRED. OH, IT WAS, IT'S NOT THE FOURTH TIME THOUGH. IT WAS RESET ONCE. WELL, AND WE ORDERED THE REPAIR ON THE SECOND ONE AND THIS IS, AND NOW IT'S COMING BACK FROM THAT. OKAY. THE SECOND ONE, WE ORDERED A REPAIR, SO IT'S ALREADY BEEN ORDERED A REPAIR. OKAY. HOLD ON. LEGAL. YES. UH, IT WAS ORDERED REPAIRED IN NOVEMBER, 2025. UH, REPAIRS WERE NOT MADE. HOWEVER, UH, REMEMBER WHEN THE DP INVESTIGATORS ARE PRESENTING BEFORE YOU, THEY GO BASED ON, UH, WHETHER THE STRUCTURE IS STILL ABLE TO BE REPAIRED, BUT THE BOARD ITSELF DECIDES WHETHER TO ALLOW, UH, TO ADDITIONAL TIME FOR REPAIR OR, UH, DEMOLITION. SO THAT'S, UH, UH, COMPLETELY UP TO THE BOARD'S DISCRETION. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? NO. THANK YOU. UM, WE'LL HAVE THE ORDER REPRESENTATIVE UP PLEASE. HELLO, MY NAME IS ANGELA JARMAN. I RESIDE THERE. AND YOUR ADDRESS PLEASE? 1 0 2 BAXTER AVENUE. I BELIEVE IT'S DISTRICT FOUR. THANK YOU. [02:10:03] OKAY. I, UM, AM UNDER CONTRACT AS OF YESTERDAY WITH THE CONTRACTOR, UH, TO DO THE REPAIRS TO, HE'S GONNA REPLACE THE, UM, CEILINGS AND THE JOISTS AND THE CEILINGS IN THE KITCHEN. UM, I ALREADY PAID HIM HALF OF THE, THE FEES. HE STARTS ON MONDAY. I THINK THEY GAVE YOU A COPY OF WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE. UH, THE REASON THAT THE REPAIRS WEREN'T DONE, I HAD A CONTRACTOR, UH, GO OUT THERE WHEN THEY WERE DOING THE INSPECTION FOR THE PERMITS. HE LIVES IN HAWAII, HALFTIME, AND HE LIVES HERE. HE WAS SUPPOSED TO COME BACK IN APRIL TO HELP ME DO THE REPAIRS AND HE NEVER RETURNED AND HE WON'T BE BACK UNTIL AUGUST. SO I END UP HAVING TO GET SOMEBODY ELSE. SO THAT'S BEEN THE PROBLEM, ME GETTING SOMEBODY TO ACTUALLY DO THE WORK. NOT THAT I DON'T WANNA DO IT, I'M READY TO DO IT. AND LIKE I SAID, I SECURED, UM, A CONTRACT WITH A CONTRACTOR YESTERDAY. SO ON THIS PAPER, UM, IT SAYS, UH, 1250 DOWN OR IT LOOKS LIKE 1250. YEAH, THAT WAS HALF OF IT DOWN. OKAY. WHY IS THERE A DATE? IT SAYS FOUR DASH, THERE'S NO DATE AND THEN DASH 26. LIKE, I DON'T KNOW WHY HE PUT THAT. I DON'T KNOW WHY. I DON'T EVEN, I DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE THAT. I DON'T KNOW WHY HE PUT THAT. OKAY. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? UH, MADAM CHAIR, UH, THE NOTES SAY YOU INTEND TO USE THIS PROPERTY, UH, FOR YOUR BUSINESS? POSSIBLY IF I DON'T LIVE THERE? YES. WHAT BUSINESS IS THAT? I'M A MASSAGE THERAPIST. THANK YOU. DID YOU GET A TIMELINE? I DIDN'T GET A SPECIFIC TIMELINE AS TO, TO HOW LONG, BECAUSE YOU'RE WITH THE DOCUMENTATION. WE'RE SUPPOSED TO, UH, YOU, YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO BRING IN A TIMELINE AS WELL WITH FINANCES, SCOPE OF WORK, AND A TIMELINE. AND HE DIDN'T GIVE YOU A TIMELINE WHEN IT WOULD BE DONE. HE STARTS MONDAY. DID HE? OH, AS FAR AS THAT, YES. HE SAID JUST A COUPLE OF DAYS FOR THAT, FOR THAT PORTION. AND THEN HE'S GONNA START IN THE HALLWAY AFTER THIS PROJECT. DID HE PULL PERMITS FOR THAT? UM, YOU HAVE A ROOF AND A YEAH, I HAVE FOUNDATION, CORRECT? YES. OKAY. SO YOU STILL NEED INTERIOR PERMITS? UM, THE, I HAVE TWO PERMITS. ONE IS FOR RESIDENTIAL. OKAY. AND INTERIOR WALLS AND REPLACING THE FLOOR AND THE KITCHEN, THE CABINETS AND THE WINDOWS. AND THEN I HAVE ONE FOR THE ROOF. OKAY. I THOUGHT SHE SAID FOUNDATION AND ROOF. THAT'S WHY I WAS SAYING YOU NEED NO, SO YOU HAVE INTERNAL OR, OR MA UH, WHAT THEY CALL, UH, MISCELLANEOUS AND THEN YOU HAVE YOUR ROOF. YEAH. AND, AND WHEN'S ELECTRICAL GONNA BE DONE? UH, WE HAVE SOMEBODY COMING OUT NEXT WEEKEND TO, UH, LOOK AT THE ELECTRICAL. SO THAT'S STILL UP IN THE AIR? ELECTRICAL AND PLUMBING, YES. ARE STILL? YES. WAIT, OKAY. YEAH. SO YOU REALLY DON'T HAVE A TIMELINE. SO THE REASON WHY I DIDN'T REPAIR THE PORCH IS BECAUSE THERE'S PLUMBING UNDER THERE AND I DIDN'T WANNA COVER IT UP. AND THEY, I HAD IT REPAIRED BEFORE THE FIRE. IT WAS BRAND NEW AND THEY TOOK ALL THE TUBING AND EVERYTHING OUT. SO THAT'S WHY THAT HOLE IS STILL THERE. AND THE HOLE WAS MADE THERE WHEN THEY DID THE REPAIR TO BEGIN WITH, TO, UH, I HAD EVERYTHING REDONE, ALL OF THE, THE, UH, PLUMBING REDONE AND THAT'S WHY THAT HOLE WAS THERE. AND THEY DIDN'T REPAIR IT AFTER THEY DID THE, THE REPAIR. SO IT STAYED LIKE THAT. AND THEN AFTER THE FIRE, THEY STARTED TAKING THINGS OFF THE HOUSE, STEALING STUFF. SO THEY STOLE ALL THE TUBING AND EVERYTHING. SO I WANTED TO LEAVE IT OPEN UNTIL I GET THAT FIXED. THE PLUMBING. SO NOT TO PUT YOU ON THE SPOT, BUT TO PUT YOU ON THE SPOT, WHEN ARE YOU LOOKING TO HAVE IT DONE? I WANNA HAVE IT DONE BY AUGUST. BY THE TIME THIS, UH, THE PERMITS ARE EXPIRING ABOUT 90 DAYS, RIGHT? ABOUT 60 DAYS OR SO. 69. ALRIGHT. OKAY. THANKS. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? THANK YOU. OKAY. WE DON'T HAVE ANY OTHER SPEAKERS. UM, OPEN TO A MOTION. [02:15:02] UH, MADAM CHAIR. I HAVE A MOTION. OKAY. I MOVE THAT THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 6 0 1 SOUTH HACKBERRY IS A PUBLIC ANCE NUISANCE PER CITY CODE CHAPTER SIX, ARTICLE EIGHT, SECTION SIX DASH 15 SEVEN, WHICH IS FEASIBLE TO BE REPAIRED AT THIS TIME AND IS IN VIOLATION OF CITY CODE CHAPTER SIX, ARTICLE EIGHT, SECTION SIX DASH 15 SIX SUB ARTICLES 1, 2, 5, 8, 11, 12, AND 15.

BECA LLC DOES NOT WISH TO INCUR ANY LIABILITY SHOULD THE PROPERTY BE CONDEMNED BY THE CITY AND BECA NOT HAVING ADEQUATE FINANCING TO RECTIFY THE MATTER BEFORE THE EXPIRATION OF 30 DAYS FROM TODAY. BIANCA AND LONE RANGER SHOULD HAVE THE PROPERTY PROSPECTS PROPERLY DETAILED. PLEASE PRESENT THESE ISSUES TO THE BOARD AND FEEL FREE TO CONTACT THIS OFFICE TO DISCUSS REGARDS THE LAW OFFICE OF JEAN R ROSAS. OKAY, IS THERE ANY QUESTIONS FOR THE CODE OFFICER? NO. OKAY. SORRY, CHAIR, WE DO HAVE ONE ADDITIONAL PUBLIC COMMENT TO READ. OKAY. YEAH, I JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT THE CODE OFFICER WAS DONE. SO YOU YEAH, YOU CAN THANK YOU SEAT. UM, LET'S GO AHEAD AND READ THE OTHER PUBLIC, UH, PUBLIC COMMENT EMAIL. YES. WE HAVE FROM ZACH LOFTON SENT WEDNESDAY, JUNE 10TH, 2026 AT 9:39 AM AND HE STATED THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO SPEAK WITH ME TODAY. I'M WRITING REGARDING CASE NUMBER 2 9 0 0 0 0 0 8 4 3 FOR THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 4 37 AARON PLACE, SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS 78 2 2 1. WE ARE THE LENDER CURRENTLY IN THE PROCESS OF FORECLOSING ON THIS PROPERTY. AT THIS TIME, WE DO NOT INTEND TO CONTEST THE PROPOSED DEMOLITION ORDER AND ARE IN AGREEMENT WITH THE MOTION. HOWEVER, WE WILL NEED TO COMPLETE THE FORECLOSURE PROCESS AND OBTAIN THE REQUIRED DEMOLITION PERMIT ACCORDINGLY. AND WE RESPECTFULLY REQUEST A 90 DAY EXTENSION TO COMPLY WITH THE ORDER. ADDITIONALLY, AS A SMALL PRIVATE LENDER, AND GIVEN THAT WE ARE SIGNIFICANTLY UPSIDE DOWN ON THIS ASSET, WE KINDLY ASK FOR CONSIDERATION REGARDING ANY FEES AND FINES ASSOCIATED WITH THE PROPERTY. IF POSSIBLE, PLEASE EMAIL THE RESULTS OF THE HEARING AT YOUR CONVENIENCE. I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE IT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND CONSIDERATION FROM LACK LOFT AND CFA FOUNDER AND CEO WITH THE LOAN RANGER CAP, UM, CAPITAL.COM. SO THE ATTORNEY IS ASKING FOR A 30 DAY, UH, RESET. THE CEO IS ASKING FOR A 90 DAY RESET, IS THAT THAT'S CORRECT. UH, NO. THE, UH, THE, UH, ATTORNEY REPRESENTING THE OWNER OF RECORD IS ASKING FOR A 30 DAY RESET, UH, TO DETERMINE, UH, THE STATUS OF THE LOAN IF IT WAS EVER FUNDED. THE LIEN HOLDER IS, UH, AGREEING TO THE RECOMMENDATION OF DEMOLITION, BUT IS ASKING FOR 90 DAYS TO COMPLETE IT. SO THE LIEN HOLDER IS THAT, WHAT'S THE NAME OF THAT COMPANY? CAN YOU PUT THAT LETTER BACK UP PLEASE? LONE STAR OR WHERE'D IT GO? WELL, THE LONE RANGER, I'M SORRY, LONE RANGER. YEAH, THAT IS, THAT'S THE OTHER COMPANY THAT, THAT, UH, OR THE, UH, THE FIRST ONE, BECKMAN, OR IT'S ON THAT FIRST LETTER AND IT'S NOT BECKMAN, IT'S SOMETHING ELSE. [02:35:03] I'M NOT EVEN GONNA CHOP, TRY TO PRONOUNCE THAT, CHOP THAT NAME UP. BUT THE LLC THERE, IT, THAT'S, THAT'S THE ORIGINAL OWNER OR THE, SO THIS LAWYER IS, IS FOR THIS COMPANY AND THE OTHER LETTER IS FOR THE LOAN COMPANY NOW, LONE STAR, WHATEVER IT IS. SO THEY'RE NOT EVEN IN COMMUNICATIONS WITH EACH OTHER? UH, ACTUALLY I THINK THE EMAIL FROM THE ATTORNEY, UH, COPIED THE, UH, LOAN RANGE LIEN HOLDER MM-HMM . AND THAT'S HOW THE LIEN HOLDER, UH, WAS ABLE TO RESPOND AND PROVIDE THEIR POSITION. OKAY. SO WE DON'T, WE DON'T KNOW IF THEY'VE GOT BACK AND HE SAYS, WELL, YOU WANT 90, BECAUSE HE SAID 30 HERE, THE OTHER GUY'S SAYING 90, THE OTHER GUY REPRESENTS LONG RANGER. THIS LAWYER IS REPRESENTING THE LLC, CORRECT? CORRECT. UH, THE LLC, UH, THE MAIN MEMBER OF THE LLC, UH, HAS WALKED AWAY FROM THE PROPERTY AND, UH, NO LONGER HAS THE FUNDING NOR THE DESIRE TO REPAIR. OKAY. AND THEN YOU, THEY, THEY HAVE 30 DAYS TO APPEAL AND THEN THEY'RE STILL AFTER THAT, LIKE IT TAKES A WHILE TO GET THE DEMOLITION. IT DOESN'T HAPPEN RIGHT AWAY. SO IF WE WERE TO ORDER A DEMO, UM, TODAY, THEY WOULD STILL HAVE TIME TO PERFORM THE DEMOLITION THEMSELVES BY GETTING A PERMIT AND HIRING PEOPLE TO DO IT, CORRECT? CORRECT. OKAY. AND IT DOESN'T SOUND LIKE THE LONG RANGER IS CLEAR ON THEIR LIABILITY IN THE LETTER, THAT'S WHY HE WAS ASKING FOR THE 90 DAYS. CORRECT. YOU KNOW, UH, I INTERPRETED, UH, THEIR EMAIL AS, UH, THEIR ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF THEIR, UH, LIABILITY OR RESPONSIBILITY. THEY'RE ASKING FOR THE 90 DAYS FOR, UH, THE FORECLOSURE PROCESS AND OBTAIN, UH, UH, GAIN BACK TITLE TO THE PROPERTY. SO THEY'RE THE RECORD OWNER AND THEN CAN OBTAIN THE PERMIT FOR DEMOLITION. THAT'S A LITTLE MORE MUDDIER, BUT THAT'S ALL RIGHT. BUT THEN OUR ORDER, THE ORDER STAYS WITH THE PROPERTY REGARDLESS OF WHO THE OWNER IS, REGARDLESS OF A FORECLOSURE OF PROCESS. CORRECT? CORRECT. OKAY. IS THERE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? OKAY, I'M OPEN FOR A MOTION. UH, MADAM CHAIR, GO AHEAD. I MOVE THAT THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 4 37 AARON STREET B RESET. OKAY. THE MOTION IS THAT THE PROPERTY LOCATED AT 4 3 7 7 AARON STREET BE RESET. IS THERE A SECOND LAST CALL? IS THERE A SECOND? I'LL SECOND. OKAY. OKAY. IS THERE, UH, ANY DISCUSSION? THIS IS JOEL LY. I WAS GONNA MOVE TO NOT SUPPORT THE MOTION. I THINK THAT WE SHOULD GO AHEAD AND ACT ON THIS. WE, WE KNOW EVERYTHING WE NEED TO DO. WE KNOW WHAT THE OWNER'S INTENTS OR THE FUTURE OWNER'S INTENTS ARE TO, TO DEMO. I SUGGEST THAT WE MOVE FORWARD WITH DEMOLITION. OKAY. I WILL NOT TAKE, I CAN'T TAKE ANY EMOTION MOTIONS, BUT THAT WAS THE DISCUSSION. UM, THE SUGGESTION, UH, WE'LL, WE'LL GO AHEAD AND DO A CALL. VOTE. KAYLA MIRANDA? NO. JOE ALI NAY. GEORGE GRIMES JR.
