Council tables action on 3702 4th Street pending verification of owner notifications

Staff presented inspection reports, administrative warrants, photos and evidence of mailed notices for 3702 4th Street and advised the council the structure was not livable. Dr. Amira Bautista summarized the documentation and said there was a signature on the notice but it was not legible; she confirmed the notice was received at the address. "The structure is not livable," staff stated.

Council members questioned whether family members had been contacted and whether all statutory notifications (including certified mail to parties on the statutory list) had been completed. One councilmember abstained from a later vote because the last name on the notice matched theirs. The council instructed staff to verify notification to all required owners and tabled the matter for return when that verification is complete.
