Board approves residency exemption allowing applicant to live at 5716 21st Avenue

The Offender Residency Board on July 9, 2026 approved a petition granting an exemption to residency restrictions that will allow an applicant to live at 5716 21st Avenue, Room 2.

Paul Lloyd opened the meeting and read attendance. After approving the minutes from the June 18, 2026 meeting by voice vote, the board heard the public hearing on the residency petition introduced in the record as the petition of "Barnell l Loi" (transcript text). The board solicited public comment and none was offered.

The applicant, addressed in the spoken record at times as "Mister Wolf" (the transcript contains inconsistent name references), told the board, "I just... I just moved there," and confirmed he is working. A probation and parole file check, as stated by board staff, showed no current treatment entry; the applicant said he was "on a waiting list" for treatment. When asked about property ownership, the applicant confirmed the unit belonged to Dr. Fogel (transcript alternately spells the name "Fogle"), and participants noted that Dr. Fogel had recently died.

A motion to grant the residency exemption for the applicant at 5716 21st Avenue, Room 2 was made and seconded; the board approved the motion by voice vote, with the chair recorded as voting "aye." Board staff said they would prepare paperwork for the applicant to finalize housing arrangements; the applicant replied, "Thank you, sir."

The board also noted that petitioner number 10, Benjamin Piat, did not appear. A committee member moved to adjourn at the close of the item.

The meeting record contains inconsistent spellings and names for the petitioner and for the property owner; the board's official files should be consulted for the authoritative spellings and petitioner case numbers.
