Board members compare Brentwood case to other properties with large fines

Board members pressed staff for context about whether the Brentwood situation was being enforced consistently with other properties. A member said a visibly worse property on Covert Run had not received the same daily fines and questioned whether enforcement targeted particular neighborhoods.

William Hunt and other staff replied that multiple properties have active citations; staff noted one property on Covert Run has roughly $40,000 in fines and that other properties (51 Forest, 12 Allison Court) are receiving enforcement attention, with some cases pursued toward foreclosure. Staff said the nature of each case differs: some are vacant and dilapidated, others are active rehabs with contractors.
