Owner says permits are pending; magistrate gives extra time for unsafe garage at Munson Drive

Officer Hayes told the magistrate that the property at 117 Munson Drive had a partially constructed or deteriorated garage with only partial walls remaining and that the case was opened after a prior investigation. Staff recommended a $75 citation, an order to bring the property into compliance by Sept. 20, 2026 and a $100/day fine if uncorrected after that date.

Curtis Cunningham, who identified himself at the hearing as associated with 117 Munson Drive, said he was working with an architect, had submitted demolition and building permits (he said he received the demo permit late Friday) and requested additional time. Magistrate Knight said he would give the respondent until Sept. 30, 2026 to demo the portion at issue, directed the respondent to stay in contact with code enforcement and ordered the $75 citation to be upheld. "Keep in contact with code enforcement," the magistrate instructed.
