Structures To Be Repaired: Mr. Jim King informed that notices were sent out January 1996 concerning property at 1200 Ridgeway. This building is a result of an aircraft incident which occurred in May 1995 . The building has been secured to prevent any unauthorized occupancy. 431 Item 9c cont 'd. Time and the nature of the collision, and the fire continue to have a detrimental effect on the building. It is in eminent danger of collapse at some point in the near future . We recommend extensive repairs . Kenneth Lee with Beal Bank, owners of Amber Falls Apartments, 1200 Ridgeway, stated that they intend to clean up the building. They have a construction maintenance agreement 4 with Behrens Builders and they have had a structural engineer look at it . The building is structurally sound and can be rebuilt, however, the problem is getting an environmental group here to monitor the abatement . We are committed to taking care of this issue . He commented that they had settled with the Air Force late last year but have not received the money. He requested that they be allowed to coordinate this issue with Mr. Jim King to show him their proposals . He expects that it will take approximately four months to get the apartments to rent rate status . Councilor Hawkins asked if thirty days would be enough time to draw a building permit with a time schedule to start the work. Mr. Lee replied that it would. Nathan Brown, 2403 9th Street, stated that they applied for a permit sixty days ago but could not get it until all the abatement and asbestos and regulations were cleared by the State and the City. Mayor asked for a briefing on the process prior to obtaining a permit . Mr. Jim King informed that the National Emissions Standards Act requires that on any four-plex or larger buildings before any renovation or rehabilitation is begun, a survey is performed, samples secured and analyzed for asbestos contained materials . This is a process that has been in effect for years . We will be happy to provide whatever information we have with the owners of the building. We have names of contractors who can take the samples and the labs that can analyze those materials . Once the lab reports are prepared a company can do an abatement process such as the one for the Library that is monitored by a consulting engineering company. All the proper forms and notifications are filed by that company and at the end of that process they would be clear to obtain a building permit and do whatever repairs they need to. Councilor Hawkins asked if sixty days would be a reasonable amount of time for them to abate it . Mr. Jim King responded that it would be . City Manager commented that Mr. Lee acknowledged that they have owned the building for a year now, and he believes that has been enough time for repairs to be done . Also, he hopes that Mr. Lee was not saying that now repairs would depend on the financial payment from the Air Force . Mr. Lee replied they had already decided to move forward and were waiting on the abatement process . 432 Item 9c cont ' d. Councilor Daniel suggested that they contact the contractor who is doing the abatement on the Library and negotiate a price with them. Mayor asked if there was any initial contact to inspect the building on the asbestos removal . Mr. Lee replied that they have one report, but have not had any contractor report to do the actual work. Councilor Hawkins asked if thirty days would be sufficient time for them to work out a plan and schedule with Mr. King. Mayor commented that it is in the best interest of the community to rehab that building and not have it there as a potential hazard to those citizens who live there . Council was in agreement that Mr. Lee be allowed thirty days to get with Mr. King and provide a plan and financing to get the abatement and construction done . Reza Vafaiyan, 2900 Kyle Cove, spoke on behalf of Amir Nadizadeh regarding 1604 Austin, Building A and Building B . Mr. Jim King recommended that these buildings be repaired. Sanitation and environmental concerns are the primary issue, although there are some electrical problems . Previous tenants brought to us complaints on plumbing and electrical problems . Buildings have been vacant since June 1996 . Some concerns with the plumbing is that some of the pop-off valves were off the water heaters . Mr. Vafaiyan confirmed that the three units had not been in use for years and have not been occupied. He informed that in 1992 they did bring the electrical wiring up to code . Building B has been boarded up and has not been rented since 1989 . He diverted from the issue at hand and began to discuss staff personalities . Mayor reminded Mr. Vafaiyan that we were here to discuss these structures and directed him to keep his comments on that issue . Mr. Vafaiyan continued to make comments about the staff and after numerous reminders from the Mayor for him to restrict his comments to the structures, she asked if he agrees to discussing a time table with Mr. King. He agreed that he would but that he would not get anywhere with Mr. King, he would rather work with the inspectors . Mayor informed him that he needed to respect the procedures of the City and go through the proper procedures . Mr. Dave Clark informed that he had met with Mr. Vafaiyan who was told that in order to get a permit he needed a licensed plumber and a licensed electrician, and that has not been accomplished. Mr. Vafaiyan proceeded to make accusations about the Staff and Mayor again reminded him to leave personalities out of this and direct his comments to the structures . Several Council members attempted to keep Mr. Vafaiyan on the issue at hand, but he continued to divert from the subject . Moved by Councilor Hawkins that he be allowed thirty days to come up with a written plan and a financial statement showing his ability to do this work, along with a licensed plumber and licensed electrician who will pull the building permits . 433 ILem 9c cont ' d. Councilor Hawkins was in favor of proceeding with the tax suit which is pending on this property. Motion seconded by Councilor Martin. City Manager stated that normal procedure is to take action after all items have been addressed. Council agreed to allow Mr. Vafaiyan thirty days to make a plan known and take positive steps toward the rehabilitation of these structures as given to the other property owners this morning. Staff was so directed. 3tructures To BeDemolished 3000 Cumberland (Rear) Mr. Jim King stated that 3000 Cumberland (Rear) had a major fire in June 1996 and has remained in that condition since then. It is secured and two prior notices have been issued on that property, 1989 and 1990 . We recommend this structure and the garage that is also in poor condition be demolished. Mayor commented that sufficient notices have been given over a period of 6-G% years on both buildings to allow ample time for repairs . Mr. King confirmed that and stated that registered notices have been sent and they have not had any indications of repairs or applications for permits . We have had no response to the notices from the owners . Mayor directed Mr. Vafaiyan to confine his remarks to any attempts that have been made to repair this building and leave out any personal references to the staff . Mr. Vafaiyan began by saying that the staff is not treating him fair. Councilor Hawkins told him that he had been instructed to address the structures at hand and not refer to the staff and whether he has been treated fairly or not . Mr. Vafaiyan' s remarks continued regarding the staff and how they had treated him. Councilor Hawkins informed him that he could address that issue during public comments . Mayor instructed Mr. Vafaiyan to adhere to the question at hand and if he does not he will be out of order and if he persists he will be asked to remove himself from the chambers . Mr. Vafaiyan continued to make remarks regarding the staff . Mayor and several Council members attempted to keep Mr. Vafaiyan' s remarks to the issue at hand, but he continued to make personal remarks regarding the staff . Councilor Hawkins stated that the garage should be demolished. He mentioned that legal was checking single-family zoning and the question of whether or not a building which has ` been damaged up to a certain percentage can be rebuilt as a residence . At this point, Council returned to structures to be repaired. Structures to BeRepaired City Clerk was asked to interpret for Mr. Rafael Ortiz . City Clerk informed Council that Mr. Ortiz had requested to 434 Item 9c cont ' d. speak on his behalf and, if needed, to ask the City Clerk for interpreting assistance . Mr. Jim King informed that the building at 2313 Yale had a structure fire in June 1996 . Notice was sent and response was received from the owner, but no repairs have been made . Rafael Ortiz, 208 Homes, owner of 2313 Yale, stated that because of divorce proceedings and the uncertainty of who was going to be awarded the house, he had not done work on it until the divorce was granted. He has done some cleanup and plans to complete the cleanup and to repair it . He requested additional time to complete the work. Mr. King stated that if Mr. Ortiz can come in within the next thirty days and provide the accurate information that is needed, he can be approved for a building permit . This permit would give him up to six months, however, if he does not take any action, after six months that permit will become void. City Clerk interpreted this information to Mr. Ortiz and he acknowledged understanding these instructions . Councilor Hawkins asked Mrs . Catherine Fitch, Housing Development Administrator, about finance housing programs available to assist Mr. Ortiz . She replied that there were if he was the owner-occupant of the house . City Clerk advised Mr. Ortiz of this option. Council instructed Mr. Ortiz to get with Mr. King within thirty days and present a plan and financing for the repairs of that structure . Councilor Hawkins asked about the status of those structures which were not addressed. Mr. King replied that structures on the repair list with no permits or applications within the next thirty days would be subject to demolition. They will be notified by publication and registered or certified mail of today' s proceedings . Structures To Be Demolished Council returned to the structure located at 3000 Cumberland (Rear) and garage . Mr. King informed that this structure had repairs done prior to the fire but there have not been any since the fire . Mayor asked if those repairs were adequate enough for the structure to be inhabitable . Mr. King responded that it was and it had been occupied prior to and up to the fire . It needs major repairs or demolition. Mayor stated that according to the City Attorney the zoning of this area is a single family, and this structure cannot undergo the repairs necessary to keep it in compliance with that zoning. Councilor Hawkins added that it cannot be expanded depending on the extent of the damage . Mr. King informed that they measured in accordance with the Building Code and damage exceeds 50% of the current market value of that building and is in the category of not feasible to rebuild. Councilor Hawkins commented that a permit should not have been issued to Mr. Vafaiyan since the structure has 50% damage, however, he does have one that is good until the 29t' of this month. Mr. King 435 Item 9c cont ' d. stated that if it is six months old and no repairs have been made that permit becomes invalid. No work has been done; it has only been secured. Councilor Hawkins asked if his permit is invalid. Mr. King replied that if it is six months old, it is . Mayor stated that the date of the permit was February 29, 1996 which is well beyond the six months . Mayor asked Mr. Vafaiyan if he had made any attempts prior to the 29`h of August, 1996 to make any repairs . Mr. Vafaiyan gave a history of this structure but did not address the question at hand. After much discussion and numerous directives from the Mayor to Mr. Vafaiyan and his refusal to follow instructions, he was called out of order by the Mayor and asked to remove himself from the Council Chambers .

Also, if we could keep what we say we are going to do in our executive sessions and keep those agreements and be of one accord. We ought to be sure that we do not say anything to hurt feelings or cause us not to be able to relate to one another in a friendly term. Councilor Thompson encouraged that the Washington School be something that we look at as a facility to use in the future for training purposes .

We are running a very up-to-date, public relations conscience club house . We are going to have some problems with the greens in the infestation of crab grass and weeds . There are still some operational glitches such as the need to bring the pro-shop to a satisfactory inventory. We have some situations to look at regarding the golf carts and are in the process of trying to get our alcohol license . Plays seem to be up and I think that there is a strong public recognition that we can have a good golf course but it is going to take people to play it, take care of it and to help us through this transition period. He informed that in the future they will be bringing to the Council a lease- purchase agreement to fill in the equipment they do not have .
