County staff seeks contractors, legal clearances to remove pallets and proceed with demolition orders
Summary
Planning and county attorney staff reported ongoing difficulty finding contractors and disposal outlets for pallets at a property subject to enforcement orders; commissioners also discussed scheduling demolition of a property (referred to as Johnny’s) pending legal confirmation and coordination with the sheriff’s office.
Planning staff told commissioners that enforcement work at two properties continues to be delayed by contractor cancellations and limited disposal options. Mark, planning staff, said multiple local contractors had agreed to remove pallets and other material but repeatedly backed out; the county’s transfer station would not accept the pallets when brought in by local contractors, limiting disposal choices. Mark said he had identified two additional contractors and would contact them about removal and disposal options. Commissioners also discussed a separate demolition that had been bid previously (Luganbill was the awarded contractor). Clayton and legal staff said they would confirm whether the prior bid remains valid and indicated they would coordinate scheduling with the sheriff’s office, which will provide deputies during the demolition in accordance with Judge Kugelhorn’s order. The board directed staff to work with the county attorney (Pat Hess) and planning staff to finalize the next steps and return with a schedule; staff emphasized the need to resolve appeals and secure a disposal outlet before contractors will proceed.
