Commission approves tree and inoperable vehicle removal at 1440 Millborough Circle; bid cited at $2,500
Summary
The commission authorized removal of an overhanging tree and multiple inoperable vehicles at 1440 Millborough Circle, citing a contractor bid of $2,500; the owner did not respond to posted notices, and staff will decide vehicle disposition (impound vs. scrap).
The East Ridge Housing Commission voted to authorize removal of a tree and multiple inoperable vehicles at 1440 Millborough Circle after staff presented a contractor estimate and said the property owner had not responded to posted notices.
Code enforcement said it obtained a single bid to remove the tree and the inoperable vehicles for $2,500. Staff advised the commission that some vehicles appear inoperable (flat tires, no tags) and that the owner did not respond to the posted notice on the property. Commissioners approved moving forward with removal, and staff said a cleanup crew will remove vehicles lacking tags or that appear inoperable.
Commissioners discussed where removed vehicles would be placed — city impound, scrap yard or other disposition — and staff said that decision would be finalized during implementation; the record shows this matter was not yet resolved at the July 9 meeting. Neighbors at the meeting urged prompt action and thanked code enforcement for recent progress on other nearby properties.
Staff said they would accompany the cleanup crew and document removals; the commission authorized the work to proceed under the previously discussed cleanup authorization.
