Abatement Appeals Board grants continuance for 1743 Twelfth Avenue appeal
Summary
The Abatement Appeals Board granted a continuance for Case 67521743 (1743 Twelfth Avenue) after the department and a neighbor’s attorney said a pending arbitration could resolve the matter; the board approved the continuance following public comment that two months should suffice for an arbitrator’s decision.
The Abatement Appeals Board on May 16, 2012, voted to continue an abatement appeal involving 1743 Twelfth Avenue (Case 67521743) to allow a pending arbitration to run its course.
Board staff identified the case and the owner of record and appellant as Ella Dobrowski, with correspondence coming via Heather Wallnick. John Hinshen, speaking for the department, told the board that the parties were "under the court situation" and that "if they get 1 final continuance, it may resolve the matter," and added that the department "will be okay with that."
A board member moved to continue the item and another seconded the motion. Before voting, Andreas Becker, an attorney for nearby resident James Wong, addressed the board and said he supported the continuance requested by Heather Wallnick, adding, "Hoping that, 2 months should be sufficient for the arbitrator to make and give his decision." The board then voted in favor of the continuance and the motion was granted.
The transcript does not name the motion’s mover or seconder. The department expressed no objection to the continuance; a neighbor’s attorney asked the board to allow two months for arbitration. The board took no other action on the case at this meeting.
The appeal will be continued pending the arbitrator’s decision; the transcript does not specify a new hearing date or any follow-up deadlines.
