Council removes property from condemnation list after inspection; owner represented during discussion
Summary
Following a written inspection report and a passed gas pressure test, the council voted to remove a property from the condemnation list; the property owner’s representative, Mindy Argo, spoke during the discussion.
City staff presented the inspection report for a property on Bridal (staff noted gas pressure testing had passed but gas and water service were not yet active). Staff recommended not to proceed further with condemnation at this time. Mindy Argo identified herself and said her husband owns the property and described options under consideration (mini splits vs. furnace and electric water heater options).
After questions about what makes a house 'livable' (minimum heating to maintain 70 degrees, need for bathroom/shower facilities), councilmember comments and staff input indicated the house met the city's minimum concerns. A councilmember moved to remove the property from the condemnation list; motion was seconded and passed by vote.
Next steps: staff will remove the property from the condemnation list and note any outstanding items in the file.
