Summary

The Public Safety Council Committee forwarded Resolution 25‑16 — to condemn property at 120 West Woodrow Street — to the full City Council after city staff reported no permits and that the owner has ceased contact with enforcement staff.

The Jonesboro Public Safety Council Committee voted to forward Resolution 25‑16, a measure to condemn property at 120 West Woodrow Street, to the full City Council for action.

During the presentation of the item, City staff (identified in the transcript as Speaker 2) told the committee, “There’s been no change at the property. No permits have been pulled at this time. The owner has stopped having any contact with David Cooley who handles these.” Following that update, a committee member moved to forward the resolution to the full City Council; the motion was seconded and carried by voice vote.

What happens next: Forwarding the resolution places it on a future full City Council agenda. The committee did not itself condemn the property; only the full council can take the final legal action on a condemnation.

Background and context: The transcript includes no further documentation (permits, inspection reports, or owner statements) regarding the condition of the property or the underlying code violations prompting the condemnation resolution. City staff indicated the case handler is David Cooley.
