Resident alleges Community Development Block Grant repairs left home unsecured and incomplete; city records complaint
Summary
At the May 11 meeting a Henderson resident, Beverly Overby, told councilors that CDBG-funded renovations were left incomplete, that Path Construction left her home unsecured resulting in three burglaries, and that she has received only partial reimbursement and months of unreturned communications.
During the public comment period, Henderson resident Beverly Overby described prolonged problems after a Community Development Block Grant-funded renovation. Overby said she was relocated to a temporary apartment with the expectation housing and utility costs would be reimbursed, but she has received only partial repayment and has not received responses about the remaining balance.
Overby further alleged that the contractor, Path Construction, left her home unsecured during renovations, which she says resulted in three burglaries. She reported filing police reports and providing documentation of losses but said she has waited more than a year for resolution and seven months without replies to calls or emails.
The minutes record the complaint but do not record a substantive response or immediate follow-up action from city staff during the meeting. Council members did not record a reply on the public record at the May 11 session.
