Council continues abatement proceedings for 119-121 N. Meridian St. to Aug. 6
Summary
The Greentown Town Council agreed July 2 to continue abatement proceedings for 119-121 N. Meridian St. to Aug. 6 after the property owner’s attorney requested more time to assemble contractor estimates and a remediation plan; the council emphasized scheduling over cost concerns.
President Scott Deyoe presided as the Greentown Town Council on July 2, 2024, and the council voted to continue abatement proceedings for 119-121 N. Meridian St. to the Aug. 6 Town Council meeting.
T.J. Rethlake, identified in the record as the attorney for Mr. Hinesley, told the council that Mr. Hinesley is "actively working on getting estimates and is waiting for responses back from contractors and also looking into financial options on the upcoming work in securing the building." Rethlake asked the council for additional time to complete the remediation plan the council requested at its May 21 meeting.
President Scott Deyoe said the council's primary concern is the schedule for completing the remediation work rather than the cost. After discussion, James Skinner moved to continue the abatement matter until Aug. 6; Mark Lantz seconded the motion and the motion carried.
The council requested a detailed remediation plan from Mr. Hinesley to be provided before the Aug. 6 meeting. No vote tally was recorded in the transcript beyond the motion being carried. The council record does not specify required scope or cost estimates in detail in this segment; those details are expected in the remediation plan.
