Summary

The Board of Public Works and Public Safety voted Feb. 4 to rescind an unsafe-building order for 513/515 E. Main Street after the owner and her mortgage representative presented evidence of cleanup and a repair plan; the board set no new enforcement date.

The Board of Public Works and Public Safety voted Feb. 4 to rescind an unsafe-building order for 513/515 E. Main Street after the property owner and a mortgage representative reported cleanup and promised repairs.

Barry Lewis, the city’s code enforcement officer, told the board that “the trash is cleaned up and the tarps on the roof were gone,” and recommended the board consider the changed conditions. Property owner Dannetta Cummins-Thornburg provided interior photographs and told the board that, “when the weather improves Bone‑Dry Roofing would be repairing her roof.” A representative of Freedom Mortgage requested additional time to allow those repairs to proceed. Mayor Todd Barton moved to rescind the order; Erin Corbin seconded and the motion passed.

The board did not record a follow-up inspection date or place additional conditions on the rescission during the meeting. The action removes the immediate unsafe‑building designation but does not record further enforcement steps in the minutes.

The meeting also included routine approvals and other agenda items; no separate vote or new timeline for the 513/515 property repair was specified before adjournment.
