Board orders 30 days to repair leaning carport post and entry door at 730 Division Street
Summary
Code enforcement found exterior structural maintenance violations at 730 Division Street (care of Edith Brown) and ordered the owner to make repairs within 30 days; the board authorized administrative fees and set a $25‑per‑day fine if not remedied.
City code enforcement presented photos and inspection findings on April 2 showing a leaning support post at the carport and a deteriorated front entry door at 730 Division Street, citing municipal code section 42‑1‑17 (exterior structure maintenance). Officer Crystal Rimes said the owner had communicated with staff but had not applied for permits and that the property was in violation for approximately 177 days. Staff asked the board to order compliance within 30 days, authorize administrative fees and impose a $50‑per‑day fine after the deadline.
Board members discussed the structural concern and the timeline of prior contacts. After a motion, a brief procedural confusion and a vote to reconsider, the board settled on an order finding the property in violation, granting 30 days to comply, authorizing administrative costs and imposing a $25 daily fine if the work is not completed by the deadline. The board noted that building/permit questions should be coordinated with the planning/building department and that staff will follow up with the owner for next steps.
The board recorded administrative costs in the case packet and closed the matter with the 30‑day compliance requirement.
