The Town of Ridgeway Planning Board reviewed a compiled draft of a local law addressing unsafe structures at its Aug. 7 meeting and voted to send the draft back to the code enforcement officer with suggested edits.
Jason Raduns, the town’s code enforcement officer, presented a copy of a compiled local law on unsafe structures drawn from several samples provided by the town attorney. Board members noted that the town’s unsafe-structures law has not been updated since the 1980s and discussed specific revisions and clarifications they would like to see incorporated into a new local law.
Following discussion, Tom Kline moved to return the compiled draft to code enforcement with the board’s suggestions; Tim Elliott seconded the motion. The vote was unanimous. The minutes do not enumerate the specific editorial changes the board requested; they record only that the board provided suggestions and directed the draft back to code enforcement for further work.
