Board flags 524 Canal Street for inspection after complaints about unsafe porch and exterior
Summary
Complaints about a dilapidated house at 524 Canal Street prompted the board to request a building inspection and correction notices, with a suggested late-spring repair deadline; the board noted the porch posed a collapse risk.
Board members raised complaints about the condition of the property at 524 Canal Street, citing missing garage doors, a failing front porch and general exterior disrepair. The board directed that the building inspector examine the property and issue correction notices; the owner would be contacted by Chief Small, who identified the owner by name in discussion. A late-spring deadline for repairs was suggested by members.
Board members said the porch was at risk of collapse if children walked on it and agreed that correction notices and inspection were the appropriate next step. No formal ordinance motion was recorded beyond the decision to inspect and notify the owner.
