Summary

Staff reported permits for 1211 North Bayshore were in review but outstanding taxes needed payment and a floodplain permit remained unresolved; council granted a 90‑day extension and postponed condemnation action.

Council reviewed the status of 1211 North Bayshore and heard that permits had been submitted multiple times and were under review, but that outstanding taxes would need to be paid before permits can be released. Staff cited outstanding resubmittals and floodplain issues related to required floor vents and elevation certificates.

Contractors representing the owner said funding and crews were ready and that the project included replacement of siding and roof once permits cleared. Council voted to postpone and grant a 90‑day extension to allow the owner to clear taxes and finalize the floodplain permit; staff will report back if the outstanding items are resolved.
