Summary

City staff say Lehi Services has been cleaning out the former owner's possessions for about two weeks, removing enough material that interior rooms are now visible and ready for specification and rehabilitation planning.

During the walkthrough, Eric Lachanski said a contractor, Lehi Services, "has been cleaning this house out for the last 2 weeks or so," and that when the city first entered the home it was "completely filled with possessions" to the point rooms were not visible.

Lachanski described the cleanup as a necessary step before the city lists the property for proposals and said every room had been filled when first encountered. He emphasized the work has opened up interior details the city will use in bid specifications and project planning.
