Summary

For case 24-000130 (South 6th Street) inspector Terry Dollar reported plans were provided and workers were cleaning the building; owner Brooks Armstrong entered a compliance agreement and the board accepted staff's recommendation to take no action while the agreement proceeds.

Terry Dollar, a property maintenance inspector for the city of Abilene, presented case 24-000130 for a building on South 6th Street and outlined multiple substandard code violations and a long history of inactive utilities. He told the board that the owner had "entered into a compliance agreement with the city to finish the work on the building," and that the city was waiting on a special survey and contractor estimates to permit repair work.

Owner Brooks Armstrong told the board he has removed charred material, expects an asbestos report by Friday, and described plans to clean and rehabilitate the second floor, install electrical fixtures and a mini-split HVAC unit, and replace handrails. After reviewing the compliance agreement and updates, the board voted to accept staff's recommendation to take no action and allow the compliance agreement to proceed; the motion passed after roll call (one abstention recorded for Mr. Wyatt).
