Planning board advances property-maintenance code changes to public hearing for Aug. 20
Summary
Board reviewed staff redline to align the international property maintenance code with state penalties, retain a 10% administrative fee for abatement costs, and moved the ordinance to a public hearing scheduled for Aug. 20.
Planning staff presented a redline of changes to the international property maintenance code that align local penalty language with state statute, preserve a 10% administrative fee on abatement costs and remove redundant model-code language the staff said no longer maps cleanly to the updated model code.
Staff explained that the state statute sets a minimum fine of $100 and that the ordinance changes were edited to put penalty language directly into the local ordinance. The board voted to send the property maintenance code changes to a public hearing on Aug. 20.
