Orleans council directs legal steps after alley nuisance and unsafe Maple Street property complaints
Summary
Council instructed the town attorney to send a removal notice over a junk camper shell reported in an alley on W. Jefferson and to pursue legal options for addressing an unsecured, window-broken property on N. Maple Street (the former Gunther Oberth property).
Council members reviewed multiple neighbor complaints about property maintenance and safety during the Feb. 19 meeting. The council directed Town Attorney John-Paul Isom to send a letter to the owner of a junk camper shell that had been sitting in the alley off W. Jefferson and asked Isom to pursue "whatever legal avenues were available" regarding the former Gunther Oberth property on N. Maple Street, which neighbors said had broken windows and was unsecured.
The transcript records the council’s direction to pursue removal and legal remedies; it does not record specific citations, deadlines, or the property owner's name. Further administrative action would be expected to follow the attorney's outreach.
