Summary

The owner of 78 Rose Avenue said he would apply for permitting but had not yet done so; council extended the August 5 repair/demolition deadline by 30 days to allow time to show progress if a permit is filed.

Staff updated the council on a dangerous-building order issued August 5 for 78 Rose Avenue and told members the property owner indicated he planned to submit permit paperwork; Johnson County handles permitting and inspections. Councilors expressed skepticism that work could be completed in the original 90-day window and debated a reasonable extension period.

A motion to extend the deadline by 30 days passed by voice vote, with council asking staff to watch for a Johnson County permit application and to report progress. One councilor said the extension was conditional: the city will monitor whether a permit is actually filed and whether visible progress occurs within the 30-day extension.
