Commission approves two dilapidated-housing disposal applications with reduced landfill rate
Summary
The commission approved reduced-rate disposal (50% off tonnage) for two dilapidated-housing applications: Permit 47 for 419 West 4th Street and Permit 48 for 414 West 5th Street, noting some applications carry attachments signed by prior commissions and program rules on build-back and reimbursements.
The board approved two dilapidated-housing disposal program applications that provide a reduced landfill rate for demolition debris.
Commissioner 3 moved to approve application number 47 (419 West 4th) with a 50% tonnage reduction; the motion was seconded and carried by voice vote. The commission then approved application number 48 for 414 West 5th Street under the same program terms. Staff explained the reduced-rate program allows up to $1,500 reimbursement if the property is rebuilt within the program's timeframe and that the application form is largely unchanged from prior approvals except for tonnage and price updates.
Commissioners asked staff to confirm attachment completeness and to ensure that applicants understand build-back requirements and any available grant programs that may help with demolition costs. No controversy was recorded and both permits were approved.
