Council sets Aug. 3 hearing after staff documents code violations at 611 N. Spruce
Summary
City staff reported multiple code violations at 611 N Spruce, obtained judicial access after voluntary requests were denied, and the council set a public hearing for Aug. 3, 2026, to allow the owner to respond before remediation decisions.
Community Development Director Micah Scoggan told the council staff identified multiple code violations at 611 N Spruce that qualify the property as unfit for habitation. After repeated requests for voluntary access were denied, staff obtained a judicial warrant, entered the property and documented the violations.
Scoggan recommended, and the council approved by motion, a resolution setting a public hearing on Aug. 3, 2026, to satisfy notice requirements and give the property owner an opportunity to present their position. A subsequent resolution to establish a remediation timeline and method will follow the hearing.
Councilmember Naomi Leonard moved to approve the resolution setting the hearing; Councilmember Corey Dir seconded and the motion carried 5-0. The City Attorney reviewed the required notice process and the staff report noted staff had attempted voluntary access before seeking a warrant.
