DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:

This matter involves what may be described as a property that is in chronic nuisance condition. There have been code enforcement cases beginning six years ago in November 2018 (see attached back up materials). The property owner is deceased. The owner’s daughter is reportedly deceased. The record owner’s grandson is currently incarcerated in the County Jail on a number of serious charges. There is no evidence that he has any legal claim to this property. Squatters currently occupy the structure and are maintaining the property in a public nuisance condition. We request the Board approval to foreclose on outstanding liens.

None
