(12-327) Public Hearing to Consider Collection of Delinquent Administrative Citation Fees, Vacant Building Monitoring Fees, Administrative Penalties and Abatement Costs Via the Property Tax Bills for Subject Properties. The Building Official gave a brief presentation. Mayor Gilmore requested the Building Official provide a general overview of the noticing and time line. The Building Official gave a brief review of the procedure. Mayor Gilmore inquired whether the amount is placed on the property tax, to which the Building Official responded in the affirmative. In response to Mayor Gilmore's inquiry whether the properties have been in the system for over a year, the Chief Building Official stated the properties have been in the system for more than a year; one has been in the system for 20 years. Councilmember Johnson stated including the time period in the staff report would be helpful. William Petzel, Attorney for 1710 Jay Street, provided a history of the property; requested Council not make a decision for 45 days in order to allow the property owner to file a demolition permit or apply for a variance; the City could place the lien on the property if the property owner does not do so in 45 days. Mayor Gilmore inquired about the time line to lien the property, to which the Chief Building Official responded July 1st. Mayor Gilmore stated granting 45 days would not allow an opportunity to lien the property until next year. The Chief Building Official noted the citations have been assessed regardless of whether or not a permit or variance is done in the future. Mr. Petzel stated the property owner is not objecting to the amount of the assessment, but objects to a lien being placed on the property.
