Date VTune 12 111995 Item No. 95-276
Item/Subject Directing the City Manager to take action relative to a
Property located at 59 Lincoln Street
Responsible Department: Code Enforcement Division
Commentary:
The structure located at 59 Lincoln Street has been declared unfit for
human habitation. The property is held by the Heirs of Esther Holmes.
Efforts by Carol Hatch, the last occupant of the building and one of the
heirs to obtain marketable title w ccessful. During the last five
years the property has deteriorated, utility bills went unpaid and tax
liens, levied by the city were allowed to mature.
Code Enforcement has expended sums of money to monitor and secure
e the
vacant property. The property can be rehabilitated. Staff has discussed
Possible options for disposition of the property including selling the
property by bid and rehabilitating the property with CDBG funds prior to
offering it for sale. If CDB5 funds were used disposition would have to
fallow the goals and objectives of the program. Under either scenario
staff believes the Sale of the property would generate money exceeding the
outstanding tax liens.
