Public Hearing Regarding Condemnation of Hazardous Building Located at 4207 Central Avenue Firefighter Flermoen conducted on-site inspections of this structure as has the Assistant Building Inspector in response to complaints. Flermoen gave the Council photos of the property which reflected its present condition. He stated that there is no heated running water; a stove and refrigerator were absent on the initial inspection but were moved in by October 5, 1992; the heating system is non-functional and disconnected; the general condition of the exterior of the house and its foundation are in poor condition; plaster is missing from interior walls and ceilings due to roof leaks; windows and doors show rot and have glass missing; and the garage is dilapidated, rotten and without weather protection. Flermoen concluded that the house is not fit for human habitation and is a hazardous building. Although the house appears to be presently inhabited by a buyer of the property, it was indicated he intended to move by October 5, 1992. The City Attorney advised that the property lists Mr. & Mrs. Nestrud as owners of record. Both of these people are deceased and their son, Lloyd W. Nestrud, is representing the estate. All affected parties, the estate, Lloyd Nestrud and Robert Dufour, the person purchasing the property and residing there, have been properly notified of this public hearing. Lloyd Nestrud advised that he has a signed purchase agreement REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING OCTOBER 12, 1992 PAGE 4 with Robert Dufour for the property. He has received a down payment and he feels the ownership is still in question. He observed that if the structures were to be razed nothing could be built on the property. This is in a Limited Business District and the lot is only forty feet wide which would not meet the requirements for a building in that zone. Councilmember Nawrocki felt additional information should be gotten regarding the future of this property if the structure were razed. The Executive Director of the HRA was requested to gather additional information. The new owner of the property south of this parcel stated he is interested in purchasing the lot and would be willing to demolish the structure.

He noted that many youngsters use rollerblading seasonally to keep in shape for the hockey season. Discussion continued regarding the use of paved surfaces for the activities addressed in the ordinance.
