Code Enforcement Officer Jason Manko indicated that this case was closed, and the property is now in compliance. Typically, he would ask for the finding of violation and a notice of do not repeat. However, when the property was found to be in violation of the building code there was a transfer of ownership just prior, that did not register on the property appraiser's website and was not brought to the attention until the notice of hearing was issued. Therefore, the notice was addressed to the wrong property owner and not to the current property owner. The case is being closed. Permits have been obtained, the property came into compliance and the case was closed. Code Enforcement Board Regular Meeting Minutes Date: December 01, 2021 Page 5 of 6 D.
