13.E. COMMISSIONER THOMAS S. LOWTHER - BOND FOR <br />MOVING HOMES (FLORIDA RIDGE HOUSE) <br />Commissioner Lowther referred to the house that was moved to Florida Ridge, and <br />that the Board has never made a motion to reinstate the performance bond to avoid a similar future <br />predicament. <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Lowther, <br />SECONDED by Commissioner Bowden, to direct staff to <br />initiate the process necessary for reinstatement of the <br />performance bond. <br />Scott Dillon, representing 3 Brothers and a Sister, (the entity that moved the house <br />to Florida Ridge) urged the Board not to reinstate the bond claiming that it will cut out the little guy <br />by making the process too expensive to relocate and rehabilitate existing housing stock for <br />affordable rentals. <br />Discussion ensued about the house, the problems encountered by the neighbors, the <br />difficulties the owners of the house have had, and when it would be completed and ready to lease. <br />The Chairman CALLED THE QUESTION and the motion <br />carried unanimously. <br />February 7, 2006 30 <br />
