COMMISSIONER DEESON ASKED HIM HOW LONG IT HAS BEEN SINCE SOMEONE HAS LIVED IN THE MOTEL OR HOW LONG IT HAS BEEN SINCE ANYONE RENTED FROM HIM. DR. FENNER STATED THAT HE LIVES THERE RIGHT NOW, BUT THE - PROPERTY HAS NOT BEEN LEASED SINCE LAST SEPTEMBER. HE CONTINUED THAT HE FELT THEY WERE STOPPED FROM REMOVING WHAT HE CONSIDERED HAZARDOUS DAMAGE TO THE BUILDINGS. HE NOTED THE SECOND STORY WAS COMPLETELY DESTROYED AND THEY REMOVED IT; PORCHES THAT WERE DESTROYED WERE REMOVED, AND REPAIRS TO THE ROOFS OF BUILDINGS 1 AND Z WERE STARTED WITHOUT A PERMIT BECAUSE HE WAS TOLD THIS WAS NOT REQUIRED TO REPAIR HURRICANE DAMAGE. HE CONTINUED THAT WHEN HE HEARD ABOUT THE PERMIT HE CALLED HIS LAWYER, WHO WENT TO SEE ZONING DIRECTOR WALKER, AT WHICH TIME THEY WERE INFORMED THE PROPERTY WAS CONDEMNED AND WERE GIVEN COPIES OF CORRESPONDENCE THAT HE WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE RECEIVED. DR. FENNER CLAIMED THAT THE LETTER IN REGARD TO CONDEMNATION WAS WRITTEN TO THE ELECTRICAL DEPARTMENT, NOT TO HIS NAME, AND THE ELECTRICAL DEPARTMENT PASSED ON THE INFORMATION THAT THE PROPERTY WAS CONDEMNED. HE STATED THAT THIS IS THE FIRST TIME HE HAS BEEN ASKED ANYTHING ABOUT THE PROPERTY.

COMMISSIONER WODTKE STATED THAT HIS MOTION IS INTENDED TO INCLUDE ALL ITEMS VERIFIED BY THE BUILDING DEPARTMENT AS HAZARDOUS. 55 MPS 1980
