Preliminary research shows that while this is an older building, it would not qualify as a historic structure. One of the properties is located in the Gifford Neighborhood Plan area known as east Gifford. Demolition of unsafe structures on those sites, as proposed, will help meet the neighborhood plan objective of demolishing 10 unsafe structures in east Gifford by 2016. Also, in accordance with the neighborhood plan, the demolition project will include weed removal/control on the subject lots. FUNDING It is estimated that funding in the amount of $20,000 (4 x $5,000) will be needed for the demolition and removal of the unsafe structures on the four residential sites and that funding is available in the MSTU Fund/Reserve for Contingency. After demolition bids are received and a demolition contract is awarded, a budget amendment will need to be processed to move those funds to the MSTU/Road & Bridge/Other Contractual Services - Account 4 00421441-033490. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners declare the referenced structures unsafe and a nuisance and order the buildings demolished, with related debris removed from the property by a private vendor approved through standard bid procedures. Staff further recommends that the Board adopt the attached resolution authorizing the Building Official to report the county's demolition and debris removal cost for said structures to the County Attorney for the preparation and recording of a lien to be placed on the real property of the owners of the demolished unsafe structures for the purpose of recovering the County's demolition costs.
