<div class="PlainText">Hi, neighbors. <br>
<br>
Hopefully someone else will be able to take up this issue. I am in the middle of several huge projects and don’t have the bandwidth.
<br>
<br>
I think the appropriate wheels are moving. <br>
<br>
Code Inspector Gonzales just met with our ENP/DPD officer Gregorich at the Brookport home. The door was answered by the “property manager” 😉, who said the “owner” was sick in bed upstairs with the flu. The “pm” said that they rent out rooms.
<br>
<br>
Gonzales and Gregorich looked all<br>
Around the home and the yard and Gonzales took many photos. He also told the “pm” that there are a number of code violations, some of them being:<br>
1. No business permit, which is req’d to rent rooms; <br>
2. The area is not zoned for this use;<br>
3. Trash <br>
4. Fence falling down<br>
And others the officer didn’t delineate to me. <br>
<br>
The Inspector is going to file a report with the City Attorney, who hopefully will open an investigation.
<br>
<br>
The Inspector gave his card and said he would be happy to speak with anyone from the neighborhood as to a status report, after 1 week to get things rolling.
<br>
<br>
I hope they will condemn the house and tear it down, as they did with a dallas house I saw on the news not too long ago.
<br>
<br>
As far as the criminal issues of theft (firewood) and trespassing, Officer Gregorich said they would need to be taken up with DPD by the aggrieved parties, if desired.
<br>
<br>
He also told me that DPD has had numerous calls re fighting at night at the residence.
<br>
<br>
Thanks so much to everyone for the heads up re these folks being in LJE. I will be much more cognizant of locking my doors and closing my back gate. I do feel very sorry for their plight, but also know that they are desperate financially and not thinking clearly.
<br>
<br>
I did not send the letter to Gay Willis, because I imagine her course of action would have been to get the Code Inspection folks involved. Which our wonderful ENP officer did for us within minutes!
<br>
<br>
Best regards to everyone. Liza<br>
