There is currently evidence of mold but no testing has been done. Staff <br />recommends that the owner be in contact with City Engineer, Carl Littrell regarding a <br />disconnect from City sewers and possibly removing water more efficiently from the <br />property. Based on owners discussion with Carl, if this cannot be done, with the ongoing <br />water issues that may not be able to be resolved, staff would be inclined to recommend <br />approval of the proposed project because the structure has been so compromised and its <br />integrity will continue to deteriorate. <br />After a lengthy discussion between the homeowner and the Commissioners the <br />Homeowner signed a Waiver of Statutory Limit and on a motion by Todd Zeiger with a <br />second by Sandy Rossow COA#2010-0907A was Continued with a unanimous vote 7-0. <br />The Commissioners were then encouraged to meet with the property owner and tour the <br />site. <br />10 <br />
