Owner: Anna Linch and Frances Jones 1611 HWY 24 S Paris, TX 75462 <br />Present: Frances Jones <br />Don Wilson apologized to Frank Jones property owner of 1950 Hubbard for <br />the wrong date being posted on the Legal Notice and explained that we would <br />send him a letter to attend the next meeting of the Building and Standards <br />Commission. <br />4. Update from Code Enforcement <br />(1) Don Wilson explained that Holland Harper was in attendance to update <br />the Commission on the property owned by We Reit LLC TLLC at <br />266 -270 1St S.W.; Lot 3 -A, City Block 177 -A. Since there will be no <br />action taken on this the Commission will listen to the update. He will not <br />recuse himself since no action will be taken. <br />Holland Harper's update on the building was to leave the building <br />structurally sound with a structural engineer recommendation. They will <br />demo the inside but leave it stable. They have several projects ahead of <br />this one and will secure the building so outsiders cannot get into it. The <br />repair will come later and will be handled through the permit department. <br />(2) A spread sheet was in the Building and Standard packet. This is a list of <br />properties the committee has looked at and the progress on the property. <br />(3) Robert Talley included several pictures of downtown roof tops. He <br />explained that Dale Mayberry the Fire Inspector took the photos after a <br />rain to show that very little water is standing on the roof tops. <br />Don Wilson wanted to know if Robert was still going to start a systematic <br />check of the downtown buildings. Mr. Wilson would like to have proof we <br />have started the inspections. <br />5. Future agenda Items <br />(1.) All properties that were listed on this agenda need to be put on the next <br />regular scheduled meeting. <br />(2.) The Commission would like an updated report on how many buildings <br />downtown Robert has inspected and how many are leaking. <br />(3.) A system needs to be established on getting the downtown buildings <br />inspected. <br />(4.) On the report it needs to state if anyone refused to allow the city into the <br />property and what process was taken to get access to the building and how it was <br />handled. <br />Don Wilson wants to focus on saving buildings. He stated we have a back log of <br />demolitions. At this time we have not started demolitions since the ending of the <br />State Supreme Court decision in Stewart vs. Dallas. We have 20 -30 homes on the <br />list to demo. Johnny Norris stated if there are structures that can be saved they <br />
