Mayor Hashmi closed the Task Force and thanked the members <br />for their service. <br />Code Enforcement Supervisor Robert Talley said the Building and Standards <br />Commission was back on track. Mr. Talley said the BSC Orders reflected that some structures <br />had been repaired and some of them had been demolished. Mr. Talley said they were looking <br />into the Task Force's recommendations by focusing more on repair instead of demolition. <br />Mayor Hashmi inquired about the number of properties identified as dilapidated structures and <br />how many had been corrected since the fall of the last building. Mr. Talley said five were <br />finished. Mayor Hashmi asked how many were initially identified and Mr. Talley replied that <br />eleven were identified in the downtown area. Mr. Talley said five were complete, three were in <br />progress and a report was being prepared on one. Mayor Hashmi asked how many more were on <br />the list that required correction. Mr. Talley said they had not covered the downtown area, <br />because they had brought back unfinished business from the August meeting, but were moving <br />forward.
