Paul Denney asked to pull 2A for further discussion. Robert Talley made report to the
commission. Mr. Talley stated we get a lot of complaints regarding this property. It was
our understanding when Kevin Kear bought this house he was going to restore it and no
repairs have been completed to date. Mr. Talley went thru the power point with
commissioners reviewing the existing damage to the structure. Mr. Talley further stated
he has no contact with the property owner, Kevin Kear. Paul Denney would like to pull
the Baldwin House and contact Mr. Kear. Mr. Denney further stated he believes the
property has been sold recently.
Commissioner Cox asked to pull 2O for further discussion. Mr. Talley reviewed the
power point with commissioners, stating Ms. Camster the owner has a lot of property and
is having difficulty maintaining them. Mr. Talley further stated that there is a large hole
in the roof and several broken windows which is allowing rain to come in and cause
further damage.
Motion was made by Paul Denney, seconded by Douglas Cox to send all structures
except for item 2A to the Building and Standards Commission, since they cannot be
rehabilitated nor do they have significant historical value. Motion carried 6 -0.
3. Future agenda items. Joint meeting between HPC and BSC. Report from Robert Talley
regarding historic structures with code issues.
4. Meeting adjourned at 12:24 p.m.
