SUBJECT: Buildings & Standards Report: 2/20/2012 — 2/18/2013
DATE: March 5, 2013
BACKGROIJND: Due to a ruling from the Texas Supreme Court concerning Stewart vs. Dallas,
Buildings & Standards Commission meetings were put on hold from August of 2011 to February
of 2012. After the Texas Supreme Court amended their initial ruling, the Buildings & Standards
Commission resumed regular meetings on February 20, 2012. Since that time, the City Council
has allocated $400,000.00 of additional monies to the demolition budget. The Buildings &
Standards Commission has currently placed Orders on approximately 174 structures. There have
been 49 structures demolished totaling $133,859.48, averaging out to be $2,731.83 per structure.
In addition, 76 structures are awaiting service removals or demolition. Using the average of
$2,731.83 per structure, the additiona176 structures would cost $207,690.08 for a combined total
of $341,478.56.
STATUS OF ISSUE: The Buildings & Standards Commission meets on the 3`a Monday of each
month and continues to review substandard structures.
