New Properties Declared as Nuisance by BNB at May Meeting

The Trenton Building and Nuisance Board met on May 22nd at 6 p.m to discuss both old and new business with the minutes of the last meeting in April approved.

Under declaration of nuisance, Code Enforcement officer Wes Barone reported that work on property at 1432 Main Street, owned by Barbara Morgans, is complete. Debris is still needed to be cleaned up on the property at 403 W. 13th Street owned by Max King, however Barone reported that the walls are down.

Under public hearing, on property at 302 E. 10th Street, owned by Lolo Tuiaki, Barone reported that little has been completed other than a mowed lawn. He said property at 824 Custer Street, owned by Sione Penitani, is currently still being worked on and the board agreed to grant a 30 day extension.

Under finding of fact, trash and an un-mowed lawn is still left uncompleted on property at 506 Jackson Street, owned by

Mele Tuiaki, and was declared by the board a certificate of dangerous building.

The board then moved on to new business. Five new properties, including 510 E. 17th Street, owned by Kim Allen; 2102 Parklane, owned by Fred and Patsy Griffin; 418 W. 13th Court, owned by Vickie Meservey; 308 S. Main, owned by Herbert and Ina Hudson; and 1615 Tindall Ave, owned by Phillip Milazzo were all declared as nuisances by the board.

A hospital shed had some tin blown over by recent winds and Lakeview property needs to be mowed with holes filled. Both properties are being contacted by Barone. 712 Normal was reported containing black trash bags found on the porch and the back porch is falling off.

Police Chief Ross gave his report and a motion by board member Mary Axtell was seconded by board member Gaylon McCorkle to adjourn the meeting at 6:28 p.m.
