[StBernard] blighted, grass violations

[Westley Annis]

Deborah,
 
the house is awaiting FEMA release.  If there is a way to get the contact information of the owner and have a Right of Entry for demolition signed, it could free the house as a voluntary demo.  I will be glad to contact the owner if you can get the info.
 
Also, i really am coming by in the a.m. to get the by-laws for the civic group.
 
God bless,
craig

Craig, the house behind mine is ungutted, overgrown with weeds, and been
condemned to demolition since Nov 2006 by the council. It has a work order
no and red x sticker on it already. It is in the Murphy oil spill zone, but
now the class action case is over.  The owner moved away right after the
storm and wasn't a good neighbor before the storm so it was no surprise he
walked away to a new home on the Northshore with no thought or care for the
rest of us dealing with the snakes and rats, eventhough this house is
surrounded by restored homes with families. What could possible be stopping
this house from being demolished now?  It's on the parish condemned list and
grass violation list.  The house adjacent to this was demolished in Dec.
2006, but not this one. What can we neighbors who have returned, do about
this? No sense wasting our time contacting the parish admin. unless the
parish has the money to demo it and the legal right to do so. Appreciate
your advice. ddk
