The following individuals voiced community concerns: William Yalm, Kelly King, Terri Johnson and David Peterman. At 7:20 P. M., CM Chastain resumed her place at the dais. CM Sanders supported Mrs. Johnson's comments and requested the City Manager to investigate and report on this matter. City Attorney Carvalho commented on Ms. Johnson's remarks and stated that Code Enforcement and Community Development Staff had worked diligently on this matter, citing the property owners a number of times and noted that when the office had been involved the property owners did do a little clean-up so that the court would give them another day. An additional challenge is that this area may be the home or habitat of an endangered species. In that event, the City completely loses its discretionary ability to go in and abate a nuisance. She offered to assist property owners, on her own time, with Small Claims Court actions under a private nuisance theory and the use of self-help. CM Sanders commented on Mr. Peterman's request for stop signs at Macy and Mill.
