Enforcement Proceeding
•
2630 Tangley abbreviated timeline
1. The City of West University Place's Code Enforcement Division received the
initial complaint on 2630 Tangley on 04/27/2002. An inspection of the property, a
search of H.C.A.D. and city tax records, and beginning attempts at establishing
contact with the property owner, Constance R. Colley, are begun. Contact is
finally established with the property owner on 05/28/2002 at 0903 hrs. via phone
conversation. The property owner is notified of the violations present and actions
necessary to bring the structure into compliance. Several trips are made to the
property owner's second H.C.A.D. listed address, 318 Knipp Road, to serve
municipal citations for lack of action on the conditions of the premises with
negative results. A certified letter is sent on 05/06/2003 to again notify the
property owner of the condition of the property and requesting that corrective
action be taken on the property.
2. An administrative search warrant is executed on 05/11/2004, with the
photographic evidence taken being presented to the City of West University
Place's Building& Standards Commission at their meeting on 08/05/2004. The
property owner, through her attorney, agrees to demolish the house and all
appurtenant structures within one hundred and twenty(120) days of the meeting.
3. The property owner, Ms. Constance R. Colley, arrives at 3826 Amherst on
01/03/2005 with a faxed demolition contract from Cherry Demolition signed and
dated on 12/30/2004. No time frame is given on the contract for the demolition,
and a survey of the property, along with a completed tree disposition have not
been submitted to the city for review as of 01/04/2005, 1030 hrs. The property,
as of 01/04/2005, has not been secured, repaired, or demolished.

Subject: 2630 Tangley-staff recommendation
Bryant, \
Staff is requesting that the homeowner of 2630 Tangley, Constance R. Colley, be given ten (10) calendar days from
day of the meeting to have the house and all appurtenant structures demolished, all debris removed, and the lot grade for
drainage, or be levied with daily fines to encourage compliance with the B.S.C. directive from the August 5, 2004 meeting.
As you are aware from your packet that was delivered yesterday, Ms. Colley has a signed contract from Cherry Demolition
dated 12/30/2004. Since she has a contract, we would like to give her the opportunity to follow through and save her(and
the city) the abatement costs and all other applicable fees that would be levied if the house is demolished through the city
taking adverse action. As you can see from the timeline provided in your packet, Ms. Colley has been given a substantial
amount of notification and time to rectify this problem, and any further delay beyond the proposed ten (10) day deadline
would not likely serve any useful purpose.
