DISCUSSION:
Executive Summary
This report is to update the Board on the ongoing Code Enforcement activity at 473 Quarry Road, Trinidad (APN 515-172-010-000.)

Code Enforcement did not follow through with an abatement scheduled in 2022 to pursue discussions with the property owner to determine if there are feasible alternatives to abatement. This effort has not resulted in a successful alternative and for lack of alternatives to bring about compliance, abatement is the necessary next step.
