The meeting was called to order by the Chairman.
The first item of business was a report on the Workable
Program by the City Planner. He advised the commission
that after review and approval of the Zoning and Planning
Commission and the Citizens' Advisory Committee it would
be ready for submission to the City Commission and upon
their approval to the Federal Government. He pointed
out that there were three main reasons that the City of
Sanford was not recertified - -, that records were not
kept according to the Minimum Housing Code, ( records were
kept according to the Building Code), that there were no
housing for displaced persons, and that the Building Official
had not been able to enforce the Minimum Housing Code.
He further stated that a minimum housing code inspector
would be needed for the enforcement of this program. After
discussion and on recommendation of the City Planner it was
moved that a recommendation be made to the City Commission
that the Building official be authorized to enforce the
previously adopted Minimum Housing Code. Motion made by
Mr. Logan, seconded by Mr. Karns and duly carried.
