Consider a request by Douald D' Antiguac to appear before the Committee regarding boys and girls club in the south side area. Mr. D' Antignac appeared before the committee regarding the establishment of a boys and girls club in the south side area. I Mr. Mays: You mentioned the boys and girls club specifically. Were you talking about just boys and girls club in generality of the official Boys and Girls club. Because. I'm trying to separate it a little bit there. You have a great organization where they are doing a good job and or course they stay stretched in terms of how to deal with them. There are some programs where we work in cooperation with them. And they are looking to expand some things. Today, we will have to receive this as information. What I don't mind working on you with, and you mentioned a specific area and of course two of us are on that committee and all of us are concerned about that. If you want to interact with them with their particular organization accept I think we can arrange to do that in a specific performance out side of this meeting. Secondly, if it's regarding furthering what we may do from within recreation and parks we can do that as well. What I would suggest is that if we do take this as information today, we can get back and set up a meeting with a four some as such, Recreation & Parks, Boys & Girls Club as well commissioners from that area and then go from that point. Mr. Bridges: Mr. Chairman, I think you're right this probably needs to be discussed in a separate meeting with more experienced parties involved, especially the Boys and Girls Club since they already know what to do in regards to those age groups. .r would like to make the motion that we accept this as information. Mr. Colclough: Second. Motion carries unanimously. 2. New Ownership: A.N. 02-15: A request by Peter V.

Mr. Bridges: I would like to make a motion that we move this forward without recommendation. Mr. Colclough: Second for discussion.

Discuss Craven's salvage yard on Highway 56 with possibility of declaring it a public nuisance. (Requested by Commissioner Cheek) I Mr. Cheek: This is another situation where staff has been working very diligently over the last several years trying to resolve an eyesore and what I would consider a health hazard and probably and environmental hazard. We have some representatives here from the state code enforcement. I would like the Committee to hear from them on the exact steps they have taken. After we hear from them I would like to request that someone make a motion or administratively direct our staff to declare this a public nuisance because it's not being resolved despite our best efforts. Ms S. Hodges, State Code Enforcement: For approximately two and a half years we have requested that Mr. Cravens gain compliance on his salvage yard. He has recently just purchased another location in the 2000 block of Old Savannah Rd that is gaining the same reputation as the Mike Padgett location. I have gone to court with Mr. Craven on seven separate occasions. At this point I have turned the case over to the State EPD department. After further discussion, Mr. Bridges: From what I'm hearing we have given this business plenty of time to I come into compliance. We apparently haven't gotten his attention. The motion 4 I that I am going to make is that the Attorney, Administrator and our L&I Dept., get together and bring back a recommendation to this Committee that would address the \:oncerns of being in compliance as well as address cleaning up the project. Mr. Kuhlke: Second. Mr. Mays ask Mr. Bridges to amend the motion to include the new location in the cleanup process. Mr. Bridges: I will amend my motion to inclnde the Old Savannah Road location. Mr. Kuhlke: Second. Motion carries unanimously.
