The property, as currently observed, does not comply with the minimum standards of sanitation, safety, or maintenance required by this chapter. Despite the dwelling, conditions on site reflect ongoing violations, including the presence of fire damaged structural components, animal debris, deteriorated materials, and unsanitary accumulations that pose risks to health and safety. Further, owner(s) and persons in control of the premises are responsible for maintaining the areas they occupy in clean and sanitary condition. Conditions on site including interior hoarding, excessive debris, animal waste, and deteriorated structural elements indicate these responsibilities have not been met. The property remains in violation until all unsafe, unsanitary, and non compliant conditions are corrected and the premises meet the minimum requirements of this chapter.)
