Staff said the property remains in a state of disrepair: a persistent hole in the roof has caused interior collapse and moisture damage, the structure shows signs of vandalism and there is a mold-like substance inside. The property is listed under the city's substandard and dangerous structure ordinances and had previously been given orders to secure and remediate the structure.

Owner Jill Malone told the board she submitted an insurance claim and has been working with contractors. Malone said a contractor who visited Saturday advised that mold remediation should precede roofing because, she was told, mold left in place could affect a new roof. Malone said the contractor and a mold-remediation team visited the property and she expected a follow-up this week with remediation recommendations.

Board members said they would be willing to extend the order only if the owner produced a contractor-supplied plan and a firm date for remediation and roof replacement. One board member said mold remediation can be more expensive than roofing depending on the extent of contamination and that the board needed a clear contractor timeline rather than second-hand updates from the owner.

The board voted 7-0 to extend the order until Sept. 10 on the condition that a roofing contractor and/or mold-remediation company appear at that hearing with a detailed plan of action and dates for remediation and roof repair or replacement.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Grand Prairie - Building Advisory & Appeals Board","oneSentenceSummary","The Building Advisory and Appeals Board on Aug. 4 extended the compliance timeline for 1605 Acosta Street and required a mold-remediation contractor or roofer to appear at the Sept. 10 hearing with a detailed plan and completion dates.","taxTitle","Grand Prairie, Dallas County, Texas","taxId",2784,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":44,"_47":80,"_49":81,"_51":82,"_53":83,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":84,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":85,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6486644,"Board leaves 30-day remediation order in place for occupied manufactured home at Dover Road",1200,1543000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5528635-1d464c982e0aeeeca2303c9c8e9b7b4e&start=1543&end=2743","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5528635-1d464c982e0aeeeca2303c9c8e9b7b4e/thumbnail_1543000.jpg","/articles/6486644/Grand-Prairie/Dallas-County/Texas/Board-leaves-30-day-remediation-order-in-place-for-occupied-manufactured-home-at-Dover-Road","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6486644-e89e15daad4d0829303b38be357ad982/orig.mp4?Expires=1770440327&Signature=mfvUCoLQszvqshFu~IaFl2PBqqGCwmTPulFmQmXIHnh8jBWYYDvVw04ngSE1k4tr-~9~nlT7GxZhukYYPZLyvlPZnc0SeYfd95-Uu5ndzyBS8Xb4pubk32-p-rMPodXk19rBKdTyp4~vCXKZgh62Q4pOAppVn9DHtu2A2WzFUe6P7rC5BL25QBjRwBWxz6pfnhu7Tr5Eojwsf8bBVHIkNAK08kmd7oIskcBJLQ30Vq~cRQIPg~ZyAmfiSCBgd1jASbzDG6THeeW7doHnGT2CY7WqaqnGMs9hPW7bOADwqAaPDdDEU4dNhkb5TBYKr4aNjNj04DqNG2YpfIq~k6rPXw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Building Advisory and Appeals Board on Aug. 4 voted unanimously to maintain a previously issued 30-day order for the manufactured home at 490 Dover Road, Unit 194.

Staff reported the unit, in the Shady Grove mobile home community, had numerous code violations when first inspected including damaged porches, electrical and sanitation problems and signs of unauthorized access. Inspectors said the property had been partially secured and cleared of exterior debris but remained occupied and without running water.

Carolina Talamantes, speaking as a representative of the property owners association, told the board the association has given the occupant two weeks to resolve ownership paperwork and outstanding dues so the shared water service can be restored. Talamantes said the association is prepared to pursue a lien and foreclosure and, if necessary, demolition if the occupant does not take required steps; she estimated the association's timeline for action at 30 to 60 days.

Staff and board members discussed the limits on boarding inhabited structures: staff said boarding is not a safe long-term option for occupied units because glazing, egress and fire-code requirements could be violated. Staff suggested a surrounding fence with a lockable gate as an alternative if the unit cannot be vacated.

The board recorded a motion to leave the existing order unchanged and not amend it; the motion passed 7-0. Staff said the city will continue to work with the property owners association and pursue other remedies, including securing the structure at the owner's expense, assessing civil penalties, placing liens and, where appropriate, pursuing tax-foreclosure actions.","The Building Advisory and Appeals Board on Aug. 4 voted 7-0 to keep in place the 30-day remediation order for an occupied manufactured home at 490 Dover Road, Unit 194.",{"_33":87,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":88,"_41":89,"_43":90,"_45":91,"_47":92,"_49":93,"_51":94,"_53":95,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":96,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":97,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6486649,"Owner’s representative reports roof repairs at duplex; board extends compliance deadline to Oct. 6",1370,122000,1492000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5528635-1d464c982e0aeeeca2303c9c8e9b7b4e&start=122&end=1492","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5528635-1d464c982e0aeeeca2303c9c8e9b7b4e/thumbnail_122000.jpg","/articles/6486649/Grand-Prairie/Dallas-County/Texas/Owners-representative-reports-roof-repairs-at-duplex-board-extends-compliance-deadline-to-Oct-6","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6486649-44b08c94c6208e2027913f11293a0e0a/orig.mp4?Expires=1770440327&Signature=LMPuO1d1jh-7xsJIlyXid1Bn-6yThozy7wrhZMRcTJiWpe8~GFT4LMJYUKg8H51ONeGqGjr9EPiACv~xMKbBl6ogZd02Ut7lGQZq7GvCENyiHxFjBGkZaGuXT97pD~wVPF260Gl8uh5p5aqrrjpjxK7VxfXAU~al4iEmyKc3p9HJtzruYr1H5jgt5Rlj8TYiuKr7gN2X-gWcfYbQafJKetEnPqDr04CMW4iJUWG7RYPgP7oqvJ4G6SBmW4QQHNI8WOc7tvWgz9p-kpXRq3sbAU55c-G33Yt3u0t9ofVIytsFlz5rXkMWYuGREoPXFNjYWmrpUfZLTOia8CtgZJVfFg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Grand Prairie Building Advisory and Appeals Board on Aug. 4 heard a progress report on a dangerous-structure order for 132 and 134 Northeast Ninth Street and extended the compliance deadline to Oct. 6, 2025.

Staff told the board the duplex had been the subject of earlier hearings after a code officer observed broken windows, trash and people coming and going from a van parked in the driveway. The city’s adopted orders require the structure to be repaired, removed or demolished in accordance with the Grand Prairie code of ordinances and to submit monthly progress reports to code compliance until the work is complete.

Felipe Espinosa, who said he is managing the property for his sister and the family’s legal owner, told the board the roof was repaired on the prior Saturday and called the work “a huge morale boost for our family.” He said the family has applied for loans and is waiting on contractor estimates for electrical, plumbing and interior repairs and expected contractors to submit permit applications.

Staff confirmed the structure is listed under the Grand Prairie Code of Ordinances as a substandard and dangerous structure (Grand Prairie Code of Ordinances Sections 29.18 and 29.28) and reiterated the city’s authority to secure, repair, remove or demolish the structure or assess civil penalties and liens if the owner does not comply.

Board members discussed whether the documentation on file constituted a sufficiently detailed plan to allow an extension beyond the order's original timeframe. The board voted unanimously to amend the order so the owner’s representative must submit a progress report by the board's Sept. 10 meeting and present a more detailed contractor-based completion plan at the Oct. 6 meeting; all other orders remain in effect.

Action on the motion was recorded as a 7-0 vote in favor of the extension and the reporting schedule.

Board members and staff said building inspections and permit review will determine what additional engineering or repair documentation is required, and that a final, inspected sign-off will be needed to remove the structure from the city's enforcement list.

The board asked the owner's representative to continue monthly progress reports to code compliance and noted that if the owner failed to keep the property secured the city could take action at the owner's expense.","The Grand Prairie Building Advisory and Appeals Board on Aug. 4 heard a progress report on a dangerous-structure order for 132 and 134 Northeast Ninth Street and extended the compliance deadline to Oct. 6, 2025.",{"_33":99,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":100,"_41":101,"_43":102,"_45":103,"_47":104,"_49":105,"_51":106,"_53":107,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":108,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":109,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6486635,"Board approves minutes, elects Wendell Davidson as chair and Eric Kee as vice chair",4015,5000,4020000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5528635-1d464c982e0aeeeca2303c9c8e9b7b4e&start=5&end=4020","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5528635-1d464c982e0aeeeca2303c9c8e9b7b4e/thumbnail_5000.jpg","/articles/6486635/Grand-Prairie/Dallas-County/Texas/Board-approves-minutes-elects-Wendell-Davidson-as-chair-and-Eric-Kee-as-vice-chair","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6486635-e9369f6db72d62a2011406907351e90d/orig.mp4?Expires=1770440327&Signature=fz84pws3OW3QLI97chGDVxgHSzC5-ksUYEYXsC305o9SZYbXGv0P7hJ1c2m80P3GFeeQGWcd9jzh1WjP~LcCgG9RN-GOp8a53tV~po3n73ZSqveSbCc7s9XYtgNVajfOjXtFKAwy0hO0b2GzodQhBP0rx1XwCumIlMabu8PlKF-TML~r~vRQZqTuXGScSLiB29n3pLC2weuH9CYygpwS067NZelYOASKun1l0KkLZwMgad9Uu-6goJhjHWDqLB~qcHuUG09BWw5NN8KnC2~jj6oJ52guef5GPr27xPyD8HNVofbBkIAJeGsTm8U66etcJbHrr384RubAAQ2dXPLnWg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Grand Prairie Building Advisory and Appeals Board opened its Aug. 4 meeting by approving the minutes from the July 7 meeting and later held annual officer elections.
