PLYMOUTH — The City of Plymouth Board of Public Works and Safety will continue to work with the owners of the Northgate Mobile Home Park in town to clean up the property.
Plymouth Building Commissioner Dennis Manuwal addressed the Board on the progress made at the facility since their last meeting on June 30. He requested an order of demolition for one of the trailers that had been ruled uninhabitable. No action has been taken since the unit’s owner is currently incarcerated.
Abraham Anderson, owner of the property, was in attendance online, saying that other issues addressed previously were taken care of, with most sewer and water lines being traced, and problems fixed, and said that work was underway to place water meters at all of the lots to trace where other water leaks in the system may need attention.
Anderson will also begin work on several units that he would like to rehab to make them available to buyers, and has taken action to board up the properties to minimize safety issues before they can be fixed.
Two properties came under scrutiny, with Manuwal doubting that they could be brought up to HUD standards. Both homes were constructed in the early 1970s. Anderson was given time to thoroughly examine the homes for a final decision before a demolition order would be issued.
