06-03-2009	11:22 AM	REINSPECTION	TODAY, JUNE 3, 2009, I PERFORMED A FOLLOW UP INSPECTION ON THE UNIT AT 1510 E. CLARADGE AVE, AVON PARK, FL. AFTER PEERING THROUGH A WINDOW, I OBSERVED THAT THE UNIT WAS GUTTED AND APPEARED TO BE VACANT. APPROXIMATELY 85% OF THE ORIGINAL BACK WALL HAS BEEN REMOVED, THEN RECONSTRUCTED WITH 2X4 LUMBER AND OSB SHEATHING. NO SIDING HAS BEEN APPLIED TO DATE. SOME OF THE FLOOR STRUCTURE HAS BEEN REPAIRED WITH NON-STRUCTUARAL LUMBER. NEW 3/4" PLYWOOD HAS BEEN PLACED OVER THE EXISTING FLOOR, BUT NOT COMPLETED YET. AT LEAST ONE TRUSS IS ROTTED OFF AT THE SOUTH END, AND IS NOT BEARING ON THE NEWLY CONSTRUCTED WALL. TWO OF THE ROOF OVER TIEDOWN STRAPS HAVE BEEN SEVERED WHERE THE NEW WALL WAS CONSTRUCTED, RENDERING THE TIEDOWN SYSTEM USELESS. A LOT OF THE ELECTRICAL HAS BEEN REMOVED, BUT THE SYSTEM IS STILL ACTIVE. SEVERAL ELECTRICAL CODE VIOLATIONS WERE NOTED ON THE EXTERIOR OF THE UNIT AS WELL AS THE INTERIOR OF THE UNIT AND HAVE BEEN DOCUMENTED PICTORIALLY. ALL PLUMBING FIXTURES HAVE BEEN REMOVED, AND MOST OF THE WATER LINES. SOME OF THE DWV LINES HAVE ALSO BEEN REMOVED. NO CENTRAL HEATING AND AIR CONDITIONING UNIT IS PRESENT, HOWEVER THERE IS EXISTING DUCTWORK. THE DUCTWORK IS IN DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE EARTH, SO IT IS PROBABLY DETERIORATED. SO FAR, NONE OF THE PROPER PERMITTING HAS BEEN OBTAINED FOR REBUILDING THIS STRUCTURE. IN MY OPINION THE VALUE OF THIS UNIT IS CONSIDERABLY LESS THAN THE COST OF MAKING IT LIVABLE AGAIN. IT SHOULD BE DEMOLISHED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. THE POWER COMPANY SHOULD BE CONTACTED TO SHUT OFF THE POWER TO THE STRUCTURE IMMEDIATELY.
