Burnside Property - Historic Lease property has been vacated due to lease violations and property needs immediate attention. Due to condition of the property, clean up of all buildings is required. This will be accomplished by contract, as there are possible hazard issues, such as germs from decayed food and animal feces within buildings.
Upon clean up, park maintenance staff will correct weatherization issues such as broken windows, gutters, siding, etc. All plumbing will be checked, tested, and repaired to eliminate structural damage from broken components/water. Cyclic mowing will be undertaken to reduce fire hazard and animal/vermin infestation.
