PRESALE INSPECTION PROGRAM
~
A public presentation was presented by Tim Rush supporting the consideration of a
presale inspection program. Mr. Rush provided the committee with the background on
the previous consideration for the presale inspection program, which was put together
approximately eight to ten years ago. His recommendation to the committee was that
the program be re-evaluated for reconsideration at this time.
Kenneth Adams briefed the committee on the previous history of the program noting
there was strong opposition from the East Orange County Board of Realtors against
such a program. It was the opposition by the real estate industry that caused the
previous efforts to consider a presale inspection program to be tabled.
Council members Bist & Christy suggested to Mr. Rush that he query Com Link to see
whether or not there was any interest at the neighborhood association level to pursue
the program. Mr. Rush agreed to do so before asking the council and staff to expend
any work effort to revise the program.
