A
A
F
Hello,
my
name
is
Juana
odampas
I
am
I'm
a
local
from
Laredo
I
came
back
to
Laredo
about
six
years
ago,
with
my
degrees
and
everything
and
I
came
back
to
to
get
back
to
the
city.
I
I
found
it
really
important.
That's
growing
up
and
seeing
people
leave
the
city
I
just
found
a
kind
of
discouraging
about
the
same
time,
motivating
to
to
make
my
own
move
here
and
make
my
own
Mark.
You
know
in
the
city
because
it
means
a
lot
to
me.
F
As
you
see,
a
79,
Victorian
and
I
came
with
with
a
purpose
to
do
exactly
as
a
historical
board
has
described
on
in
their
in
their
guidelines
and
and
coincidentally,
like
I
mean
the
reason
why
the
building
is
already
in
the
conditions
that,
as
it
is,
is
I
wasn't
completely
aware
of
the
whole
application
process.
However,
coincidentally
I
still
aspire
to
do
the
same
thing
that
the
guidelines
asked
for.
I
I
as
if
I
can
go
to
the
images
provided
on
them
on
the
application.
F
So
so,
as
you
can
see,
the
reason
I
got
into
this
I
apologize.
The
reason
I
got
into
the
whole
renovation
of
the
railing
was
because
I
started
finding
that
it
was
useless
or
not
in
so
much
useless,
but
it
seems
as
if,
like
some
of
the
parts
in
the
rating
were
too
to
an
extent
of
raw
and
deterioration
that
that
I
didn't
find
I
found
little
to
no
recourse
in
in
in
in
redoing
it.
B
F
I've
never
seen
before
I
guess,
I
mean
I.
Guess
what
I'm
trying
to
say
whether
or
not
I
mean
I
I
I'm,
still
under
the
belief
that
I'm
not
taking
these
ratings
out
just
because
I,
don't
like
them
or
anything,
I'm,
actually
replacing
them
with
exact
like
materials
I
mean
we,
we
analyzed
that
these
were
from
these
were
Pine,
but
we
instead,
we
got
treated
pine
because
that
preserves
the
the
wood
for
longer
in
outdoor
areas.
So
that's
why
we
decided
to
go
with
the
tree
of
Pine
and
so
going
back.
F
All
the
ratings
that
are
considered
we've
taken
and
we
set
aside
and
the
ones
that
are
to
know
repair
would
decide
to
completely
replace,
and
so
in
taking
those
pieces,
we
have
them
in
the
back
and
we've
kind
of
been
waiting
for
this
hearing
as
well.
Just
to
see
what
you
guys.
Thoughts
were
on
on
on
that
as
far
as
I
was
as
far
as
I
see,
it
I
think
we're
taking
the
the
proper
steps
in
other
two
inspired
to
have
it
look
the
same
as
it
was
before.
F
D
F
Yes,
as
you
can
see
like
there
was
a
picture
I
have
provided
in
the
application
where
it's
that's.
Those
are
the
pieces
that
have
been
made.
If
you
see
the
bottom
left
one.
Those
are
that
I
already
have.
Oh
there's
a
new
material,
that's
already
been
made,
and
it's
just
kind
of
waiting
for
approval
really
so.
F
F
Has
been
but
those
parts
have
been
preserved
as
well,
but
we,
but
with
the
pieces
that
weren't
salvageable,
because
I
mean,
as
far
as
I
see
this
picture.
If
you
zoom
into
the
middle
part,
it's
already
broken
there.
Some
of
them
were
like
just
completely
off
at
the
at
that
point,
and
and
so
we
decided
to
have
them
the
pieces
that
we
did
need
to
have
them
replicated
with
the
same
material.
F
The
thoughts
is
we
wanted
to
look
just
as
it
did
and
as
far
as
I
see
it,
the
only
reason
that
I'm
doing
this
is
because
there
is
wood
rot
like
there's.
No
other
reason
why
I'm
going
about
this
other
than
the
fact
that
there's
wood
rot
and
if
you
go
back
to
the
images
on
the
current
state
of
the
house
right
there.
F
If
you
can
see
right
there,
you
could
zoom
in
you
can
see
that
the
bra
that
the
balcony
in
itself,
it's
it's
it's
in
very
weak
shape
and
and
obviously
like
safety,
is
like
a
priority
to
myself
as
well
as
a
homeowner
and
I,
think
I.
Think
I
don't
want
people
to
be
I.
Don't
I
want
to
err
on
the
side,
the
caution
and
replace
all
these
materials
with
new
materials
as
far
as
it's
it's
as
far
as
it
being
like
correct
or
incorrect
I
mean
I.
That's
just
a
judgment
view.
F
The
reason
I
was
also
kind
of
vague
on
the
materials
was
because
there's
a
lot
to
determine
once
we
get
in
there
and
see
how
much
water
out
there
is
how
much
we
need
to
replace
those.
These
variables
are,
are
considerable
and,
and
so
I
couldn't
like.
As
far
as
the
materials
are
concerned,
I
put
the
materials
that
I
believe
we
need,
but
if
there's
anything
else,
it
would
probably
be
more
wood
or
less
wood
are.
F
F
That's
that's
exactly
what
minus
the
balls
minus
the
boat
Yeah
well
yeah
I
mean
that
I
mean
this
building.
I
mean
it's.
A
beautiful
building.
I
was
fortunate
enough
to
acquire
it.
It's
my
first
building,
I'm,
really
proud
of
it,
and
that's
why
I'm
doing
what
I'm
doing
like
okay,
like
as
far
as
I,
see
it
like
I
mean
I,
can
I
I,
I
I
just
I.
This
is
this.
Is
my
building
and
it's
my
baby.
D
A
C
I'm
sure
Jerry
beats
on
build
and
official
number
of
support.
So
there's
a
lot
of
structural
repair.
That's
been
done
without
regards
to
the
building
permit,
and
so
we
don't
have
an
issue
with
keeping
it
historical,
that's
not,
which
is
the
process.
You
know
why
now
you
know,
why
didn't
you
do
it
before?
Why
wasn't
there
permit
obtained?
So
that's
why
stop
work
was
issued
in
a
citation
was
issued.
G
A
couple
of
questions
just
also
really
so
that
our
board
can
understand
how
the
process
works
for
someone
that's
acquiring
a
new
building
within
in
the
district
for
you,
what
was
the
process
when
you
purchased
the
home,
whether
through
your
realtor
or
you
know,
through
City
departments?
However,
you
acquired
it
was
there
any
notification
that
you
were
in
a
historic
building?
Was
there
any
type
of
education
on
what
the
process
would
be
to
own
a
home
in
that
District
I.
F
Did
know
it
was
historic.
However,
I
and
I
knew
I
understood
the
responsibility
in
being
in
this
District.
As
far
as
preserving
the
historical
significance
of
the
buildings.
However,
what
I
wasn't
completely
informed
about
and
what
I
had
like
I
was
like
wondering,
because,
as
far
as
I
see
it
like,
I
was
replacing
wood
rot
and
I
mean
when
I
hear
the
word
building
permit.
It
just
doesn't
like
register.
G
F
You
better
call
them
first
or
anything
like
that
yeah.
It
was
more
of
like
what
Rod's
good,
okay
and
so
I
set
it
aside
and
then
I
focused
on
it
six
months
later
and
I
mean
I,
didn't
call
again
to
say:
hey
I'm
about
to
do
that.
Wood,
Rod
change
that
I
asked
about
six
months
ago,
yeah
I
just
kind
of
went
forward
with
it
and
hence
why
we're
here
now
with
everything
removed
at
this
point.
G
No
I
think
that's
something
that
our
board
has
talked
about.
A
lot
is
education
on
I,
don't
know
if
what
Partnerships
we
need
to
make
with
Realtors
and
local
companies
here
that
will
let
buyers
know
hey
this,
isn't
a
district.
It
has
certain
requirements
that
you
will
need
to
do.
I
think!
That's
that's
something
that
we're
lacking
on
our
on
our
side
of
it.
So
that's
the
only
reason
why
I
bring
it
up
is
so
that
we
can
understand
it
from
someone
else's
perspective.
G
B
Well,
I'm
a
Madam
chair
following
up
to
the
requirements
of
the
building
permit
in
the
interest
of
full
transparency
and
disclosure.
We
also
notice
in
under
under
consideration
is
simply
the
the
repair
of
the
balconies.
However,
during
our
analysis,
we
noticed
that
there
was
the
construction
of
a
Ada
ramp
and
it
looks
like
that.
B
Will
we've
been
advised
by
building
a
department
that
it
will
require
a
building
permit
and
that
will
also
Mr
Paz
has
been
been
advised
that
it'll
require
another
application
for
for
that,
but
we
just
wanted
to
make
sure
that
you
know
everybody
understands
that
that
will
require
a
separate
application
come
to
the
board
for
for
the
the
ramp.
That
has
already
looks
like
it's
already
been
constructed
and
I
guess
I,
don't
know
if
you
have
any
other
remarks.
C
You
know
if,
if
the
permit
is
just
showed
us
overall,
you
don't
get
partial
permit,
then
you
know,
like
I
mean
you
could,
but
based
on
what
it's
already
done,
we
need
a
permit,
a
plan
for
the
whole
everything
that
has
been.
You
know
what
it's
planning
on
doing.
What's
already
happened
and
what
Supply
not
doing.
F
That's
the
process,
if
I
may,
with
that
just
for
the
whole
ramp
that
was
just
discussed
I
mean
the
only
thing
I
have
to
say
about
the
ramp.
It's
up
to
code.
It's
like
this
wasn't
done,
I
hired
an
architect.
The
architect
knows
his
measurements,
and
that
was
also
done
with
some
dividends
right
as
far
as
the
permit's
concern
was
I
mean,
as
I
can
obviously
apply,
and
they
could
go
and
check
it
out
and
see
if
it's
up
to
code
I
think
that's
what
we're
looking
for
at
this
point
right.
