Glen Harrington commented that Erika Woods and Veronica Warden inspected the property located at 394 Cotuit Road on December 30, 2015. The results of the inspection are: the living room remains clear and clean. The kitchen stove and prep area around the sink is clean and clear. However, the eating area and table are still heavily cluttered and disorganized. Items cleared from other rooms are removed but not discarded or donated. The house plants are organized around the edge of the kitchen, but access to the computer is blocked. The first floor hallway is clear. The first floor master bedroom —the bed was clear and made. The perimeter of the bedroom is heavily cluttered. The dining room at the end of the hall is clean and organized. The second floor bath is not very clean because the occupants on the second floor use it. The door leading into the second floor bedroom, used by the daughter and son-in-law, is absolutely filthy. The bed is clear and made up. The perimeter of the bedroom is clear with no clutter; however, the room is covered with dog hair. The alcove at the top of the stairs is heavily cluttered. The basement was not inspected, nor was the second bedroom on the second floor. There is progress, but there are still issues that need to be corrected. Mr. Harrington remarked that he, Erika Woods, and Veronica Warden will be meeting next week to discuss the end goal. Since the original agreement has expired, Mr. Harrington would like another signed agreement with additional goals. 3. Update on Failed Septic System: 87 Lighthouse Lane.
