Tempe Hearing Officer public hearing, held October 20, 2026 (as identified in the title and transcript; meeting metadata is dated October 21), addressed approval of prior minutes and property-code enforcement. The hearing officer approved the October 6 minutes. Item 2B, concerning 252 East Randall, was removed from consideration because the property had come into compliance.

The hearing officer approved 180-day open abatements for two properties: 1101 West Greenway Drive (Case CE261473), for junk, trash, and debris; and 1049 East Spence Avenue (Case CE257919), for junk and debris, deteriorated landscaping, and sidewalk obstruction. The first owner disputed the notice and raised concerns about inspection methods and time to comply; the officer noted the 14-day period to bring the property into compliance or appeal, after which the city may abate the property and assess costs to the owner. No contract awards, purchasing decisions, or other procurement activity were identified.
