Executive Summary: In May 2023 during a regular unit inspection, it was suspected that a tenant at Riverview
Apartments may be using methamphetamines in their unit. Upon discovery, Riverview hired an independent testing
company to test the unit,where the report returned high levels of crystal meth smoke on all of the surfaces. This is
a very dangerous substance and can cause extreme harm to residents. We have contracted with a professional
remediation company to renovate the unit since the tenants are no longer living there. The company utilizes the
report and guarantees full removal of any harmful substances. This is a specialized practice and ensures safety for
the future residents of the unit.
Ms.Bell Williams introduced the team-Johnathan Johnson,Riverview Property Manager and Brenda
Camunez,Property Manager.
Ms. Camunez explained that the contract before the board was for Riverview Apartments and 70 Services
for cleanup of a unit with high levels of contamination. The tenants lease was not renewed and were referred to the
homeless service program. This company specialized in methamphetamine mediation. The cost of the services was
$26,050.
Mr. Johnson stated that the company that was chosen seemed well versed and offered to return as many
times as needed. The tenants left behind a cat that has been rehomed and is being well taken care of.
Commissioner McQueeney moved to approve the Agreement for Procurement and Installation Services
between Riverview Apartments,LP and 70 Services LLC.
Chairman Pro-Tem Scherr seconded the motion. Of the two voting commissioners,the vote was
unanimous.
