Meeting <\/strong><\/em>Photos by Julie Carasone<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once upon a time \u2013 actually around three years ago \u2013 Jeff and Gina Lathan (photo above) entertained the idea of converting their property on Route 237 in the Town of Stafford into an event venue. They had enough land, five acres, along with a nice yard and a renovated barn that could accommodate up to 120 people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, the couple, 28-year residents of the town, approached the Stafford Town Board to find out how to make this happen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, they say that their dream has turned into a nightmarish experience marked by incorrect information and harassment from a former town code enforcement officer, and an ongoing dispute with the Town Board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

GENESEE COUNTY\/Stafford Town Board Meeting\/July 8, 2024 \u2013 Video News Service<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Lathans were back at a Town Board meeting on Monday night \u2013 a marathon 3 \u00bd- hour session that drew about 50 residents to the Town Court building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Their situation was one of many contentious issues discussed last night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Others included the status of the former Stafford Odd Fellows Lodge building owned by James Pontillo, a solar farm application by Robert and Michelle Wood and letters from Stafford Fire Department President James Call and Treasurer Stephanie Call announcing their resignations due to a list of alleged problems in the department.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Lathans, for the second time in 18 months, came to a town meeting to find out why the board has hired an attorney to review their file and to request closure of the matter, since they had previously decided to drop their quest to become an event venue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking first, Jeff Lathan said he wanted to make it clear that he and his wife were not renting out their property and do not use it as a business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOur property is for our personal use,\u201d he said. \u201cWe do not have a barn venue; we don\u2019t have a wedding venue and we don\u2019t have a party barn.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He then asked why the board was investigating them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI want to know before I leave this meeting, and all these people that are here to support us, what is going on?\u201d he asked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That question was repeated several times by Jeff, Gina and their son, Jonathan, who all said they have been stressed out by the actions of the code enforcement officers (formerly Gerry Wood and currently Don Mullen).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhy the continued harassment?\u201d Lathan continued. \u201cYou had an individual that worked in this building (Wood) for many, many years, and you sat back and let him torture us? And not one of you, except Ed Schramm who no longer is with you, had the decency to stand up and apologize to us for this person’s behavior. It’s unacceptable.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lathan said he was forced to call the Genesee County Sheriff\u2019s Office to remove Wood from his property \u201cafter he threatened to punch me\u201d and Gina Lathan said that Wood altered a building permit issued for their new deck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gina said they enjoy sharing their property with family and friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe love entertaining, we have a beautiful property (and) we will never apologize for that,\u201d she said. \u201cWe both worked very, very hard. We raised our family there \u2026 and we did think maybe we could do something with this (since) there are barn venues around.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She said they received misinformation from Wood concerning special use permit and zoning regulations, and this ignited months of threats and miscommunication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHe gave us the wrong direction, misled us; misinformation. When we figured that out, we said we’re not doing this and we’re not doing it (now),\u201d she noted. \u201cIt’s not worth it. It’s not worth the stress because it wasn’t meant to be this big, huge \u2026 thing. We got our application back; we got our checks (for building permits) back.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Despite their change of heart, the Lathans said they keep receiving letters from Mullen, stating they are not in compliance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhat do you mean by this?\u201d Gina asked. \u201cWhy are you turning our file over to your town attorney? \u2026  So yeah, we are not leaving here tonight until we have answers of what your problem is. Or it’s going to stop because guess what? We have a big attorney now. So, it’s either ending here tonight, or this is going really far. We’re done.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>
\n

The Lathans confronted Mullen (photo at left), who was in attendance, asking him why the town has hired another attorney to investigate them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSo, what is your attorney even reviewing, because it’s not a complete, accurate file,\u201d Gina said. \u201cSo, you’re paying somebody to advise you and they don’t have the whole story. And it\u2019s costing you because you all live in the community. But it’s also costing us and it’s also costing all these people. And it doesn’t make us very happy. So we would like an answer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When she asked Mullen, \u201cWhy is our file at an attorney\u2019s office?\u201d he replied, \u201cI\u2019m not going to answer.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

When she asked Mullen, \u201cWhy is our file at an attorney\u2019s office?\u201d he replied, \u201cI\u2019m not going to answer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At that point, the crowd reacted, prompting Mullen to add, \u201cI\u2019m not going to answer because I\u2019m going to the attorney\u2019s office this week.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jeff mentioned that another town attorney advised the couple that as long as they weren\u2019t making money from their property, they were free to do what they want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re not seeking a special use permit. We’re not asking for rezoning. We want to know what’s going on,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mullen responded by saying he will have answers to his questions next week and had \u201casked the attorney just to review the file so we can get together and discuss how we move forward.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re not moving forward,\u201d Jeff replied. \u201cWe don’t want a special use permit. We don’t want to have a business and we’re not going to have a venue. We want to be left alone.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Town Supervisor Robert Clement(left) with Deputy Town Supervisor\/Councilman Ron Panek(right) <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Deputy Supervisor Ronald Panek asked Mullen if there were any open issues left in the Lathans\u2019 file, noting that it was the board\u2019s job to enforce zoning laws and building codes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWas everything done as it should have been to complete it?\u201d Panek said. Mullen replied, \u201cNo.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Immediately, Gina mentioned the building permit for a new deck, the ensuing confrontation with Wood and the alteration of the permit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fast forwarding to today, she said the deck is finished and, if that is the issue in question, someone needs to inspect it and sign off on it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBut guess what? Nobody from this town is coming on our property,\u201d she said. \u201cSo, you can send somebody else or close it out like you close out roofs when you drive by you sign off on it. Because we know that happens \u2026 that’s how our roof got closed out.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At this point, several members of the audience spoke up, imploring the board to give the Lathans a straight answer, with some shouting to leave them alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Mullen was asked if there were open issues he was investigating, he replied by saying it was not an investigation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI need counsel because everything that has happened in the past, I wasn\u2019t here,\u201d he said. \u201cSo, I need help going through the files, trying to figure out what happened in the past where we’re at today and how we’re going to move forward.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Moments later, after further questioning from the Lathans, Mullen stood up and \u2013 walking toward the exit \u2013 said, \u201cI give my resignation right now.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many in the crowd applauded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When asked if the board approved the hiring of the attorney, Board member Terry Young said Mullen \u201cneeded help \u2026 and we decided to give it to him.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As residents called for the board to settle the matter, Supervisor Robert Clement said that a code enforcement officer could come to their home, inspect the project and close it out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Panek then brought up the initial business aspect of the Lathans\u2019 plan, stating, \u201cA lot of buildings are not businesses, but they have capacity.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jeff Lathan replied that theirs is a private residence and occupancy limits don\u2019t apply. Panek said he disagreed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not a business,\u201d Gina said. \u201cBut if I want to have my church lady group over and have 30 ladies in there and have a speaker and have tea, I’m going to whether I sit on my back porch, all stuff into my living room, or sitting in the middle of the field. We can do that. Because we live the United States of America, our house is paid for our and property taxes are paid.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At that point, someone shouted, \u201cAmen,\u201d and people applauded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The parties went back and forth for several more minutes before Young said the board can\u2019t close the file until an inspection is performed. The Lathans agreed to allow Code Enforcement Officer Gene Sinclair on their property as long as he calls first to make an appointment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe want to be promised that you\u2019re going to do the inspection and leave us alone,\u201d Jeff said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
