Council Member Robert Holden discusses Intro 688, which proposes cure periods for certain violations by Veteran Service Organizations (VSOs). He emphasizes that the legislation is not primarily a funding issue but rather aims to give VSOs extra time to address minor violations that are not structurally dangerous.

  • Holden suggests the bill would provide VSOs additional time to fix building problems without incurring fines
  • He notes that the legislation wouldn't necessarily require significant funding, mainly just allowing extra time for VSOs to address issues
  • The council member emphasizes that the extra time would be for minor violations, not for dangerous structural problems
