At the May 12, 2026 regular meeting, Covert Township approved an estimate from Next Level Junk Removal in the amount of $37,500 to remove court-ordered blight at 76842 48th Avenue. This indicates the township is aggressively enforcing its dangerous building and blight ordinances, moving beyond orders to demolition and cleanup using contracted services. The work likely includes removal of debris, inoperable vehicles, and possibly structures, followed by proper disposal and site restoration as ordered by the court.While this particular cleanup contract has been awarded to Next Level Junk Removal, it signals that Covert Township is willing to invest significant funds in future nuisance abatement and blight cases. Environmental, demolition, hauling, and restoration firms can track ordinance enforcement actions and dangerous building orders—several of which were upheld at the same May 12 meeting—to position themselves for future abatement work, and consultants can help the township build repeatable procedures and cost recovery mechanisms for such projects.

The agenda also lists multiple properties with upheld dangerous building orders, suggesting a pipeline of potential future abatement projects.
