90-year-old jailed over unsightly property



GAINESVILLE - A 90-year-old Hall County woman is serving a 30-day jail sentence after what county officials say has been a 20-year battle to get her to clean up her property.

Charlene Coburn lives on Price Road near H. Thomas Road.

Fox 5 reports there are three buildings on her property, all of them showing signs of substantial damage. In addition, there was debris on the property, and authorities report that a number of animals were living there. Hall County officials also say Coburn is a hoarder.

Finally, after the two-decade effort to get her to clean up the property, Hall County Code Enforcement took her to court, and after she didn't follow orders to clean up the property, Coburn was jailed.
