PUBLIC HEARING
2015 CITY CODE VIOLATIONS
November 16, 2015 City Council Meeting
Proposed Action
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move to approve a resolution adopting the
assessment of City Code violations for 2015.
Passage of this motion will result in the levy of special assessments for expenses incurred by the
City in 2015 for City Code violations.
Overview
Notice of Special Assessment letters were mailed on October 20, 2015 to property owners who
were in violation of various provisions of the City Code including Title 4-1-3 (Length of Weeds
and Grass), Title 6-2-10 (Exterior Storage), Title 11-19-11 (Off-Street Parking), and Title
11-16-29 (Waste). During the past year, staff performed inspections and authorized the
contractual mowing of grass, removal of weeds, exterior storage, and junk car violations where
the property owners had failed to correct the violations.
The total amount proposed to be assessed to the parcels is $1,270.00, including 18% interest
through 2016. Staff has not received any written objections from the owners of the properties
being assessed for the City Code violations.
