RE:Home Fire—Clean-up—Second Letter
Dear Lynn and Wayne,
As you know the City provided you a communication in Mid-October requesting that you perform the following by Oct 28th,2015
1. Close-up/board over the homes many openings to the elements,(roof,walls,windows)that invite weather conditions
to the interior as well as mice,etc.
2. Secure a large dumpster(s)from a commercial vendor to place debris into,stacking material outside on the
grass/driveway to be cleaned-up at a late date is not acceptable.Ensure any debris is placed in these dumpsters and
ensure the property is secure and as tidy as possible.
3. Site Clean-up and demolition of the western portion of the home should occur as quickly as possible.Please provide
by the above date a written plan of action for this and the entirety of the home.
While you have secured dumpsters and some materials have been placed for removal;the site remains in a state of general
disrepair nor have you complied with items#land#3 above.At this time the City's position is that you must complete the
removal of the damaged structure and clean the entire exterior property up by a date not later than December 4th,2015. Clean-
up also incudes the removal of all debris and materials in the yard.
Please note that the structure as-is,is not in habitable condition and may NOT be occupied as the City will keep utilities(Water
and Sewer)in an inoperable condition.Again,if any portion of the structure is to remain it shall first be determined structurally
sound by a MN Licensed structural engineer with a written report supplied to the City outlining such findings with supporting
details.
Lastly,the City will not permit habitation on the site in the motorhome past this Dec 4th date.So please find alternative
accommodations omptly.
