Re: Construction Materials&Work Permit Requirements
Dear Mr.Bonse:
I was in your neighborhood yesterday and noticed from the street,a couple of waste hauler bags in
your driveway. I did also notice that they did have some waste in them and there was
materials/items also upon the driveway. City Ordinance does not allow outside storage of such
materials or waste. This bag has been in place for some time and is to be removed no later than April
30,2018.
Based on these observations, it appears that there may be remodeling work in process at your
residence. If so, please be advised that the City of Oak Park Heights Ordinance has adopted the
Minnesota State Building Code (including plumbing) and by its reference the International
Residential,Mechanical,Fuel Gas and Fire Code.
The adoption of these codes does require inspections to new construction and remodeling projects
(ie:siding,windows,additions,etc.). Residential contractors and Plumbers are required by the State
of Minnesota to have a State license to perform work within the State of Minnesota.
The last permit I have on file for this property was issued in 203Dfor a residing project. I have not
been contacted for a work permit for any remodeling work to your home. Remodeling work without
a permit and subsequent inspection is a violation of City Ordinance and State Law.
Please give me a call or email me,to let me know what is occurring so that we can discuss permit
needs,if any and to discuss any problem with the removal of the outside storage of the waste bags.
I appreciate your prompt response and look forward to talking with you.
Sincerely,
PLANING&CODE ENFORCEMENT
