Dear Owners of 14399 60th Street N.: The City wants to remind you of the conditions associated with the renewal / redevelopment of the “NAPA” building located at 14399 60th Street. These are enumerated in detail in the attached resolution and are continuing requirements. Please review these and ensure / verify compliance in the next 90 days with all elements. We would like you to especially note items #4 and #7. Requirement #4 lists that the mechanical equipment must be screened. This is typically accomplished with site appropriate materials that reasonably match the building and/or can sometimes be simple quality fencing. The image shows the equipment that must be concealed. Please provide a plan for our review not later than June 15th, 2019. Similarly, related to #7, we note that quite often the dumpsters remain out of the required enclosures. Please remind all site operators that these units are to be returned to the enclosure and it is to be kept closed. Lastly, the west side of the building has a number of downspouts that have been run-over and in poor condition and appearance. Please address these as well. Please let me know if you have any questions related to these items, but again please be sure to note all requirements.
