Re: Notice of Violation – OPH Nuisance Ordinance 1109 – Tall Grass/Weeds
Property ID 05.029.20.23.0059
Dear Joy:
This letter serves as a follow-up to our conversation of yesterday, regarding the tall grass and
weed maintenance needed at 13180 56th St. N. It is my understanding that you have reached
out to lawn services and had expected one to arrive yesterday, though were uncertain as to
whether or not they would. I did email you some resource information and provided you
with a couple of area service providers during our conversation, in the event you needed to
do additional reach out to get the lawn attended to.
As you are aware, lawns need to be regularly cut and weeds maintained. The lawn, in its
current state, is considered a public nuisance per City Nuisance Ordinance 1109.
This letter serves as the City’s request that the lawn be mowed and the grass/weeds growing
be treated and/or removed prior to Monday, June 8, 2020 and that the yard continue to be
maintained on a regular basis. A compliance check will be made on or after June 8th.
Thank you for your prompt attention. Please contact me with any questions you may have.
Sincerely,
PLANNING & CODE ENFORCEMENT
Julie Hultman
Building Official
