15405 57th St. N., OPH (#03.029.20.24.0043)
Dear Christopher& Kimberly:
I am writing regarding the yard maintenance of the vacant lot owned by you at 15405 57th St. N., in
Oak Park Heights and to remind you that this property does require regular mowing and weed
maintenance. The property is presently overgrown and does not appear to have been cut recently.
Additionally, there are a couple of trees that are in poor and/or sick condition near the shared
property line to your neighbor at the east side of the lot. Please take a look at these and treat or
remove them as appropriate. If you would like to visit with the City Arborist with regard to tree health
or resources for weed control, please contact Arborist Lisa Danielson at 651-439-4439.
The unmaintained lawn, in its current state, is considered a public nuisance per City Nuisance
Ordinance 1109. A copy of this ordinance is enclosed for your reference.
This letter serves as the City's request that the lawn be mowed and weeds be treated and/or removed
prior to Monday,July 20, 2020 and that the yard continue to be maintained on a regular basis.
The condition of the trees should also be visited prior to Monday, July 20, 2020 and any
remedial/removal plans be coordinated. Kindly notify me as to the outcome of the trees and the plan
for them.
Your prompt attention is required. Please contact me with any questions you may have.
Sincerely,
PLANNING &CODE ENFORCEMENT
