Dear Mr. Osmundson:
The City has communicated with you on several occasions regarding the ongoing nuisances to the
site, including that of sign removal, lawn and weed maintenance, building and site conditions. To
date requests have largely not addressed and maintained continuously.
The City most recently communicated with you on June 7, 2021—via email and requested that:
• The site be mowed, that the grass and weeds all be cleaned up.
• The light poles in the parking lot be straightened or removed.
A site check was made, at which time the lawn was found to have been mowed. Nothing appeared
to have been done with regard to other weed maintenance or the light poles. In addition, please re-
paint or clean-off any remnants of the former "MCCORMICK" signage found on the building.
Considering this history and the continuous issues, the property is declared a public nuisance
pursuant to City Nuisance Ordinance 1109.01(D) and 1109.03. This letter serves as the City's 30-day
notice to you, to address the above issues no later than July 30, 2021. Failure to do so will result in
the matter being directed to the City Attorney for legal recourse.
Additionally, in event of failure to comply with the items above, as requested, the City may pursue
the remedy of the items under its own forces and as such will recover all such costs of doing so
under a special assessment as outline in City Ordinance 1109.07, plus all administrative fees. There
will be no issuance of building permits or consideration of plan review for this site unless and until
such time, it is first brought into compliance. A site review shall be made promptly after July 30,
2021.
Please contact myself or City Administrator Johnson immediately with any questions.
Sincerely,
PLANNING & CODE ENFORCEMENT
