Re: Fence Repair
Dear Mr. &Mrs.Johnson:
Property maintenance is an important part of keeping things looking nice and of being a good
neighbor. The fence at your rear yard is in a state of disrepair,with some of its panel sections failing
to the rear of your yard area.
The fence surrounding your yard, in its current condition, is in violation City Fencing,Screening&
Landscaping Ordinance section 401.15.E.3.d.that states:
"both sides of any fence shall be maintained in a condition of reasonable repair and
appearance by its owner and shall not be allowed to become and remain in a
condition of disrepair or danger, or constitute a nuisance, public or private."
This fence also services as the enclosure of your pool as required by City Ordinance 1303 An Ordinance
Regulating The Construction and Maintenance of Private Swimming Pools In the City of Oak Park
Heights.
This letter directs that you fence repair so that it is structurally sound and not falling over. Please
contact me to discuss your repair plans to determine whether or not a work permit is required.Such
repair to support the fence from falling to the adjacent neighbor's property shall be made prior to
Monday,August 2021.
Please contact me immediately with any questions you may have regarding this request.
Sincerely,
PLANNING &CODE ENFORCEMENT
