Re: Step 1 Notice of Violation-5680 Penfield Ave. N., Oak Park Heights
Dear Mr. Seim:
This letter serves as the City's request for Ordinance Compliance. The above-referenced property once
again has a large quantity of rubbish stored to the exterior at both the garage side and the east side of
the home. There are vehicles and a trailer parked upon the yard area; it appears the van parked upon the
driveway is not operable as it does not appear to have been moved recently; and the grass needs to be
mowed.
We have spoken about the need for items to be stored to the interior or disposed of and have discussed
the need for vehicles/trailers to be parked upon the driveway,within the garage or to an approved parking
pad, and have also discussed the need for ongoing lawn maintenance.
While some progress was made earlier this Spring, the yard area is once again in violation of City
Ordinance City Nuisance Ordinance 1109.03.E, H & I with regard to rubbish and lawn maintenance.
(Ordinance 1109 enclosed) and 401.15.F.7, which does not allow for outdoor storage, including storage
of inoperable vehicles.
401.15.F.7-Use of Required Area. Required accessory off-street parking spaces in any district shall not be
utilized for open storage,sale or rental of good,repair work, storage of inoperable vehicles and/or storage of
snow.
Compliance abatement is requested and shall be accomplished by:
1. Mowing the yard area;
2. Removing inoperable vehicles from the driveway or placing them into operational condition;
3. Removing the vehicles and trailers from the yard area and placing them fully upon the driveway,
to the interior of the garage or removing them from the property; and
4. Removing all outdoor rubbish accumulation.
Trailers placed on the driveway shall not be used as a regular outdoor storage collection site; however, it
is recognized that short term collection placement to trailers may occur from time to time.
Tree City U.S.A.
Oak Park Heights City Fall Clean up is scheduled for Saturday, October 2"d. I encourage you to utilize the
event for the removal of stockpiled rubbish accumulation.
This letter directs that you take the necessary steps to fully address items 1 - 4 above no later than
Thursday, October 14,2021. Compliance verification will be made.
Specifically:
1. Mow the yard.
2. Remove inoperable vehicles from the driveway. Either place them to the garage or remove them
from the property.
3. Remove all vehicles&trailers from the yard area.
4. Remove all outdoor rubbish accumulations. This includes any to the yard and driveway areas,
placed in trailers or vehicles.
The outdoor storage and lawn maintenance are ongoing items. You need to be consistent in keeping the
outside area free of rubbish accumulation and the lawn maintained. Vehicles need to be on the driveway
or upon an approved parking pad, in operable condition or removed from the property. No vehicles or
trailers shall be parked upon the yard area
Your prompt attention is demanded. Please contact me immediately with any questions or to discuss the
situation.
