Re: 5711 Oren Ave. N., Oak Park Heights, MN - Site Maintenance
Washington County Parcel ID 04.029.20.13.0011
To Whom It May Concern:
As you know, property maintenance is an important part of keeping things looking nice and of being a
good neighbor. Earlier this summer in response to complaints received about the condition of the
yard a site visit was conducted wherein the yard was found in need of mowing. A letter was mailed to
the property of record at that time for abatement. There being no abatement response, the City
abated the nuisance. Said costs of abatement shall be charged to the property in the form of an
assessment.
The property was recently checked for compliance and found in violation to Oak Park Heights
Nuisance Ordinance 1109.03.H as it relates to "noxious weeks, tall grasses, and other rank growths ".
A copy of this ordinance has been enclosed for your review and use.
With this letter you are requested to have the weeds and grass mowed /maintained at the site no
later than Sunday, May 24, 2012 and are further ordered to keep the property free from
reoccurrence of this nuisance for 160 days.
A compliance check shall be made after May 24, 2012. If the nuisance has not been abated, the City
will enter the property to abate the nuisance and return periodically to keep the nuisance abated until
the owner /occupant acknowledges their responsibility and provides reasonable assurance to the City
for the continued care of the property so that the condition will not reoccur within the 160 day period.
If the City is required to abate the nuisance, the City shall extend a tax against the above - reference
property in the form on an assessment for staff, contractor, administration time and materials
expended to abate the nuisance.
Your prompt attention is appreciated. Please contact me immediately with any questions you may
have regarding this request.
Sincerely,
at.'
