Ref: Citation #SW 384982 written to Mr. Otley 533 Co Oj'
Dear Ms. Nodes,
This letter is to inform you that Mr. Otley has removed his metal storage shed and has
relocated his garden shed to comply with the set back requirements of our City's Zoning
Ordinance. In addition, Mr. Otley has addressed other violations not listed on the citation.
Locks have been put on the fence gates securing the area of the pool, and he has made
application for his home occupation license.
Most of the necessary corrections to his deck have been made. His design of the stair handrail
is not in compliance with the code: all that is needed is an additional handrail on one side of the
stair structure. I am sending him a handout with the design guidelines for the handrail and am
giving him notice that the stairs are not to be used until the correction has been made and I
have inspected and approved the design. I will give him a deadline date of December 22 for
compliance and will schedule an inspection for compliance.
Please contact me if you have any questions, either by phone at 651-275-9590 or by e-mail at
jbutler @cityofoakparkheights.com.
Reectfully
