There was no mention of brush or tires. Chuck Votel presented paperwork showing a breakdown of the fees. Ed Sheehy stated it seems like a small area to cut for $539. Gerry Strathman responded it was not just the grass that was cut; a fair amount of refuse, tires, and tree limbs were removed. Mr. Strathman asked why the orders were not responded to. Mr. Sheehy responded he called the man who maintains ttie lot, bnt obviously this man did not do it. Gerry Strathman recoznmended denying the appeal and approval of the assessment.

(F�le J98TDBC3) (Laid over from 3-16-99) Mohamined Shahidullah, owner, appeared and stated he has been here many times. He suggested he and City staff have a meeting because he feels the City is picking at him. Gerry Strathman stated MohTmmed Shahidullah was given orders on ll-2-98 to cut the grass, the grass was not cut, and the City cut it a week later. Mr. Strathman asked why he did not cut the �ta-�3� LEGISLATIVE HEARING MINUTES OF 4-6-99 Page 2 grass. Mr. Shahidullah responded it is better that he says they aze right and he is wrong. He supports the City ordinances. Everyone has to follow the mles, but sometimes they go overboazd. Also, his health condition is getting worse. Mr. Strathman asked why Mr. Shahidullah did not hire someone cut the grass. Mr. Shahidullah responded he would like to work with the Ciry officials. Perhaps they aze misunderstanding him. There are some underlying facts that will not come up because there aze other cases to be heatd. Mr. Strathman responded he is willing to listen to Mr. Shahidullah.as long as it takes. Other people here today will have to wait their turn. However, Mr. Strathman does not understand why Mohammed Shahidullah would make the choice to not mow the grass. Mr. Shahidullah responded he did not make that choice and reiterated there are many underlying facts. Mohammed Shahidullah went on to say that false information was given to City offices. When he contests the information, it is their word against his, and the rule goes against him. He stopped calling the City because people were feeling he was bugging them. The City officiais should heaz him in an informal manner. He asked could Gerry Strathman make a recommendation that the inspectors informally meet with him. Mr. Strathman responded he has no control over the activities of Code Bnforcement. Guy Wallits reported at the last legislative hearing, a meeting was set up at noon right afterwards, but Mohammed Shahidullah did not appear. GeiYy Strathman recommended denying the appeal and approval of the assessment. The basic issue here is that notification was given to the ownet, and an opportunity was given to fix the problem. Snmmary Abatement Appeal for 297 Morton 5treet East. (File J98TDBC3) (Laid over from 3-16-99) Guy Wallits reported orders were mailed on 8-31-98 with a compiiance date of 9-2-98. Wark was done on 9-3-98. The inspectar noted that he had a phone conversation with Ken Krahn in which the summary abatemenC and work order was discussed. There were orders issued about every 3 weeks. (Guy Willits presented photographs.) Ken Krahn, owner, appeared and stated he will let Pat Okane explain because he does all the handy work. Pat Okane appeared and stated this property is a registered vacant bualding. The grass was being cut approximately every 2-3 weeks. They are in solid communication with their neighbors on both sides. The property is covered with many vines. The neighbors requested that the vines stay to help create some privacy. There is a row of wildflowers that are in the back of the property. The neighbors asked them to leave those between the gazages for privacy. a� • �� I,EGISLATIVE HEARING MINiJ1'ES OF 4-6-99 Page 3 Gerry Strathman stated these issues get started most of the time because a neighbor complains. Pat Okane responded there was a neighbor several doors down whose home was being closed down because of City code. Their child was very violent and desriuctive. The police were called several times. That building has now been shut down and the residents have moved on. The problem has now ceased. Gerry Strathman stated he can hazdly tell the d'afference between the before and after photogaphs. Ken Krahn stated the orders were issued on 8-28-98 and done by the City on 9-2-98. That seems like short notice. Mr. Krahn has 20 properties. The City's rates aze high, so if he receives a notice, there is no reason to ignore it. When he looked at the photographs, he did not see a big difference either. Gerry Strathman stated there were some bushes that needed cutting in the front. Pat Okane responded they aze a fast growing sapling. The pictures show they were trimmed back. Gercy Strathman stated technically speaking the City followed all the rules, but the time to comply was shoft. The charge assessed was $180 plus expenses. He will cut tt�e fee in half. Pat Okane stated he is frustrated. There was virtually na time to respond to thaC notice. He is dealing with people who aze at best rude. It almost sounds like a vendetta. Mr. Okane went on to say there were three other items to cover today, all on the same property. Roxanne Flink responded the other two items were already levied by the City Council. This was the only item laid over to today. Gerry Strathman recommended deleting this assessment due to an error. The other items have already been assessed by the City Council, and cannot be discussed here today. Summary Abatement Appeal for 474 Webster Street. (k�le J9812AA) (Laid over from 3-16-99) Guy Willits reported orders were mailed on 9-22-98 to remove refuse, rubbish, and junk in yard with a comply date of 4-28-98. The work was done by Parks and Recreation on 9-30-98. On 9- 28-98, the inspector spoke with the Florence Shurtleff who said she would remove it. Timothy Boeckman, owner, appeared and stated Florence Shurtleff was the prior owner. Mr. Boeckman did a search to see what was owed on the property; he went to the Reai Estate Division, and was told there was only a$250 bill. Mr. Boeckman paid it. The house has been demolished. Roxanne Fiink reporked it was put on the property's records on October 5. {A videotape was sbown.) aa-�3� LEGISLATIVE HEARING MINiJTES OF 4-6-99 Page 4 Gerry Strathman stated ali the processes were followed. The owner does have recourse against the former owner. She has a legal obligation to inform the new owner of the assessment. The situatian is that the City notified the present owner, and the work was done. Chuck Votel stated Code Enforcement can give the owner copies of the notices. Gerry Strathman recommended deny3ng the appeal and approval of the assessment. Summary Abatement Appeal for 1533 Wvnne Avenue. (File J9812AA) (Laid over from 3-16-99) No one appeazed. Gerry Strathman recommended denying the appeal and approval of the assessment. Resolution ordering the owner to remove or repair the building at 654 Van Buren Avenue.

Gerry Strathman responded it was not just the grass that was cut; a fair amount of refuse, tires, and tree limbs were removed. Mr. Strathman asked why the orders were not responded to. Mr. Sheehy responded he called the man who maintains ttie lot, bnt obviously this man did not do it. Gerry Strathman recoznmended denying the appeal and approval of the assessment.

(F�le J98TDBC3) (Laid over from 3-16-99) Mohamined Shahidullah, owner, appeared and stated he has been here many times. He suggested he and City staff have a meeting because he feels the City is picking at him. Gerry Strathman stated MohTmmed Shahidullah was given orders on ll-2-98 to cut the grass, the grass was not cut, and the City cut it a week later. Mr. Strathman asked why he did not cut the �ta-�3� LEGISLATIVE HEARING MINUTES OF 4-6-99 Page 2 grass. Mr. Shahidullah responded it is better that he says they aze right and he is wrong. He supports the City ordinances. Everyone has to follow the mles, but sometimes they go overboazd. Also, his health condition is getting worse. Mr. Strathman asked why Mr. Shahidullah did not hire someone cut the grass. Mr. Shahidullah responded he would like to work with the Ciry officials. Perhaps they aze misunderstanding him. There are some underlying facts that will not come up because there aze other cases to be heatd. Mr. Strathman responded he is willing to listen to Mr. Shahidullah.as long as it takes. Other people here today will have to wait their turn. However, Mr. Strathman does not understand why Mohammed Shahidullah would make the choice to not mow the grass. Mr. Shahidullah responded he did not make that choice and reiterated there are many underlying facts. Mohammed Shahidullah went on to say that false information was given to City offices. When he contests the information, it is their word against his, and the rule goes against him. He stopped calling the City because people were feeling he was bugging them. The City officiais should heaz him in an informal manner. He asked could Gerry Strathman make a recommendation that the inspectors informally meet with him. Mr. Strathman responded he has no control over the activities of Code Bnforcement. Guy Wallits reported at the last legislative hearing, a meeting was set up at noon right afterwards, but Mohammed Shahidullah did not appear. GeiYy Strathman recommended denying the appeal and approval of the assessment. The basic issue here is that notification was given to the ownet, and an opportunity was given to fix the problem. Snmmary Abatement Appeal for 297 Morton 5treet East. (File J98TDBC3) (Laid over from 3-16-99) Guy Wallits reported orders were mailed on 8-31-98 with a compiiance date of 9-2-98. Wark was done on 9-3-98. The inspectar noted that he had a phone conversation with Ken Krahn in which the summary abatemenC and work order was discussed. There were orders issued about every 3 weeks. (Guy Willits presented photographs.) Ken Krahn, owner, appeared and stated he will let Pat Okane explain because he does all the handy work. Pat Okane appeared and stated this property is a registered vacant bualding. The grass was being cut approximately every 2-3 weeks. They are in solid communication with their neighbors on both sides. The property is covered with many vines. The neighbors requested that the vines stay to help create some privacy. There is a row of wildflowers that are in the back of the property. The neighbors asked them to leave those between the gazages for privacy. a� • �� I,EGISLATIVE HEARING MINiJ1'ES OF 4-6-99 Page 3 Gerry Strathman stated these issues get started most of the time because a neighbor complains. Pat Okane responded there was a neighbor several doors down whose home was being closed down because of City code. Their child was very violent and desriuctive. The police were called several times. That building has now been shut down and the residents have moved on. The problem has now ceased. Gerry Strathman stated he can hazdly tell the d'afference between the before and after photogaphs. Ken Krahn stated the orders were issued on 8-28-98 and done by the City on 9-2-98. That seems like short notice. Mr. Krahn has 20 properties. The City's rates aze high, so if he receives a notice, there is no reason to ignore it. When he looked at the photographs, he did not see a big difference either. Gerry Strathman stated there were some bushes that needed cutting in the front. Pat Okane responded they aze a fast growing sapling. The pictures show they were trimmed back. Gercy Strathman stated technically speaking the City followed all the rules, but the time to comply was shoft. The charge assessed was $180 plus expenses. He will cut tt�e fee in half. Pat Okane stated he is frustrated. There was virtually na time to respond to thaC notice. He is dealing with people who aze at best rude. It almost sounds like a vendetta. Mr. Okane went on to say there were three other items to cover today, all on the same property. Roxanne Flink responded the other two items were already levied by the City Council. This was the only item laid over to today. Gerry Strathman recommended deleting this assessment due to an error. The other items have already been assessed by the City Council, and cannot be discussed here today. Summary Abatement Appeal for 474 Webster Street. (k�le J9812AA) (Laid over from 3-16-99) Guy Willits reported orders were mailed on 9-22-98 to remove refuse, rubbish, and junk in yard with a comply date of 4-28-98. The work was done by Parks and Recreation on 9-30-98. On 9- 28-98, the inspector spoke with the Florence Shurtleff who said she would remove it. Timothy Boeckman, owner, appeared and stated Florence Shurtleff was the prior owner. Mr. Boeckman did a search to see what was owed on the property; he went to the Reai Estate Division, and was told there was only a$250 bill. Mr. Boeckman paid it. The house has been demolished. Roxanne Fiink reporked it was put on the property's records on October 5. {A videotape was sbown.) aa-�3� LEGISLATIVE HEARING MINiJTES OF 4-6-99 Page 4 Gerry Strathman stated ali the processes were followed. The owner does have recourse against the former owner. She has a legal obligation to inform the new owner of the assessment. The situatian is that the City notified the present owner, and the work was done. Chuck Votel stated Code Enforcement can give the owner copies of the notices. Gerry Strathman recommended deny3ng the appeal and approval of the assessment. Summary Abatement Appeal for 1533 Wvnne Avenue. (File J9812AA) (Laid over from 3-16-99) No one appeazed.

(F�le J98TDBC3) (Laid over from 3-16-99) Mohamined Shahidullah, owner, appeared and stated he has been here many times. He suggested he and City staff have a meeting because he feels the City is picking at him. Gerry Strathman stated MohTmmed Shahidullah was given orders on ll-2-98 to cut the grass, the grass was not cut, and the City cut it a week later. Mr. Strathman asked why he did not cut the �ta-�3� LEGISLATIVE HEARING MINUTES OF 4-6-99 Page 2 grass. Mr. Shahidullah responded it is better that he says they aze right and he is wrong. He supports the City ordinances. Everyone has to follow the mles, but sometimes they go overboazd. Also, his health condition is getting worse. Mr. Strathman asked why Mr. Shahidullah did not hire someone cut the grass. Mr. Shahidullah responded he would like to work with the Ciry officials. Perhaps they aze misunderstanding him. There are some underlying facts that will not come up because there aze other cases to be heatd. Mr. Strathman responded he is willing to listen to Mr. Shahidullah.as long as it takes. Other people here today will have to wait their turn. However, Mr. Strathman does not understand why Mohammed Shahidullah would make the choice to not mow the grass. Mr. Shahidullah responded he did not make that choice and reiterated there are many underlying facts. Mohammed Shahidullah went on to say that false information was given to City offices. When he contests the information, it is their word against his, and the rule goes against him. He stopped calling the City because people were feeling he was bugging them. The City officiais should heaz him in an informal manner. He asked could Gerry Strathman make a recommendation that the inspectors informally meet with him. Mr. Strathman responded he has no control over the activities of Code Bnforcement. Guy Wallits reported at the last legislative hearing, a meeting was set up at noon right afterwards, but Mohammed Shahidullah did not appear. GeiYy Strathman recommended denying the appeal and approval of the assessment. The basic issue here is that notification was given to the ownet, and an opportunity was given to fix the problem. Snmmary Abatement Appeal for 297 Morton 5treet East. (File J98TDBC3) (Laid over from 3-16-99) Guy Wallits reported orders were mailed on 8-31-98 with a compiiance date of 9-2-98. Wark was done on 9-3-98. The inspectar noted that he had a phone conversation with Ken Krahn in which the summary abatemenC and work order was discussed. There were orders issued about every 3 weeks. (Guy Willits presented photographs.) Ken Krahn, owner, appeared and stated he will let Pat Okane explain because he does all the handy work. Pat Okane appeared and stated this property is a registered vacant bualding. The grass was being cut approximately every 2-3 weeks. They are in solid communication with their neighbors on both sides. The property is covered with many vines. The neighbors requested that the vines stay to help create some privacy. There is a row of wildflowers that are in the back of the property. The neighbors asked them to leave those between the gazages for privacy. a� • �� I,EGISLATIVE HEARING MINiJ1'ES OF 4-6-99 Page 3 Gerry Strathman stated these issues get started most of the time because a neighbor complains. Pat Okane responded there was a neighbor several doors down whose home was being closed down because of City code. Their child was very violent and desriuctive. The police were called several times. That building has now been shut down and the residents have moved on. The problem has now ceased. Gerry Strathman stated he can hazdly tell the d'afference between the before and after photogaphs. Ken Krahn stated the orders were issued on 8-28-98 and done by the City on 9-2-98. That seems like short notice. Mr. Krahn has 20 properties. The City's rates aze high, so if he receives a notice, there is no reason to ignore it. When he looked at the photographs, he did not see a big difference either. Gerry Strathman stated there were some bushes that needed cutting in the front. Pat Okane responded they aze a fast growing sapling. The pictures show they were trimmed back. Gercy Strathman stated technically speaking the City followed all the rules, but the time to comply was shoft. The charge assessed was $180 plus expenses. He will cut tt�e fee in half. Pat Okane stated he is frustrated. There was virtually na time to respond to thaC notice. He is dealing with people who aze at best rude. It almost sounds like a vendetta. Mr. Okane went on to say there were three other items to cover today, all on the same property. Roxanne Flink responded the other two items were already levied by the City Council. This was the only item laid over to today. Gerry Strathman recommended deleting this assessment due to an error. The other items have already been assessed by the City Council, and cannot be discussed here today. Summary Abatement Appeal for 474 Webster Street.
