Mr. Robinson stated orders were issued on October 31, 2008, refuse, trash and a recliner on the
front deck with a compliance date of November 7. The property was re-inspected on November 7
and the work had not been done. A work order was sent to the Parks Deparhnent who did the work
on November 8, 2008 for a total assessment of $219. There was no returned mail.
Kent Peterson, property owner, stated he called his tenant when he received the letter from the City
and told him to remove the items. He later went to the property and everything had been removed
except for the bottom of the recliner which was pushed up against the garage.
Ms. Moermond asked to see the video which showed what appeared to be the bottom part of a chair.
She said she believed a good-faith effort had been made; therefore, she recommended reducing the
assessment from a total of $219 to a total of $125.
1122 Minnehaha Avenue East (J0821A)
No one appeared; Ms. Moermond recommended approving the assessment.
ll59 Universitv Avenue West (J0821A)
Mr. Robinson stated orders were issued on October 13, 2008 to remove litter from the lot and along
the alley and to cut tall grass and weeds with a compliance date of October 13. The property was
re-inspected on October 13 and was not in compliance. Two work orders were sent to the Parks
Department who cut the tall grass and weeds on October 16, 2008 for a total assessment of $551.
Van Anh Hoang, appeared on behalf of the property owner, Vietnam Center. Ms. Hoang stated that
this was a non-profit agency and building was on the corner by a bus stop. They were only open
during business hours during the week and constantly had people throwing litter on their property.
She claimed that they had a maintenance person to maintain the property.
Ms. Moermond asked to see the video which showed tall grass, but mostly weeds, growing azound
the building and tluough the cracks in the sidewalk as well as some scattered litter which was
removed. Ms. Moermond stated that it appeared the weeds had been growing for quite some time
and asked why they had not been cut back.
Ms. Hoang again stated that they were a non-profit agency and did have a maintenance person tend
to the property. Ms. Moermond stated that she would recommend reducing the assessment from a
total of $551 to a total of $235 since it appeared the litter had basically been cleaned up.
