Hanson August 28, 2003 Valor Enterprises Attn: Fred 3165 Spruce Street Little Canada, MN 55117 RE: CUP Compliance Dear Fred: In continued efforts to work with you to bring your property into compliance, I wanted to send you a letter on the current status. The City issued you a temporary license for the month of July 2003 to make efforts towards your CUP compliance. Joel Hanson, City Administrator and myself met with you at the property on July 31, 2003 to go over your progress. To that point, you had reduced the number of cars and removed almost all the items being stored outdoors. At this meeting, it was explained to you that this progress showed promise towards compliance, but not compliance. The decision was made to issue you a license for the remainder of the license year as long as progress was being made and the site was eventually brought into compliance. You were informed of the items still needing eorreetioit inorder to make your site compliant. You indicated the existing CUP did not meet your business needs and you would need to revise your CUP terms. We set a meeting with you and the City Planner, Steve Gritfman, on August 18 to go over your plans. You did not show for this meeting. I called you on that Monday and you said you were not ready. I explained parC of continuing to operate your business with the license, was you needed to show progress towards compliance. On the phone, I explained that the deadline for filing for a CUP amendment was Monday, August 25. You said you would be in by that deadline, but would need help filling out the paperwork. I told you if you brought in the plans, we could help with the paperwork. Reminding you several times that the deadline was Monday. You assured me there was no problem and you would be in to fill out the papers. As of today, we have not received any paperwork or application for a CUP amendment and you have not contacted my office to make other arrangements. The next deadline for the next CUP amendment cycle is Monday, September 22. You have until that deadline to get your paperwork submitted for the amendment or bring the property into compliance with the current CUP approved. If I do not hear from you, the City will take further enforcement action for violation of the current CUP. Sincerely, Jessica Jagoe Code Enforcement Officer
