<br />An example of how the accelerating fines would be used is: property A has junk in the front yard. A <br />letter is mailed giving the owner14 days to remove the items. A second letter is mailed after 14 days <br />with no compliance or contact from the owner. After another 14 days with no compliance or contact, a <br />third letter is mailed with a $100 fine. After another 14 days with no compliance or contact, a fourth <br />letter is mailed with a $250 fine (this is in addition to the $100 fine). After another 14 days with no <br />compliance or contact, a fifth letter is mailed with a $500 fine. Any further fines for this same case <br />would be capped at $500. It would be staff’s discretion to determine at what point a court citation may <br />be issued for non-compliance. <br /> <br />STAFF RECOMMENDATION <br />Staff recommends Council adopt Ordinances 869, 872 and 873 as follows: <br /> <br />1.
