515 Little Canada Road, Little Canada, MN 55117 -1600 <br />(612) 484 -2177 / FAX: (612) 484 -4538 <br />MEMORANDUM <br />TO: Mayor Fahey & Members of the City Council <br />FROM: Dave Harris, Public Works Superintendent <br />DATE: May 18, 1995 <br />RE: Nuisance Abatement Ordinance <br />MAYOR <br />Michael I. Fahey <br />COUNCIL <br />Beverly Scaize <br />Jim LaValle <br />Steve Mercian <br />Bob Pedersen <br />ADMINISTRATOR <br />Joel R Hanson <br />As you may remember, staff has been working on trying to amend <br />the nuisance ordinance so that we may minimize Council <br />involvement. After discussing this at length with the City <br />Attorney, the following changes are what the Attorney is <br />recommending: <br />The main changes are in maximum time of removal which <br />changes from 30 days down to 10 days. Non - compliance will <br />be reported to the City Administrator instead of the City <br />Council. However, the Council will still have to order the <br />abatement which can be done on the consent agenda. <br />Another change would be for re- couping the fees and the <br />administrative costs. It is no longer considered a special <br />tax. However, the City can certify collection to the county <br />auditor in the same manner as taxes and special assessments. <br />If you have any questions, feel free to contact me at your <br />earliest convenience. <br />DBH:kpv <br />Page 60 <br />
