Charter Commission Report <br /> Feb 13, 2007 <br /> Page 2 <br /> • Request: <br /> What staff seeks is an amendment to the City Charter to provide authority to the City to <br /> certify unpaid administrative offense fines to a homeowner's property taxes after an <br /> opportunity has been provided to the property owner to be heard by the City Council, as is <br /> the case with other certifications. <br /> This is an important amendment as it would provide the City with an ability to begin to cover <br /> its costs for time-consuming code enforcement activity but more importantly would provide a <br /> very real incentive to those who have been cited to correct the violations in a timely manner. <br /> Attached to this report is a draft ordinance prepared by Scott Riggs, the Mounds View City <br /> Attorney, for the Commission's consideration. <br /> If you should have any questions for us prior to the meeting regarding the City's code <br /> enforcement policies or procedures, please do not hesitate to contact me at 763-717-4021 or <br /> Mr. Anderson at 763-7170-4023. <br /> Respectfully submitted, <br /> • <br /> James Ericson <br /> Community Development Director <br /> • <br />
