Motion Carried. PARIQNG PROBLEM AT 15870 FENWAY AVENUE NORTH For more than three years, City staff has received complaints from residents living on Fenway Avenue in the Creekview Preserve subdivision about a resident, who continues to operate his business out of his home, thereby necessitating the parking of heavy-duty trucks and trailers on Fenway Avenue at all times of the day and night, during the week, and on weekends. Staff responded several times to the complaints raised by residents, who live on the street and fear for the safety of their children. They have voiced their strong opposition to the operation of a commercial business out of a home located in a residential neighborhood. Staff has been unsuccessful in getting the homeowner to cooperate, and to the extent he has ignored the City's request to move his operation out of his home. The City Council's adoption of the 72 -hour parking ordinance has been helpful, but this resident simply moves his trucks during that period so he does not violate the ordinance. Paul Holman, owner of the maintenance business, addressed Council stating that he leases 4,000 sq ft of space in Blaine for storage of his equipment, and he does not operate his business from his residence. He stated he does drive his dump truck home during the lunch time, and that he is in full compliance of City code. Miron made motion, Haas seconded, directing staff to provide Mr. Holman with copies of related ordinances and regulations that have been discussed so that he understands his limits for use of his property. Staff shall notify the WCSO to patrol said residence to insure compliance with City code and report to Council. All aye. Motion Carried.
