PID# 283023310030 <br />Dear Property Owner: <br />The City recognizes that many times a resident may not be aware that the City has regulations <br />that are designed to protect neighborhoods and their quality of life. On 6/23/2016, the City of <br />Arden Hills investigated a complaint and inspected your property. It was determined that there is a <br />violation of the City Code: <br />VIOLATION(S): <br />1)Long plant growth at 3736 Brighton Way S. <br />2) Large brush pile at 3736 Brighton Way S. <br />Public Nuisance. 602.02 Subd. 6, Plant Growth: All noxious weeds and other growths of <br />vegetation upon public or private property in excess of eight (8) inches. <br />Public Nuisances. 602.02 Subd. 9, Debris, Garbage: Accumulation of manure, tree <br />branches, cut trees, grass clippings, bottles, rubbish, trash, refuse, junk and other abandoned <br />materials, metals including aluminum or tin cans, or lumber. <br />CORRECTIONS(S): <br />1) Mow and maintain plant growth to less than 8” inches for the year. <br />2) Properly remove the brush from the property. <br />Please take the necessary corrective action by the close of the business day on 7/8/2016, to <br />remediate the above violation(s). <br />If the violation is not remediated by the required date, the City will order abatement as allowed under <br />Section 602.07, Accelerated Abatement Procedure, of the Arden Hills City Code. An abatement order <br />allows the City to have the necessary work completed to remediate the nuisance and charge 125 <br />percent of the cost of the work, including administrative costs, back to the property owner. The <br />charges can be certified against the property for collection with taxes if they are unpaid. The <br />abatement process is not the City’s preferred course of action. We would prefer to work with you to <br />resolve this violation. <br />If the violation is not remediated by 7/8/2016,, the City Council will hold an abatement hearing at <br />their regular meeting scheduled for Monday, 7/11/2016,, at 7:00 pm. You have the right to <br />attend the hearing. The City Council may order the nuisance to be abated if corrective action is not <br />taken, and the order to abate may continue for up to two years. <br />If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact me at (651) 792.7813 or <br />rward@cityofardenhills.org. Thank you in advance for you cooperation. <br />Sincerely, <br />Rob Ward <br />Building Official / Temporary Code Enforcement Officer
