In accordance with the City's abatement procedures in Section 602.05 of the City Code, a <br />certified letter was mailed to the Property Owner of record after each inspection. Based on the <br />abatement procedures, the Property Owner was mailed a final notice, and this notice was posted <br />on the front door of the Subject Property with a compliance date of August 1, 2024. On August <br />2nd, staff conducted an inspection, and no corrective action has been taken in the rear yard. The <br />final abatement notice hand delivered to the Property Owner on August 51h identified that if <br />corrective action was not taken by the stated deadline, the City Council would hold a hearing on <br />August 12, 2024, to order the abatement of the above -described nuisance. <br />Staff has included as part of this report the 2020-2022 aerial maps from Ramsey County GIS that <br />show this area in the rear yard along Glenpaul Ave had been previously maintained. <br />An abatement order allows the City to hire a contractor to complete the work on the property and <br />charge the cost back to the property owner. The charge is 125 percent of the cost of the work <br />including administrative costs.
