<br />JAN. 30, 2008 <br /> <br />TO: Dallas Larson, city Administrator <br />Mary Capra, Mayor <br /> <br />Centerville P. & Z. <br /> <br />Myself and many other citizens of Centerville are troubled <br />by the city's "selective enforcement" of various city ordinances, <br />however it might serve those who are favored or benefitted. <br />I wish at this time to cite Chapter 93.03 "Mailbox Place- <br />ment and Installation" passed as Ordinance 48 on 5-24-1989. <br />Under (B) "Grouping mailboxes and paper boxes", it states mail- <br />boxes shall be clustered in groups of not less than four nor <br />more than six. There are countless clusters in the city that are <br />in violation of this (more than six). Public Works did the <br />grouping ~a the end of Mayor early June of 1989. I know, because <br />I closed on my home on 5-31-89, and my single stand was removed <br />and the box clustered. The city's usual answer is that something <br />is "grandfathered"; that won't work here as the homes to the <br />north of mine were built in 1990 or later. <br />Also, as it relates to item (B) in Chapter 93.03, the mail- <br />boxes installed on the Banzal lots on Old Mill Road do not meet <br />the code. Less than four mailboxes are permitted if more than <br />250 feet from the properties they serve. They do not meet the <br />distance criteria. <br />As with any statute or set of standards it doesn't do any <br />good to say what we do unless we do what we say. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />- , <br />_~'-/~(; /(..'~<.~.~_,-/T, '. /"Z <br /> <br />Bob wri'ght, J~-. <br />7137 Brian Drive <br />Centerville, MN 55038 <br />(651) 426-5794 <br />
