PUBLIC HEARING – DELINQUENT UTILITIES/NUISANCES <br /> <br />The Mayor opened the public hearing at 6:32 p.m. <br /> <br />Mr. Paul Quale, 11568 Fetterly Lane, Minnetonka, Minnesota stated that he and his wife are <br />owners of lots at 7333 and 7329 Peltier Circle that are being assessed maintenance charges for <br />grass mowing services in the amount of $930. Mr. Quale stated that he and his wife have owned <br />the property for approximately eight (8) years and recently encountered an error on their property <br />tax statements. Anoka County refunded the overages for only three (3) years. He further stated <br />the lots provided open space and they allow individuals to utilize their property for fishing <br />without complaint and have never received a complaint from neighboring property owners. Mr. <br />Quale questioned the policing of the property due to illegal dumping of construction materials, <br />grass clipping and garbage. Mr. Quale reported that his wife has written a letter requesting that <br />the City forgive the charges for the reasons he has stated and that they were unaware of the <br />City’s requirements to maintain the property. The letter is part of the public record. <br /> <br />Council Member Fehrenbacher stated that he lives across the street and has maintained one of <br />the lots for most of the year. He noted complaints from neighbors who desire the same <br />requirements with this development as similar developments within the City, has worked with <br />Mr. Quale in the past with numerous issues regarding the property and concurs that the property <br />should follow City Code requirements. <br /> <br /> <br />
