The subject property is under remediation and is being actively worked / monitored by Codes Enforcement.

Thank you for your asssistance. Remediation must be a very long process. I had high hopes this property would start looking better after the sale months ago. But, no such luck. It continues to be even more of an eyesore. I think I saw the lawn/weeds get mowed once. Other than that, I have seen no progress.

Unfortunately, remediation is frequently a lengthy process and the City has limited ability to encourage the property owner is move expeditiously, provided that they are working on the property in somme capacity.

For issues such as those involved with the subject property, under State Law it takes a minimum of 90 days from the date a violation notice is issued before the City can bring a property owner before the Codes Enforcement Board to face potential fines. If the property owner addresses issues prior to the end of the 90-day period the clock has to be reset until a new notice of violation is issued. The same is true if ownership of the property changes.

In truth, with respect to general property maintenance issues most homeowners associations have more power than do local governments. The exception being if a threat to health and safety exists.

Thank you for the information and your assistance. Your efforts are appreciated. As an HOA Board member, I know what you mean about HOA's having more power. And, even with that power, it is still sometimes hard to get homeowners to comply. Good luck!

No violations of City Code remain present at this time.
