Inspector Essling reported that the assessment for 694 Ivy Avenue East is for clean-up of accumulated refuse, including garbage bags from the southeast end of the property between the fence and the alley. Orders were mailed December 15, 2010 with a compliance date of December 19, 2010. A re-check was done on December 20, 2010 and found to be in non-compliance. A Work Order was sent to Parks and the work was done on December 29, 2010 at a cost of $288 plus a service charge of $140 for a total of $428. The Notice was mailed to Lisa Carnero, 694 Ivy Avenue East.
Ms. Carnero said that when she got the letter was right after the big snow storm. She tried to pick up the bags of leaves but they would just tear. Finally, when the weather warmed up around February 15, 2011, she was able to clean it all up. Ms. Moermond noted that the City did a clean-up, as well, on December 29, 2010.
The video was viewed showing the pick-up.
Ms. Moermond will recommend approval of the assessment.
