Property owner battles city over tenant eviction delays
In a recent government meeting, property owner Mohammed Mamun addressed ongoing issues with a tenant at his rental property, Msno Properties, LLC. Mamun reported that he has been attempting to evict the tenant for over a year due to repeated violations of city codes, specifically concerning outside storage. Despite multiple notices and promises from the tenant to vacate, the situation remains unresolved.

Mamun explained that the tenant was supposed to move out by the first quarter of this year but failed to do so. He has documented several notices given to the tenant, indicating a long-standing struggle to resolve the matter amicably. The tenant's continued presence has led to a citation for outside storage, with the city now imposing a daily fine of $150 until compliance is achieved.

City officials acknowledged the challenges faced by Mamun but emphasized the need for immediate action to rectify the violations. They expressed willingness to grant a 90-day extension for the tenant to vacate, but reiterated that the daily fines would continue during this period. The city has received multiple complaints regarding the property, escalating the issue to the mayor's office.

Mamun requested leniency from the city regarding the fines, arguing that he has already incurred significant costs in trying to manage the situation. However, city officials maintained that the priority is to ensure compliance and clean up the property, which has been a source of ongoing nuisance.

The meeting concluded with the city issuing a $150 fine starting from July 18, which will continue until the property is brought into compliance. Mamun was informed that he could later request a reduction of the fine once the issues are resolved.
