\"This letter is manure,\" said Jenny Vitale of 3321 North Nebraska Street, referring to the written notice residents received about the inventory. Vitale told the council City of Chandler performed a lead-service inventory in 1992 and questioned why the city would again spend what staff estimated could be as much as $2 million to hire contractors to pothole on private property to find service lines. She said the city should instead prioritize aging valves and failing infrastructure that already require repair.

Vitale also raised legal concerns about entering private property without homeowner consent and described recent problems getting curb stop valves repaired at her home. She identified city staff members John Knudson and Sal (last name not stated) as staff she had spoken with about the issue and asked council to press staff to reconcile required state or federal actions with neighborhood impacts.

Vice Mayor Ellis acknowledged the concern and said staff should re-examine how the city can reconcile state agency requirements with residents' expectations. \"It is important that we go back now and backtrack and work something out,\" Ellis said. Council did not direct a formal policy change at the meeting; members asked staff to review the process and provide an update to council and residents.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","City of Chandler Council Meeting 1.23.25","oneSentenceSummary","A resident criticized a federally prompted lead service-line inventory letter and warned against invasive potholing on private property; she urged the city to prioritize valve and infrastructure repairs instead of duplicative inventories.","taxTitle","Chandler, Maricopa County, Arizona","taxId",2211,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6357593,"Resident urges Chandler enforcement of short-term rental rules at specific property",219,1783000,2002000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2213910-5ec6d97eef3628d87906f3860335cb97&start=1783&end=2002","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2213910-5ec6d97eef3628d87906f3860335cb97/thumbnail_1783000.jpg","/articles/6357593/Chandler/Maricopa-County/Arizona/Resident-urges-Chandler-enforcement-of-short-term-rental-rules-at-specific-property","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6357593-1b0ee5831de390629852343f5ebe3ed7/orig.mp4?Expires=1771204210&Signature=TzT7a0xUbSMlaR92p2yUQWKPZdFsRWeLKuARgeZhRzi8G9Kc73nx9ju5IlosWOV3N~2WNithtltPFkkf3lDzywMsWGkuT3upqLkiaxQWyNwZxAjFi9v6NXjmKYAakuKZwl2~FSl9M4yZESSQ0W3r299j1RxmUT8BvfzNqTudccbEWfJrirKKtDusYJTnxacnAAR74UZfzhxjsiSx9kKStAkixnKfcHoDCtbpFItzZQIz0sqWHB0lw3LRda0GK9KaHpkdhYcg5XCvpjjJO2VyBR6bIrMzw4XZYfYeMLcCGpLcEs6vq~xZrer7IsLbm9ghhVQTRIX1ox2SZrIdDZ2oCw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","A Chandler resident told the City Council on Jan. 23 that a short-term rental in his neighborhood has repeatedly violated the city's short-term rental rules and other city codes, and he asked the council to enforce Chapter 22 enforcement provisions he said were not being applied.

\"The property has been operating on a business license that was obtained through falsified records since July 1, 2024,\" said Paul Pavlich of 1313 East Hison Street, who provided the council with a list of alleged code-enforcement and law-enforcement incidents. Pavlich said code-enforcement case number 1026710308, opened Aug. 8, 2024, had been transferred among departments and remained unresolved.

Pavlich listed alleged violations he said include failure to notify neighbors prior to listing (Chapter 22-6.1), failure to obtain an operating license (22-3.5c), listing without required disclosures (22-7.1 and 22-7.2) and the three-violation rule (22-3.5e or 22-9). He also cited code-enforcement findings he described as including an unpermitted garage conversion and several calls for trespassing and noise disturbances.

Councilmembers did not take a formal vote on the complaint. Mayor Hartke asked staff to provide an update and a clear path to resolution. \"Staff, I would and I'm sure council would just like an update, path to resolution for, these concerns. So share with us where we're at, share with us how this is gonna be reconciled,\" the mayor said.

Councilmember Orlando asked that staff outline the process and handoffs so residents understand who is responsible at each step. No formal penalty or license revocation was recorded at the meeting; the resident requested enforcement and documentation of the city's actions.","A Chandler resident told council the city has not enforced Chapter 22 short-term rental rules against a property he says repeatedly violated code and public-safety calls; council asked staff for an update and to clarify the enforcement process.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6357598,"Chandler City Council unanimously accepts city's FY2024 audited financial report",386,1228000,1614000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2213910-5ec6d97eef3628d87906f3860335cb97&start=1228&end=1614","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2213910-5ec6d97eef3628d87906f3860335cb97/thumbnail_1228000.jpg","/articles/6357598/Chandler/Maricopa-County/Arizona/Chandler-City-Council-unanimously-accepts-citys-FY2024-audited-financial-report","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6357598-df153f95655fa7c7939ce1682b81b7e1/orig.mp4?Expires=1771204210&Signature=XdMDTmnm6dPeqxZ8Vxs37zljBA9MbaACI7aClAhAl78QeO42jXblhlRtXXjZbhUcrFBKaj~qjJnP6TR4wv8uLXd-GDAF3UoaoFHu9DDgDnvCpQebu7~CONyDofpBDw1Qhqi~vFVTMW8iuFFicYSyKCLXyfLUF062kdkWb1xhcttKrIVwyapYlQznhRgnxeZYknK59QxWNMcObIxR0148TRj07j4E-xwdaKFLHIUHW4feTnH4lDsASdBS8y1EG0uzmAmtkcF~ERWmd7iwnFjxCpu4pYcQiD3pjJGiNnrR3Zyu9vVtJy~zqDiuNac~FDvxkKZihUlUvYE-cWlBDP85sw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Chandler City Council voted unanimously Jan. 23 to adopt Resolution 5867 accepting the city's annual comprehensive financial report (ACFR) for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024.

The vote followed a presentation by the city's accounting senior manager and the audit firm's lead, who told the council the audit produced an unmodified opinion and identified no internal control deficiencies. \"The city received an unmodified audit opinion that was dated December 20, 2024. An unmodified opinion in non accounting speak is a clean opinion,\" said Joshua Jumper of Heinfeld Meech & Co., the audit firm that conducted the review. Julie Gosher, the city's accounting senior manager, introduced the item to the council.

Why it matters: an unmodified (clean) opinion and the absence of internal control deficiencies are central to demonstrating the city's financial stewardship to residents, grantors and bondholders. The council must accept the ACFR publicly under state law and federal requirements for audited entities that receive federal funds.

Heinfeld Meech & Co. reported audit procedures began in May 2024 with four on-site visits (July, August, October and November) and supplemental remote work. Jumper also told the council the audit included a single-audit review of federal dollars and other compliance procedures tied to state and federal programs. He noted the city continues to expend federal COVID-19 grant funds in FY24, which requires focused audit attention.

Councilmember Orlando moved to approve the resolution; Councilmember Poston seconded. The council took a voice vote: Vice Mayor Ellis, Councilmember Poston, Councilmember Orlando, Councilmember Harris (appearing virtually), Councilmember Hawkins and Mayor Hartke voted yes. The chair declared the motion carried unanimously.

The ACFR and related audit letters'including the auditor's communication to those charged with governance, management representation letter and single-audit reports'were included in the council's agenda packet and are posted on the city's website for public review.","Council approved Resolution 5867 to accept the annual comprehensive financial report for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024, after a presentation from the city's auditor noting a clean opinion and no internal control deficiencies.","actionData","errors"]
