Summary
The Board of Aldermen voted to resume issuing notices of violation to property owners who have cargo containers in unpermitted areas. The motion to restart enforcement was moved by Alderman Stewart and seconded by Alderman Meadows and passed on voice vote.
The Board of Aldermen directed staff to resume the process of sending notices of violation to property owners with cargo containers placed in areas without permits.
Alderman Stewart moved to restart the process of sending notices; Alderman Meadows seconded. After a voice vote, the mayor called for ayes; one alderman said “Nay” when asked if there were any opposed, and the chair declared “Motion carries.”
Why it matters: Aldermen said prior direction had paused enforcement; resuming notices signals the city will again require compliance or pursue enforcement remedies for unpermitted cargo containers.
Quotes: “I'd make the motion to go back to, sending notifications for cargo containers,” Alderman Stewart said when moving the motion.
Ending: Staff will begin sending notices of violation to property owners with cargo containers in unpermitted places consistent with the city’s code enforcement process; aldermen did not specify a schedule or number of properties to be cited in the meeting record.
