Council updates nuisance notice rules to allow regular mail or posting
Summary
An ordinance amending nuisance code sections to permit regular mail, personal service or property posting (instead of mandatory certified mail) was approved after a planning board recommendation; no public comments were raised during the hearing.
TIPP CITY, Ohio — Tipp City Council voted to amend city code sections 94.42, 94.6 and 94.62 to change how the city provides notice to property owners for nuisance violations related to grass, weeds and property cleanup.
City Manager Ryan Green said the changes — recommended by the planning board — remove a strict requirement for certified mail and allow the city to use regular mail, personal service or posting on the property to notify owners. Proponents said the amendment streamlines enforcement and reduces administrative burden while preserving notice options.
No members of the public spoke during the public hearing and the clerk called the roll; council approved the ordinance on a unanimous vote.
What happens next: The updated notice options will be incorporated into code enforcement procedures and applied to future nuisance cases.
