Summary

A resident told the council the Danberg development-related code case has been unresolved for about two years despite a magistrate final order and said he received a cease-and-desist letter; he asked the council and City Manager Brown for an update.

During public requests at the Dec. 9 workshop, resident Jonathan Ungehan addressed the council about an ongoing code-enforcement matter related to the Danberg corporation and an adjacent mixed-use project.

Ungehan said he was the original complainant in the code case and that the matter has been active about two years despite a special magistrate issuing a final order. He asserted the respondent "dropped their appeal" and said it is "concerning that this council hasn't brought it up again to resolve these issues." He also said he received a cease-and-desist from counsel allegedly intended to silence his public comments and asked for the city manager and council to explain the city's stance and next steps.

The council did not provide an immediate substantive response in the workshop transcript; the mayor closed the public-request period and the council proceeded to other business. Ungehan said he would not be representing any company and that his remarks were personal.

The transcript records the allegation and the request for city follow-up; it does not record any staff response or new action at the workshop.
