Board authorizes court action on three long-running junkyard violations
Summary
Code enforcement officer Ed Avery asked the board to escalate enforcement at three properties with persistent vehicle accumulations; the board accepted the code-enforcement recommendation and authorized pursuing remedies up to and including court.
Code enforcement presented three long-standing properties described as having large accumulations of vehicles and debris and recommended escalating enforcement to secure compliance.
Ed Avery, the town’s code enforcement officer, told the board the three properties (the first cited at 313 LGO Road) had not remedied violations despite repeated contact and were candidates for court action. Staff said one property’s owner is elderly and that the town attempted repeated good-faith outreach before recommending legal steps.
A board member moved to follow the code officer’s recommendation to pursue remedies, including court where necessary; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote. Staff will proceed with the next enforcement steps and report back to the board.
