Rothbury council directs certified letter to Green Lawn Trailer Park owner over enforcement
Summary
After discussing governance at Green Lawn Trailer Park, the Rothbury Village Council directed Planning Commission Chair Mike Harris to send a certified letter, including a copy of an earlier notice, to the park owner so the village can pursue ordinance enforcement and legal review.
The Rothbury Village Council on July 16 directed Planning Commission Chair Mike Harris to send a certified letter to the owner of Green Lawn Trailer Park to advance enforcement of village ordinances.
Chief Ethan Walker told the council that legal counsel should be consulted to address enforcement's legal aspects. "I recommend communication with legal counsel to address any legalities on enforcement of ordinances," Walker said during the meeting.
After that recommendation, the council advised Harris to send a certified letter that includes a copy of the previous correspondence to the trailer park owner as the next step in moving enforcement forward. Mike Harris, who also serves as Planning Commission Chair, relayed recent communications about local development matters earlier in the meeting but was instructed specifically to handle the certified-letter step for the park.
The minutes do not record the owner's response or any timetable for follow-up; the council did not document a formal vote on the action beyond the instruction to send the letter. The record shows the direction was given during routine council business and does not indicate whether the village attorney had yet been consulted.
