Council authorizes contractor to remove nuisance tree behind 505 S. Wabash
Summary
Council authorized the city administrator to hire a contractor to abate a nuisance tree at 505 S. Wabash after staff presented photos showing damage to a neighbor's property and obstruction of utilities; the motion carried unanimously.
The City of Altamont authorized the city administrator to secure a contractor to abate a nuisance tree behind the property at 505 S. Wabash Avenue after staff presented photos showing the trees had damaged a neighbor’s property, obstructed access to city utilities and presented health and safety concerns.
City Administrator Myers presented the condition report and images for council review. Councilmember Lyle Sykes moved to authorize abatement and Councilmember Tyler Julich seconded; the motion carried. The council’s action empowers the administrator to proceed with contractor selection and abatement rather than directing staff to pursue additional notice or alternative remedies at this meeting.
The council did not record an estimated cost in the minutes; staff will handle procurement and notify council of contractor selection and any associated costs at a future meeting.
