Owner says saplings regrew at 302 East Potter; board gives 30 days, authorizes complaint if property not cleaned
Summary
At a public hearing over nuisance violations, the owner of 302 East Potter said she had mowed the front but saplings regrew inside the lot; the board directed staff to seek the owner's consent to inspect and authorized staff to file a complaint if the lot is not brought into compliance within 30 days.
Staff told the board that 302 East Potter had previously been placed on six months’ probation and presented photos showing recurring vegetation and debris. The owner addressed the board and said she had kept the front yard mowed, noted saplings had regrown inside the lot due to heat, and said she had the property up for sale.
Board members discussed options including getting the owner’s signed consent to enter the property for a detailed inventory and to identify unplated vehicles. The owner said she is on Social Security, cannot pay fines, and asked for a written timeline. A motion authorizing staff (Jason) to file a complaint if the property is not cleaned within 30 days passed; staff will report back at the next Board of Works meeting.
