Viborg council presses for faster code-enforcement notices after delayed letters
Summary
Councilmembers raised concerns that inspection letters are mailed more than 40 days after inspections and sometimes include correction dates before the letters were sent; Finance Officer Sean Gann was asked to address the timing with Code Enforcement.
Councilmembers told staff that residents have been receiving code-enforcement letters long after the underlying inspections were completed. The transcript states residents have received letters "40 plus days" after inspections, and that some letters included correction dates that preceded the mailing date.
Mayor John Edelman and councilmembers directed Finance Officer Sean Gann to follow up with the city's code-enforcement contractor or service to identify and correct the lag in the notification process. The council recorded the concern as a procedural issue to be remedied rather than adopting new enforcement rules at this meeting.
