City announces ten-day beautification amnesty; enforcement planned on roosters and nuisance vehicles
Summary
City Administrator Max Baker announced a ten-day beautification event with an amnesty for code violations followed by stricter enforcement; he also reported code-enforcement actions identifying two roosters and six problematic vehicles and plans to request towing assistance from Oakridge.
City Administrator Max Baker told the council the city will run a ten-day beautification event beginning Saturday, with Parks Cleanup Day on the first Saturday; the city will provide garbage, recycling and green-waste bins and staff or volunteers to ensure proper sorting. Baker described the period as an "amnesty for code violations," after which the city plans stricter enforcement and tracking of activities through the maintenance module for annual reporting to council.
On enforcement activity, Baker said he had conducted a round of enforcement and identified two roosters that generated multiple complaints and six problematic vehicles, three of which were at a recurring location; he plans to pursue the full enforcement process professionally and request towing and tagging assistance from Oakridge. Baker also noted he will do another vegetation drive-through because recent weather patterns caused unusually tall weeds and grass growth throughout the area.
