Summary

Code enforcement presented its weekly report and the board voted to place a $1,500 fine on the repeat-violation property at 413–415 13th Street after multiple cleanups and unpaid fines; staff said a new process allows fines to be placed on property records.

Code enforcement presented the weekly enforcement report (inspections, notices and tagged vehicles) and described repeat issues at 413 and 415 13th Street. The officer said the property has required multiple cleanups in less than a year and recommended escalating penalties; "I'd like to see the 1,500 placed on it," code enforcement said, arguing the increase might prompt action.

The chair moved to place a $1,500 fine for multiple violations at the property; the board approved the motion. Staff said a revised process now allows fines to be recorded on property and better enforces unpaid cleanup costs rather than letting liens sit unpaid until property transfer.
