Stronghurst board directs attorney to pursue cleanup for repeat nuisance properties
Summary
The board agreed to have the village attorney revisit enforcement for 309 South Division and add 207 South Rt 94 to the list of properties to refer to the state attorney after repeated ordinance tickets and trash violations.
The Village of Stronghurst Board discussed enforcement for properties with chronic maintenance issues at its Feb. 5 meeting and directed the village attorney to escalate action. Officials said 309 South Division has received multiple ordinance tickets and court appearances with little progress; the board asked the village attorney to pursue referral to the state attorney. The board also added 207 South Rt 94 to the enforcement list for abundant yard trash and failure to move trash cans to the road weekly.
Mayor Brendan Schaley and trustees viewed further legal action as the next step for repeat offenders; the minutes do not record a motion with a vote count for this referral but state the item will be revisited by the village attorney. The record does not specify a timeline for attorney action or subsequent hearings.
