Residents present 2.5-page petition urging enforcement of Village nuisance code
Summary
Neighbors delivered a petition with "2.5 pages of signatures" asking the Village of Nassau to enter it into the record and forward it to the court; the board said the code officer has a court appearance "on the 19th" and will follow up.
Chair opened public comment and residents described longstanding debris and yard problems at a nearby home, handing the board what one resident called "2.5 pages of signatures" and asking that the petition be entered into the village record and forwarded to the court. Residents cited the Village of Nassau Property Maintenance Code ("Article 87, chapter 87") and asked why the code's nuisance enforcement steps had not progressed to forced cleanup.
Several neighbors described repeated notices, a persistent dumpster and shopping carts on the property, and health and safety concerns. The chair said the code enforcement officer is "due in court next week on the 19th" and that the board will make sure the officer has a copy of the petition so it can be presented to the judge. Residents suggested social-service follow-up for the homeowner; one speaker noted mental-health concerns but the board and commenters repeatedly emphasized they must follow legal process and court rulings.
