Summary

The council directed the city attorney to send a compliance letter after a shipping container was placed at a private storage lot without a permit and a homeowner's property was damaged during placement.

Council reviewed a complaint about a shipping container moved into a St. Stephen Storage unit without a permit; the placement damaged a homeowner’s property during delivery. The clerk reported that she had contacted the storage-unit owner and the call ended with the owner hanging up. City Attorney Sue Dege was asked to send a formal letter requiring removal or compliance.

The minutes record the council’s direction to the city attorney to pursue code-enforcement action; Heather Imdieke, the city clerk, will email the storage-unit address to the attorney to initiate the letter. The item remains open until the owner responds to the city's compliance request.
