Code enforcement clarifies Woulf Avenue retaining‑wall process and tightens complaint intake
Summary
Code Enforcement Officer Pete Edwards told the board the retaining‑wall complaint on Woulf Avenue followed normal procedure, that the resident was given extra time to clean the property, and that future complaints will require a written submission so the town keeps records.
Pete Edwards, the Town’s Code Enforcement Officer, addressed rumors about a retaining wall violation on Woulf Avenue and explained the enforcement timeline, court directive and new administrative steps for complaints.
Edwards said the violation notice was processed the same day he received the complaint, that the resident initially had 30 days to comply and later was granted time to ‘‘surface clean’’ with the judge allowing spring work on the retaining wall. He told the board that going forward he will not accept verbal complaints and requires residents to fill out the online or in‑office complaint form so the code clerk can log it in software. Edwards defended staff work, saying, "nobody is scamming or stealing," and praised Assessor Jessica Eggsware for help with the department’s computer program.
