This property was cited on February 20, 2009, by Code Officer Edward Loeffler for violation of
ordinance 108 -24 D. Throughout the period of non - compliance this department received a constant
flow of complaints regarding the observations. On several occasions, as code enforcement was present
for unrelated permit, fence and thrift store issues, the requirements for compliance and accruing fines
were discussed. Periodic images and supplemental affidavits of non - compliance were recorded during
routine accruing -fine status checks throughout the non - compliance period. On March 24, 2009, the
Code Enforcement Board issued an order to comply by April 7, 2009, or be fined $150.00 per day. On
April 28, 2009, the Code Enforcement Board imposed the fine and lien for non - compliance. The
location was routinely checked by Officer Loeffler and documented as non - compliant with fourteen
affidavits. On March 5, 2012, the violation was observed corrected and an affidavit of compliance was
issued.

eliminated. The Code Enforcement Board is recommending the fine /lien be reduced to $ 54,765.09,
which is the City's cost of $1,665.09, plus the accrued fine of $53,100.00 ($50.00 per day for each day
