The plan is to continue fining the property until they bring it into compliance. The fines have been escalating in value each time a new one is sent out. Fines are currently set at $300 each . All unpaid fines will be assessed against the property and added to their 2018 taxes. I have been sending out a new fine at regular intervals but the Code does allow me to increase the interval if we don't get compliance.
I'm hoping that the property owner will reach out to me and set up a timeline for bringing the property into compliance since chances are it will need to be a spring project.

We have not been successful in getting voluntary compliance through code enforcement letters and small fines. The fines have not been paid and will therefore be added to the property taxes as assessments.
I will send the property owner letting them know that we expect this issue to be resolved this spring. If he does not enter into an agreement to correct the violation by a mutually agreeable date, the City can begin issuing daily fines.
