10. Citywide Community Clean UpDate: 9-4-19 To: Scandia City Council Members From: Mayor Christine Maefsky Re: Community Clean Up Support Some of our denser neighborhoods have repeated complaints of ordinance nuisance violations. This is a burden on our deputy, as well as other residents of the neighborhoods. One resident of such a neighborhood has asked about the possibility of the city sponsoring a clean up day or weekend. He is suggesting a few dumpsters and volunteers to supervise them; perhaps a city-staffed tractor with a bucket or claw. Notification could be given to residents of the neighborhood, outlining some of the common violations and giving notice that things need to be corrected/cleaned up by a certain date before citations will be issued. The clean up event would be promoted as the City’s way of encouraging their compliance. I had told the resident that we would wait for a new administrator to be hired before taking up this request, but that I would bring it before the city council for your initial reaction and discussion.
