West P Code Enforcement Division POLIEE 110101 e ice • A written warning for the violation of parking in the front yard was posted on this property by Officer Jim Flannigan on Dec 23, 2013. • On Feb 3, 2014, after I observed vehicles parked in the front yard, I spoke with the resident, Ms. Rivera, issued her a second written warning and spent approximately 30 minutes with her explaining the city code. A brochure on constructing Designated Parking Areas was also provided. During our conversation, Ms Rivera told me that she was not the homeowner, that the homeowner was relative who was living in Puerto Rico. P Code Enforcement Division POLIEE 110101 e ice • On Feb 21, 2014, I again observed vehicles parked in the front yard . I again made contact with Ms Rivera who told me she was trying to control the parking but the other residents would not obey her. I again spent about a half an hour with her discussing the city code and the possible consequences if the violations continued . She again claimed she was unable to control the other residents. I let her know that this would be the last warning and, if I was forced to issue citations, they would be issued to the homeowner. P Code Enforcement Division POLIEE 110101 e ice • On February 28, 2014, I again observed vehicles parked on the front lawn . I issued a city citation and mailed it, certified mail, to the home owner, Hector R. Rivera, whose address with the tax collector is listed as 120 N . Edgemon . This mail was received and signed for on March 1, 2014. • March 5, 2014, I once again observed vehicles parked on the front lawn . A second citation was mailed to Mr. Rivera via certified mail and signed for on March 7, 2014. P Code Enforcement Division POLIEE Or 110101 e ice • On March 8, Code Officer Christi Flannigan reported that Lucy Rivera had come to the police station to pay the citations. Code Officer Flannigan reported that Ms. Rivera was again given a copy of the brochure on creating Designated Parking Areas and that Ms. Rivera said the homeowner was living in Puerto Rico. • Between March 11 and April 1, 2014, I observed two more violations. • A notice of code board hearing was mailed to the homeowner on April 10, 2014 and signed for on April 12, 2014. • On the afternoon of April 12, I observed two more vehicles parked in the front yard. P Code Enforcement Division POLIEE 110101 ice • While Ms. Rivera claims she is trying to correct the violations, other residents of the home have been openly hostile and have repeatedly refused to comply. • As near as I can tell, all certified mail sent to Mr. Rivera has been signed for and opened by someone else at the address. I have had no communication from Mr. Rivera himself and have been unable to get a forwarding address. ; ,5 ,i,h,A, Code Enforcement Division POU€F v .r iaios ► , , - _ ` ,' n 0y} ..' . �, / F` 1 1 ' 0 r. iiiP- y -,> ,4 Y _ -... . , r',f: 4,5,-.
