Re: Mowing at Shadywood Road Parcel 17-117-23 24 0013
Dear Mr. Stodola:
City staff have concluded that the provisions of Municipal Code Sec. 9.55, Subd. 2 requiring that
the property be mowed will apply to the above referenced parcel, as follows:
1. The triangular land portion of the property that is surrounded by the Kosek's yard is the only
portion that must have grass and weeds maintained at a height of not more than 6 inches.
This area must be maintained because it has historically been maintained as yard area, and
lack of such maintenance is a nuisance to the Kosek's. Further,the property is not in one of
the zoning categories exempted from such requirements.
2. We are unaware of any other property in Orono for which the requirements of 9.55 Subd. 2
have been enforced yet which has no means of access except by water. Because enforcement
of this requirement would place an undue burden on you, it will only be enforced if you are
able to gain access over the Kosek's property. If the Kosek's refuse you access for mowing,
we will not enforce the mowing requirement.
We believe this solution is fair to both parties and hopefully will resolve the matter. If you have any
questions, please contact me or Inspector Matt Bolterman at 952-249-4600.
Sincerely,
Michael P. Ga fron
