1. PUBLIC COMMENT
Jane
Rice stated her concerns regarding the conditions of the neighborhood she lives
in at 75 E. 300 S. The property owners and renters of the properties are not
caring for the condition of the yards, sidewalks, gutters and the area in
between. There are quite a few properties on the block that have trash, stray cats, inoperable cars,
cars for sale that are parked on the grass, and the remains of people moving in
and out of homes. The weeds and trees are overgrown and out of control in the
area. Mrs. Rice cares about her own yard and the neighborhood that she lives in
and would like the City to assist her in cleaning the area or providing
citations to property owners that are not complying with City ordinances. Mayor
Piccolo requested that Mrs. Rice call the Price City Ordinance Officer with her
complaints so the issues are on record and the process of contacting the
property owners can begin. Mrs. Rice works extremely hard to care for her property
and would like to see others doing the same. Mrs. Rice suggests that the City
send a letter with the utility bills to clean their yards and comply with City
ordinances. There are nuisance and abatement ordinances already in place in
