.ver MEMORANDUM To Lori Johnson FROM Dave Hetrick DATE June 3, 2010 Subject: History of Swimming Pool Enforcement I received a complaint in April of 2008, about an in ground swimming pool without a fence. Elk River City Ordinance, Sec. 30- 1042, requires a 4' high fence with a lockable gate for all in ground swunmuig pools. The owner of the property is Brian Hansen and the address is 19545 Elgin St. which is in the Windsor Oak Hill development. I verified the complaint on April 24, 2008 and sent a notice of violation on the same day. That first notice had a due date of May 4, 2008. A follow up inspection was done and determined that no work had been done. A second notice of violation was sent on May 21, 2008 with a due date of June 2, 2008. That notice also included a reminder to get a final inspection on the pool since a building permit had been issued for the pool in 2004. On that permit, only one inspection had been done for location of pool. No other inspections have been done including important gas testing for heating of the pool. On June 3, 2008, I determined that no work had been done. It should be noted that it was around this time that the City began work on its administration citation process but it was not approved until 2009. The next complaint came in June of 2009, with an inspection the same day. Once again, no work had been done. A citation was than sent on June 26, 2009 with a $500 fine. No correspondence was made in the required 7 day period after the citation was issued. I did contact Mr. Hanson on July 7, 2009 and he assuxed me that he would put a fence up at once. I told him that I would temporarily waive the citation and to keep me informed of any delays. I received no calls or letters from Mr. Hansen the rest of that year.
