Planning staff will investigate for potential prohibited outdoor storage of materials. However, if we issue a Notice of Violation letter for this issue, it would go to the property where the materials are located. If a different property owner is storing materials on this property, that is a civil dispute, not a matter the City can enforce upon. It does not matter to the City who/what party cleans up the violation, just that the violation is resolved. Each property owner is responsible for ensuring their property remains in compliance with local code. If this issue is occurring on your property, you will be responsible for resolving the violation.
