Jim Bessett came to discuss a code enforcement complaint on behalf of his mo�ther. Her
neighbor's fence is considerably outside the property line, making it diffiicult to get in and out of
her driveway. He first made the complaint in April 2014, He spoke with Nathan Poplawsl<i,
Code Enforcement Officer,and was told they will go and investigate the issue but they do not
give complainants updates on their complaint. He then went back to Code Enforcement in
December 2014, made a Public Records Request, and found that he had forwarded this
complaint to Public Works. When they didn't get back to him within a week,the file was closed
and no action was taken, In the meantime, the property owner has planted flowers and shrubs
and placed boulders in the area. He then filed a second complaint in December, 2015 and went
to the Planning Department to discuss it. He was told the complaint was closed because it is a
Public Works issue. Mr. Bessett wasn't notified that the complaint was closed as this is not their
I process. Mr. Bessett told Mr. Poplawsl<i that he will go to the Commissioners and discuss this
issue. Property in question is 252 Moses Lake Ave., Soap Lake (Lakeview Park).
Commissioner Stevens stated they spoke with Public Works and the fence was not an issue.
Damien Hooper, Planning Director,stated they notified Public Works as they are the
department to remedy the encroachment. Public Works investigated and they had no issue
, with the fence. If there are now boulders and flowers,this is a new issue. Mr. Bessett showed
the Commissioners where the property was located on a map.
Commissioner Stevens said they will speal<to Public Works tomorrow and get bad<to him.
