Dear City of Tigard
Regarding the notice we received dated April 19, 2021 related to Code Compliance Record Number
NCC2021-00065. Within the document, a compliant is outlined and documented with two code
violations cited. Our property is not out of compliance and we believe this was submitted as an effort
of retaliation by a neighbor. We have outlined below the specific codes cited and our demonstrated
adherence to each.
• Noise Limits — There is no noise produced from our property which would violate the noise
limits as outlined in the code
• Prohibited Noises (Animals, Birds) — We do not house animals or birds which create noises
that are deemed prohibited. We do have trees on our property which invite wild birds which we
all share space with.
Unfortunately, I believe these complaints were submitted in retaliation unrelated to any activities on
our property and is wasteful of the city's time and resources. We have lived on this property for over
10 years, next to the same neighbor. There have been changes in the dynamics in that particular
home and the behavior of that neighbor has become more inconsiderate and rude. There are several
opportunities to report city code violations as well as trespass activities which we had explicitly asked
her to not do. We chose to not report these items as she is our neighbor and we did not want to
deteriorate the relationship any further for something trivial. Given the efforts that we have had to
extend in order to defend something that isn't occurring, would it be in our best interest to start
reporting any and all inappropriate activity which violates laws and/or city code?
I
