HomeMy WebLinkAboutRE_ NCC2025-00115 to complainant 6-12-20251 From:Ken Ross Sent:Thursday, June 12, 2025 7:48 AM To:Jung Kim Subject:RE: NCC2025-00115 Good Morning Jung, We have an established code compliance protocol that must be followed. The responsible party has 20 days to respond after they receive the code compliance violation notice. We send the complainant letter out the same day as the violation notice so that you can accurately track the 20-day timeframe for compliance. If, after that 20-day period, the reported property owner continues to engage in code compliance violations, please let us know. At that point, we will reach back out to the reported property owner and proceed with the next phase of the code compliance process. Regarding altercations or hostile behavior from your neighbors, that is a police matter and falls outside the scope of Code Compliance. If you need assistance dealing with aggressive or threatening behavior, please call 911 or Tigard Police non-emergency at 503-629-0111. More information is available on their website: Tigard Police Contact Information If excessive noise continues, please contact Tigard Police non-emergency to request intervention, and follow up with me afterward. If you have any additional questions, feel free to call me at 503-718-2581. Thank you again for your continued patience and assistance.

I do not expect a favorable response. We happen to be outside when they received the initial letter and they said (not knowing we were outside that “they can fuck right off. What we do on our property is none of their business”. We would like to escalate as quickly and severely as possible. We were met with aggression when we and the other neighbors asked them to try to stop their dogs from barking and have been dealing with this particular issue for about a year on top of the barking. 2 Sent from my iPhone On Jun 11, 2025, at 5:31 PM, Ken Ross <kenro@tigard-or.gov> wrote: Hi Jung, Thank you for the follow-up and for providing the photos. We’ve forwarded the images to the reported property owner and requested a response. If the respondent continues to challenge the claims, we may conduct a site visit to verify the conditions. That said, I’m hopeful the photos you provided will encourage the owner to address the reported concern. We appreciate your willingness to assist with the code compliance process, including offering third-party verification and access for an inspection. I’ll keep your offer in mind as we monitor the situation. Thank you again for your continued support.

I'm also more than happy to let an inspector come to the house to see the first hand as well. Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help get this resolved.

We can then share these with the property owner as part of our investigation. If you have any questions, please feel free to call me at 503-718-2581.

Learn why this is important 5 I'm following up regarding reference record number NCC2025-00115. Here is the link for a video from today June 11, 2025, after the 20 day correction window given by your team. Please see letter below dated 5/21/25. As you can clearly see, the neighbor has continued to collect their two large dog's waste along the shared fence. The pile is about 6 feet long, 10 inches tall and about 2 feet wide and is so large that it's rotting the fence. The orange handled poop scooping tool is clearly visible against the fence along the pile. The pile is about 3 feet from my back porch. As you can imagine the smell is terrible and I'm sure the waste is leaching into the seasonal stream that runs under the property. Both myself and the neighbors on the other side of the problem house have asked politely to fix the problem along with the excessive barking and were met with aggression. Please assist us in getting this resolved. We've been trying to get it addressed for about a year.
